浮生偷得一日闲1: reduce clutter

                                       Reduce the Clutter in my life

 

The guideline is easy: if you haven’t used it in a year or more, get rid of it.

 

Getting rid of it can mean any number of things: give it to a friend, give it to Goodwill, take it to a consignment shop, sell it at a garage sale, or put it in the Dumpster.

 

Start with my clothes closets and branch out from there. Clean out every closet, every drawer, every shelf, in every room of my home, including the kitchen, front hall closet, the linen closet, tool chests, and the medicine cabinets, laundry room, the garage, the attic, my office, my car and any storage space I may be renting or borrowing.

 

I can complete the initial stage of an unclutter program in a couple of Saturday afternoons. Be sure to have my roommate go through this exercise with me. It’s a great way for them to learn at an early age how to keep their lives uncluttered. Just schedule the time and get started.

 

The idea is not to deny yourself the things you want, but to free yourself from the things you don’t want.
