The FlyLady 27-Fling Boogie is one of the BEST declutter methods for folks who are completely overwhelmed by all the chaos in their lives. We’ve all had fantasies of setting the house on fire and starting all over.
Life happens and it can completely overwhelm us. Do not despair, it’s time for the FlyLady 27-Fling Boogie.
This decluttering method is just like it sounds – you pure your life of 27 things a day. Wow that’s a big number, yes it is. The good news is that it’s really easy to chuck 27 things out every day.
First things first, start with shining your sink. FlyLady’s secret starts with creating a solid foundation. A shiny sink gets you in the right frame of mind to begin decluttering your space. To shine your sink, simply mix baking soda and water into a paste and spread it over the sink. Baking soda is fantastic because it is great at removing food stains, grease and water deposits.
Let’s get into the FlyBaby groove –
FlyLady knows that you feel and act more deliberately when you dress for the part from shoes to shirt. This gets you in the right mindset to fly.
BabySteps are a must.
Your home did not get cluttered up in one day, and it won’t get all shiny in one day either.
- Declutter 15 minutes a day – set a timer and declutter something for 15 minutes, and please simply stop when the timer goes off!
- When cleaning your home please, please take breaks. Take 15-minute breaks after a round of decluttering to rest your mind, calm yourself, and then plan what you want to do next.
- Create your own FlyLady Journal – The control journal is our own personal manual for listing and keeping track of your routines.
Now follow, follow, follow, the FlyLady’s 11 commandments –
1. Keep your sink clean and shiny.
2. Get dressed every morning, even if you don’t feel like it.
3. Do your morning and before bedtime routine everyday.
4. Don’t allow yourself to be sidetracked by the computer.
5. Pick up after yourself. If you get it out, put it away.
6. Don’t try to do two projects at once. ONE JOB AT A TIME.
7. Don’t pull out more than you can put back in one hour.
8. Do something for yourself everyday, maybe every morning and night.
9. Work as fast as you can to get the job done. This will give you more time to play later.
10. Smile even when you don’t feel like it. It is contagious. Make your mind up to be happy and you will be.
11. Don’t forget to laugh everyday. Pamper yourself, you deserve it.
Remember learning to fly takes time. Don’t get overwhelmed, take it slow. Break down your goals into bite sized chunks. Distill down your goals into realistic small steps. Make adjustments setting achievable goals first and then set more ambitious goals going forward.
