oes your home fit your current lifestyle? Has your life changed since you purchased your home? Maybe it’s time to “right-size.”

The concept of right-sizing is assessing what is important to you at this stage of your life. Be specific about what is essential and what you want to experience in your life. Right-sizing is the journey towards creating a lifestyle that fits your desires.

The solution may be simple. Reconfiguring your current home to better fit the space you need may be the path to a better lifestyle. Forget what the rooms are named but rather focus on what you need for useful space. As things change, homes can change too.

Right-sizing may be working with what you have but making better use of existing space. Analyze the spaces in your home and how you currently use them. Consider the practical possibilities to adapt them to your current situation. Repurpose the dining room that only gets used three times a year. One home office might not be enough if more than one family member is working from home. Reimagine how these spaces can be used based on your family’s current needs and varied activities.

t’s the season for giving. In light of our world’s recent tragic events – from hurricanes and earthquakes to the ever-present fear of disease and hunger – this holiday season seems like an even more important time than ever to give and help those in need. But with so much required and so many worthy charitable organizations out there, it can be hard to choose the cause or group that is a good fit for you and what you hope to achieve.

After all, how do you know which charity will truly deliver the donations or funds to those who need it most? Which group is the most in need? In the end, it’s crucial to do your due diligence when it comes to researching the track record of your chosen charity. But all that research can take time … something we don’t all necessarily have.

And that’s where GiveWell (GiveWell.org) comes in. This nonprofit group researches organizations and chooses the ones that actually accomplish their stated goals. GiveWell’s mission? “To help donors have the greatest impact for every dollar donated.”

Makes perfect sense to us. Based on their thoroughly researched

On the other hand, right-sizing may be moving from your current home to a new space – one that is more in tune with your current lifestyle and priorities. Is having the big house in the suburbs packed with amenities, and the cost to maintain all those extras, still important?

You may discover that layout and location of the house might be more significant than square footage. If you take the time to find a layout that works for you, the size is usually secondary. When the location is good and close to the people and places that matter most, then you’ve enhanced the value.

For example, a more compact home doesn’t need to be filled with as much stuff. Take time to furnish and decorate your house with only a few things that you love and need. Another plus: A new smaller home comes with far less maintenance and utility costs.

This process is often called “downsizing” and that implies sacrifice or giving up something. But rightsizing is a conscious choice for a better lifestyle that fits you and your family in the best way possible. It is about finding what brings your life meaning – in your current home or a new one.

Heard Museum, Phoenix | Nov. 11 Heard.org | 602.252.8840 ¡Artes Vivas! is a festive, casual market event showcasing the works of 40 noted Hispanic and Latino/a artists, with the addition of public performances and activities designed to engage and reflect our community pride and diversity. In addition to the arts marketplace, admission to the plaza events and all performances is free to the public, making it a family-friendly event for all.

Heading over to GiveWell.org is a good place to start when deciding where your donations should go. But there are other web sites to consider as well. These include GreatNonProfits.org, which helps you easily find local charities to donate to or volunteer for; and MyPhilanthropedia.org, which rates charitable groups tackling everything from emergency response to animal welfare to climate change. This way, you can easily find the charity that does the most for your particular cause, whether that is fighting cancer, helping to feed children, ending violence against women, or supporting people with disabilities.

Experts do recommend digging deeper than just the organization’s web site, however, advising contributors to analyze annual reports and call the organization to ask questions before making an online donation. One thing we know for sure: Feeling good about making a donation really only occurs when you know your money truly made a difference in someone’s life.
