  • Cull the Clutter

    Go in every room and divide your things into four boxes : things to donate, things to throw away, things to keep, and things to store. If you don’t need it or love it, consider getting rid of it. Go through your box of things to keep and find a place for everything.  Finish one room before moving on to the next.

  • 4 Lessons From Bungee Jumping

    Don’t overthink before deciding: On bungee jumping, the longer you wait to jump, the more you make excuses and convince yourself to back out. Live in the moment: Left hanging in mid-air while they pull you back up is an euphoric moment followed by feelings of peace and calm that you can appreciate because you are then living in the moment. Face your fears : you jump despite the fear and in the end you feel empowered and a sense of accomplishment.  Have faith that things will work out: people die bungee jumping but faith the cord won’t snap keeps people jumping regardless.

  • Clean Out Your Closet

    Sort and organize your apparel, separating items into three distinct piles: Donations, Disposal, and Clothes to Keep. Keep only the garments you love dearly and plan to wear often. From the usable items, sell the items you can and give or donate the rest. For clothing that is damaged beyond wear, get creative and turn them into rags for cleaning. Don’t clear out all your clothes at once. Slowly swapping out some garments in exchange for quality pieces will be less overwhelming and more affordable.

  • Pare down your supplies

    Empty out the cabinets and drawers. Separate beauty tools (hairdryer, styling iron, savers, etc.) from beauty supplies (make-up, lotion, aftershave, etc.). Eliminate duplicates, throw out anything that’s broken or old, and get rid of items you no longer use.  Wash your storage containers and organize what you’re going to keep.
