Easy stuff to get rid of
Things we own have different values, for example monetary, practical, and sentimental value. These values change and evolve over time. If it’s been a while since you considered the value of your possessions, I recommend spending some time reevaluating things. Then get rid of items that have little or no value to you anymore. Start with the easy stuff.
-
- Broken, expired, and outdated items
- Excessive quantities, duplicates, backup items, and surplus goods
- Items belonging to someone else, stored for others, or borrowed from others
- Materials and products from past hobbies that no longer interest you
- Unfinished fix-it projects and abandoned projects
- Clothing, footwear, and jewelry that is uncomfortable, difficult to maintain, or no longer worn
- Products you’ve tried but don’t like and won’t use again
- Tools, equipment, and gear from previous jobs, home-based businesses, or start-up ideas
- Papers, files, and documents that are outdated, irrelevant, or unnecessary
- Blurry, damaged, or duplicate photos
- Samples, freebies, and give-aways that have never been touched
- Random screws, bolts, or parts with no known purpose
- Empty boxes and plastic bags
Are there other items you consider easy to get rid of? Please share them with me.
Have you ever declared, “I can’t get rid of that, it cost too much!” If you don’t use it or wear it, why does it matter how much it cost? It won’t cost any less if you hold onto it for another year or two. Let it go now! This way someone, other than you, can get some use out of it before it depreciates in value.
