From the Trenches DETERMINATION Yesterday, I determined that I needed to be able to use all my closet. Always in the past, when I have tackled organizing, cleaning project, it has seemed like it looked worse afterward than when I began. I would always pull everything out and get completely overwhelmed and even though I might get "close" to finishing, I never could actually finish. This time it was different. Armed with the knowledge that I must NOT pull out more than I could deal with effectively and that I absolutely must NOT quit until I had accomplished my goal, I DID IT. I determined that all I wanted to do was to make a path to the other side of the closet. I pulled out just what I needed to and dealt with it as I went along. I just kept plugging along until I got the area looking nice. It was highly motivating and I really hated to stop and go to bed. ---------------------------------- 9.
