Everything has potential
Potential usefulness is not the same as actual usefulness. It’s easy to hold on to things because they have potential, but it’s important to be honest with yourself about their true value. Ask yourself:
- How realistic is the potential of this item?
- What condition is it in?
- What is the likelihood that I’ll actually use it?
- Will I use it within the next 6 months?
- If it were damaged, would I replace it?
- Would someone else get more value from it than I do?
The world is full of items with potential, but if you’re not using or appreciating them, consider letting them go to someone who will.
