14 Louise’s tips for an easier life Bring on 2014 and All it has to Offer! One of the greatest perks of my job is being able to make a real difference to people. Established in November 2011, I have been working as a Lifestyle & Home Assistant in Bristol for over two years now and I can truly say that I have helped people turn their lives around. Whether I’ve been de‐cluttering or being another pair of hands to ensure a house move goes smoothly, I have seen many times over the benefits of helping people turn tasks from ‘overwhelming’ to ‘accomplished’. It has been an absolute privilege and a joy to help people at key moments in their lives. I have met a wonderful variety of people and developed some really useful contacts from interior designers, to caterers and carpenters. When you book my time to help you with a task or chore, I can recommend the right people to help provide the solution. Now that we are in the new year, it’s an excellent time to take stock; to reflect on last year’s events and have a think about what you’d like to achieve in 2014. Last year I mentioned eight sub‐headings that I use to help me focus my thoughts: · Friends & Family · Relationships · Health & Fitness · Travel · Education & Self‐Development · Spiritual · Finance · House & Home
In the interests of practising what I preach, I met with my friend back in December and we compiled our lists. We committed our Resolutions to paper ‐ each taking a piece of A3 paper and concertina‐ing it into eighths (that’s in half, in half again and in half again) and wrote a heading on each section. We will review our lists every few months – supporting each other in getting the items ticked off the lists and feeling a sense of achievement. We also looked through some magazines and cut out pictures that inspired us. Again we took a piece of A3 each and stuck the pictures on to create a vision board for 2014. Perhaps you are more of a creative and visual person, rather than a written list person, in which case this could really work for you. So, whatever you’ve got on the cards for 2014, call me for a no‐obligation chat and find out some of the ways that I can make life simpler for you! Think of me as the extra hours in your day. I have a broad repertoire of skills and my services are really flexible and completely bespoke. From once a month, once a week or just a one‐off, I offer a professional service to fit in with your life and, most importantly, to make your life easier! Happy New Year and bring on 2014!
