5 Tips For Getting Rid of Your Stuff

 

Clutter (my definition): Homeless stuff. Anything that does not have a permanent home. (That would include stuff sitting on top of your dryer.)

  • 3 THIRTY

Spend 30 minute a day 3 days a week and just get rid of junk

Schedule ahead like Monday, Wednesday and Friday 30 minutes after dinner.

  • DumpTEN

Take a grocery bag and get rid of ten things in one room or on one shelf. Don’t stop until you get ten. Want to be empowered? Do it again!!

  • 2 RULE

Have no more than two extra things of your stuff. 1 white shirt you wear all the time and 2 extra.

  • BEFORE EMAIL

Before you even open up email do your de-cluttering job or task. Emails will be always be there.

  • Think RESPONSIBILITY and ENERGY

Ever think that every SINGLE thing you bring into your house has “responsibility” and energy attached to it? You have to store it, take care of it, use it, or care for it. Do you want that much responsibility? Do you have energy for one more thing? I would much rather own a used car that is less responsibility than a new car that I worry about getting scratched.
