Are you looking for ways to simplify your life?  If so, you’re not alone. In today’s crazy world, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed by all of the things we have to do and keep track of. You are not alone in feeling overwhelmed. In fact, most of the world feels overwhelmed with their life, but there is a solution! How do you simplify your life? Let’s get started on figuring that out! 

Writing with Sharpie on different color post it notes - ways to simplify your life

Ways to Simplify Your Life

Life can feel like a whirlwind. Schedules overflow, obligations pile up, and the constant hum of “to-do”s drowns out our precious moments of peace. But amidst the chaos, there’s a path to serenity – a simpler way of being that prioritizes well-being over the frenzy. This isn’t about minimalism; it’s about consciously choosing what matters, decluttering the noise, and making space for a calmer, more fulfilling life.

Below are six ways that you can begin to simplify your life. These are the perfect first steps to start your journey to live a simpler life. If you’re looking for ways to make your life easier, this is the list you need.

1. Leave Open Space in Your Calendar

One of the most important ways to simplify your life is to leave some open space in your calendar. We often fill up our days with so many activities and commitments that we don’t have any time left for ourselves. If you find that your calendar is always full, try leaving some free time each week for yourself. This will give you time to relax and do things that you enjoy, without feeling like you’re always on the go. This tip will help you learn how to drastically simplify your life!

2. Make a List of Your Priorities

Another way to simplify your life is to make a list of your priorities. What are the most important things in your life? Make sure that you focus on these things first, and don’t let other less important things get in the way. This will help you to stay focused and keep your life in perspective. Put these items on your calendar first and don’t budge on your commitment to them.

3. Learn to Say No

One of the hardest things to do is learn to say no, but it’s one of the most important things you can do if you want to simplify your life. We often take on too much because we don’t want to disappoint others. I have started to get better at this over the last couple of years because my plate was just too full. If you’re always saying yes to things, you’ll quickly feel it! Learning to say no will help you to focus on what’s really important in your life and avoid burnout.

4. Gain Control of Your Time

One of the best ways to simplify your life is to gain control of your time. Time is one of the most precious commodities we have, and it’s important to use it wisely. There are a number of ways to do this, including setting aside specific times for certain tasks and making a schedule. I use a timer for specific tasks throughout my day to really focus on my priorities and eliminate distractions.

5. Delegate and Let Go

Another way to simplify your life is to delegate and let go of some things. We can’t do everything ourselves, and trying to do so will only make us feel overwhelmed. Instead, learn to delegate tasks to others and let go of things that you can’t control. This will help you to truly focus on simplifying your life and working on those tasks that can only be done by you. 

6. Trial and Error

As you try and simplify your life,  you’ll likely find that some things work for you and others don’t. That’s okay! Everyone is different, and what works for one person may not work for another. The important thing is to keep trying different things that will help you simplify your life and make it easier. Always be open to new ideas!

Decluttering is also a great way to simplify – get a list of 10 things to declutter right now.

These are just a few of the ways you can simplify your life. By making some simple changes, you can declutter your life and make it more manageable. You’ll find that there are easy ways to make your life easier and simpler, you just need to get started!
