Can you please listen to me when I ask for help?
Dear Husband,
You know I love you very much. You know I want us and our family to be happy. I treasure you in my life, and I want us to always be able to work out our differences and support each other.
Unfortunately, we always seem to have the same disagreement over clutter. You are very lucky to know how to organize and to keep everything organized. I, on the other hand, struggle with this daily. Sometimes it becomes totally overwhelming, and I don’t even know where to begin. I know you have my best interests at heart when you say you will help me, but regrettably, we end up fighting and getting nothing done.
I have tried for years to do this on my own, and I know you think I should be able to do so. As you can see, I have not been very successful at this. This is not a reflection on you, and I am hoping you will understand that I need help. It is very hard for me to admit this, but I’ve decided the time has finally come for me to ask for help from a professional organizer. The professional organizer will:
- Keep me on track so I continue to make progress.
- Teach me the skills so I can use them after our projects are done.
- Give our family a return on our investment, which includes our physical space being cleared, peace of mind, and the freedom to do the things we love.
Believe me, I love every gift you have given me through the years, but the one gift I would love is for you to support me in my need for organizing help. Thank you SO much.
Love you always,
Wife
If I could tell you how many times I hear this, I would be a millionaire by now. This is an example of a wife explaining to her husband, but it could be a husband explaining to his wife, parents explaining to their children, their children explaining to them, etc.
We all need help with things in our lives, and I, as a professional organizer can offer the assistance needed in this area. It doesn’t matter the size of the project. What matters is that you’ve heard what the person is saying to you.
What can you do to listen to and honor your spouse’s, partner’s, parent’s, child’s, friend’s, etc. request?
Now is Your Time to Go from Bedlam to Brilliance!
