Six questions to ask yourself about your home

From time to time, it's a useful exercise to try to see your home from a visitor's point of view as we tend to just get used to clutter, poor decoration or badly arranged furniture etc. By asking these six questions, you will start to see your home more objectively and be well on the way to achieving the sort of home you really deserve.

So, here are my questions:-

1. Do I like going through my front door?
2. Does my home look welcoming? (Would I want to visit it?)
3. What would this room look like to a stranger?
4. Do I like going into my bedroom?
5. If I was a visitor, would I enjoy a meal cooked in my kitchen?
6. Is my bathroom clean and fresh and the sort of place to linger in?

If the answer to any of these questions is "no" then it's time to do something about it! YOU deserve the best environment you can provide!

Five questions to ask yourself before you buy something new!

Here are my five questions to ask yourself before you buy something new. If you ask yourself these quick questions then hopefully you will avoid adding useless clutter to your house and save yourself some money!

1. Do I really need this?
2. Have I already got one (or two or three!)
3. Is it useful or ornamental?
4. If I came back next week, would I still want it?
5. Could I use the money more wisely?

I'm not suggesting that you never buy things on impulse again but as many of our impulse buys end up never being used/worn it might be a good idea to at least try to limit them.
