Ask yourself these five straightforward questions to declutter everything…
1. Is it a duplicate?
Do you have more than one of this item the same? If so, why?
2. Is it easily replaceable?
Can you borrow / obtain / rent / buy the item locally for a small cost?
3. Was it free?
If you didn’t pay for it and you don’t use it, why on earth is it still in your life?
4. Is it a gift that you dislike but feel like you have to keep anyway to please someone?
People don’t give gifts in order to burden you. Let it go.
5. You haven’t worn / used / consumed it in the last six months or more?
Don’t leave it in your life. Get rid of it!
