Start Here

Do you have it all but instead of feeling Successful and At Peace you’re just Overwhelmed?

I know how you feel.

I also know that it doesn’t HAVE to be that way.

And there IS a way out.

How?

Simply by getting your life Pared Down so you can focus on things that matter most.

You’ll be more energetic, motivated, effective, and focused & less distracted and stressed out!

Imagine that!

Here’s what you can do to get started:

Step One – Take a good, honest inventory of an area in your life that needs fixing and write it down.

Step Two – Examine your inventory.

Step Three – Do one little thing to adjust it.

Or as Third Century A.D. Roman Plotinus stated:

“Withdraw into yourself and look. And if you do not find yourself beautiful yet, act as does the creator of a statue that is to be made beautiful; he cuts away here, he smoothes there, he makes this line lighter, this other purer, until a lovely face has grown upon his work. So do you also…Never cease chiseling your statue.“

My Story

‘Swimming’ in our ‘Pared Down’ pool during those very ‘Pared Down’ (short) summers!

Originally a New Yorker (the Upstate version), I grew up in an Irish-Italian, Catholic family and loved hanging out with my siblings, especially during those long, cold winters when we were all stuck indoors driving our poor mother crazy.

Author, speaker, coach, radio contributor, former teacher & lifetime lover of all things literary, I can be reached at Karen@karenjhornsby.com. I’d love to hear from you!

Yours,

Karen J.
