INSPIRATION, continued
Yvette helped me get out of my stuck mode with one day's work.  My finished attic had become inundated with boxes of paper, old unfinished projects and useless furniture and junk...I wanted to get floor space for a sewing room and make an office space in the other room.  I had been trying to work my way through this for almost a year.  Yvette came in and in one day helped me break through my inability to envision how to get to the future.   I had no idea that the order of my things was in chaos, and not just the quantity.  And once we broke through my old way of organizing (or not organizing!) my mind opened up to see the possibilities.  It wasn't long before my office was happening and then it became a joy to decorate and make it my own. 

Yvette gave me things to do that would keep things moving and be simple enough for me to focus on and not be frustrating, as the process of redistributing can be hard emotionally when you are used to things in a certain way.  I am very grateful for Yvette's patient help, organizational expertise, positive energy, and ability to see where I needed and wanted to go just by scanning my environment, asking me questions, and ascertaining my most comfortable modus operandi.  What a relief!  Years and years of doing nothing changed in one day, and now I am up here every day making a living!

In a matter of hours, Yvette helped me complete projects I'd been putting off for years.  Getting organized was a huge relief, and she made it easy. I'm going to recommend her to everyone I know!

Thanks for all the great work and help you provided yesterday.  I have felt mentally "lighter" all day as a result of this progress.

Yvette, I can't thank you enough for your help.  I had no idea how painless it was going to be!  You worked so steadily and there was no judgment.  I was never given a task that I couldn't handle.  When I lost momentum you weren't impatient with me, you just let me sit down and do a small project that wasn't overwhelming.  I already feel more energetic and actually did some more work after you left.  Now I look forward to walking into my bedroom knowing that it's a peaceful, orderly place.  Your suggestions were also extremely positive.  You told me you liked art and I could see that you have a sense of order and balance, and even helped me arrange some things.  I love it.  I'm looking forward to our next appointment so I can make another room a peaceful, orderly place in my life.

I can't overemphasize the benefit your service has been to me.  I received a letter from the IRS about a tax payment, and I was quickly able to find the check in question because of your organization of my bank statements! I've taken two more big loads of clothing and household items to thrift shops, and continue to find things that I can, and have, "let go of" that I used to consider keepers just because I've always had them.  I think of you often because it was so much fun to work with you.
