Your garage, attic or basement — maybe all three — are loaded with random possessions ranging from precious to useless. You have at least one box full of electronics, cabling and defunct gadgets you’ll never use again, plus AC adaptors and other accessories and peripherals you can no longer match to the devices they once belonged to. You have “junk” drawers full of stuff that might be useful someday, but that you actually haven’t used in years. Your closet contains clothes and shoes you never wear anymore.
All this stuff creates clutter, makes the useful stuff harder to find, takes up valuable space that could be put to better uses, and stands in the way of you simplifying your life.
There’s a very simple reason why we all have too much stuff: We have scheduled and unscheduled rituals and habits for acquiring more stuff, but we don’t have counterbalancing rituals and habits for getting rid of it.
Except for the trash, that is. Here’s how to LEARN FROM TRASH how to develop habits that will bring you simplicity, space, freedom and cash for yourself; help for the less fortunate; and even minor contributions to protecting the environment.
