It is the time of year to clear out the old and prepare for the new, suggests Master Coach Marilou Butcher Roth. She advises taking a close look at one's surroundings to identify areas that may be causing unnecessary stress or clutter. "When we are enveloped in messes, we lose our ability to create and fully function," she states.

Roth encourages individuals to examine their homes, offices, and cars for items that need attention. She recommends breaking these tasks into smaller, manageable pieces rather than attempting to tackle everything at once. This approach can make the process feel less overwhelming.

Once a list of tasks is compiled, Roth suggests prioritizing those that would bring the most satisfaction upon completion. By addressing these items incrementally, one can experience a sense of accomplishment and relief.

Marilou Butcher Roth is the owner of The MBR Group, a coaching and training company focused on working with REALTORS who seek inspiration in their professional and personal lives. She also holds the position of Broker/Owner at Group REALTORS in Cincinnati.

In addition to her business roles, Roth serves as a member of the Ohio REALTORS Board of Directors and has previously chaired its Communications Committee.
