Making A Clean Sweep
By Greg Hickman
With another
year behind us and a promising new year unfolding before
us, it is time to start anew. One way to freshen things
up is to take the broom out of the closet and do a
little house cleaning. That’s right, we are no longer
going to sweep things under the rug, into the corner or
behind the furniture. Nope, that is just not going to
happen around here any more.
All of the
bad stuff that we have allowed to accumulate over the
past year and now clutters up our lives is going to be
swept away once and for all. We have got to break out
that trusty old broom and then start sweeping, sweeping
and sweeping some more, until all of the bad stuff is
gone.
We need to
look under every nook and cranny. If something needs to
go, then sweep it away! All of the doubts, worries and
indecision you have held back in the past have got to go
right now. Sweep, sweep, sweep.
All of the
drudgery, depression and hum-drum blahs that have stolen
your fire and left you feeling totally empty time and
time again have got to go too. Sweep, sweep and sweep
some more. Keep sweeping, we want this place clean
as a whistle.
How about the
obstacles and barriers that have repeatedly impeded your
growth and development? Are you kidding me? It’s time to
sweep them away too. Anything and everything that needs
to be swept out of your life needs to go – and go right
now.
Sweep,
sweep and sweep some more.
Once you have
finally cleaned up the place and have gotten your
"house" in order, don't put that broom away just yet.
You need keep sweeping this rubbish away from you each
and every day of your life. If you let up, even for one
day, this unwanted trash will most assuredly start
piling up again.
SWEEP,
SWEEP, SWEEP, SWEEP. You need to keep making room
for the good things you want in your life by sweeping
away the bad stuff you don’t want.
Go ahead and
break out that broom right now and start making a
clean sweep a daily ritual for the rest of your
life.
