Over the past decade, I’ve been taking steps to simplify and make life easier—and this morning, as I scribbled a gratitude list in my journal, I realised just how far I’ve come.
Even when I have a lot on my plate, life runs pretty smoothly now. It’s like I’ve sanded down most of the rough edges and now I can flow through my days without too much resistance.
Of course, this isn’t to say that my life is perfect or that it’s always easy (I still deal with lots of big things like raising a toddler and running a business) but a lot of the everyday stuff is definitely easier than it was before.
Some of it is good fortune (a mix of luck and privilege) but a lot of it’s by design too. Looking back, there are definitely some specifics things that have helped me so I thought I’d sum them up for you in a blog post.
Here are 15 simple ways to make life easier—I hope you find something to inspire you!
