Personal Growth Visionary, Author and International Speaker, Amy Jones lives and breathes one simple philosophy: live in the moment.
“People are so consumed with planning for the future that they failto focus on the life right in front of them; the here and now. All of us know someone who, due to a life event (health, divorce, death,loss of income), are unable to do the things they’ve always wanted to do, like travel. There are so many dreams that never come to fruition because of circumstances out of our control,” she says.
Her business is a customer drive “needs-based” business; helping people transition in difficult situations. From her personal experience and listening to her clients’ needs, she continued to expand her service offerings to accommodate special requests. Her goal was to help make her clients’ lives easier during one of the most stressful times in their lives; moving due to a lifestyle change, death or divorce. Word quickly spread about her expertise and she has become highly sought after by some of the top realtors and their clients in the DFW area for her knowledge, approach, client care and emotional support she provides.
Amy has had the privilege to work with C-level executives, professional musicians, professional athletes, families, small business owners, artists, schools, authors, corporations, speakers, employees of Fortune 500 companies and thought leaders, among others.
An interview with the Dallas Morning News furthered her career as an expert in her field. In the article, she discusses the importance of getting rid of physical clutter as well as mental clutter. She is frequently asked to speak to a variety of groups including women’s clubs, schools, yoga studio events, non-profits, senior centers and cancer survivor groups (Amy is a 3-time cancer survivor) on the same topic. Her series “Getting Rid of Possessions: It’s Harder Than You Think” has the highest attendance in the history of the Generations program at Methodist Health Systems. She is in the process of creating a new series entitled “How to Live A Comfortable Life Now”.
She is the author of Better for Being Broken and co-author of Break Through with Johnny Wimbrey, Nik Halik & Les Brown.

Walking Your Talk
“Walking your talk is a great way to motivate yourself. No one likes to live a lie. Be honest with yourself, and you will find the motivation to do what you advise others to do.” - Vince Poscente I think it is really important to walk your talk – in your business and in your personal life. I began my organizing, staging and moving business in 2010 and quickly realized the most valuable service I could provide to my clients was to walk my talk. In order to be their best organizer, I had to do it and maintain it for myself. This is how my journey with organization began:r

5 Remarkable Concepts that Will Improve Your Personal Growth Journey
I am often asked about my personal growth journey. How did it begin? What has been the easiest lesson? What has been the most difficult experience? How were you able to keep going with all that you’d been through? There are no simple answers however once I made the decision to take that first step, I recognized there would be no looking back. I just had to focus on one step at a time, one foot in front of the other and to trust there was something better. I felt hollow, fragile and numb. I couldn’t feel any worse. I had reached the bottom of the bottom.

2018 was a Rough Year
I don't know about you however I started 2018 with hope, promise and the intention that this year was going to be better than 2017. Last year was a really hard year, not just for me but for many people. Lots of changes personally, locally and globally occurred.

Is your glass half-empty or half-full?
We’ve heard this saying over and over and over. It’s typically presented as a perspective about life. Do you have a glass half-empty perspective? Do you tend to look at things with a bit more pessimism, anticipating the worst or seeing what has been lost? Do you have a glass half-full perspective? Do you tend to look at things with a bit more optimism, anticipating the best or seeing what can be gained? “There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.” - William Shakespeare

You’ve heard the phrase “we meet people for a reason, a season or a lifetime”. I’m a firm believe in that concept as I’ve experienced some wonderful connections with people in all three of these areas. Here is the poem it its entirety:

Finding Comfort Instead of Happiness
I have an interesting concept I would like to share with you. For a while I have struggled with what it means to be happy. Can I be happy if I am not smiling? Can I be happy only when I feel good, rested or not stressed? Can I be happy with things and not people? Can I be happy with people and not things? Happy is undefinable to me. I’m not sure what being happy is any longer and I see this more and more in my business.

Why I Threw Away (Almost) All of My Christmas Decorations Last Year
Growing up, the holidays were always a hard time for me. There was a lot of competition between my younger brother and I (he was three years my junior). We would count the number of presents under the tree to ensure we both had the same amount, to be fair. When it came to unwrapping, there would be some duplicated items and I always wondered why there was so much focused attention on being “fair” especially when I was the oldest.

Post Traumatic Growth – Why Recovery is the Best Revenge
By definition, revenge is quite harsh. It means to inflict hurt or harm on someone for an injury or wrong done to someone else. For this post, I would like to alter the definition slightly in the following way: to avenge oneself by retaliating through healing, recovery and self-care. Pretty powerful and empowering alteration, isn’t it?
