Purging Your Belongings - Part Deux

Back in August, I wrote a little post about purging my belongings. It was well-received, and a few fellow agents asked me how it was going.

My little experiement got out of control. What a surprise. I decided that I needed to get rid of 365 things...one for each day of this year. Oh, really? At first, I truly didn't believe that I could. My belongings have never been completely out of control, and I felt that I really needed and wanted what I had so carefully acquired.

However, I gave a good deal of thought to how much time it takes to care for all these items. Then, I began to work in earnest...it took me a week and a half. 365 things in 11 days. Compulsive? Absolutely. But, I can't begin to tell you how satisfying it was. And the local charities were very happy, too!

You might want to try a modified version...one item a week. Most of us have stuff we keep for someday...that someday may be here!

Let me know if this inspires you!!
