Declutter.

Posted on March 4, 2008 by admin

I was reading the latest post on Zen Habits {This is a nice read, btw.} about the tips and tricks to improve one’s finances. I must say that the list is truly helpful. We are actually doing (or trying to do) a few of the tips mentioned in the article.

Right now, I am concentrating on #14 which is declutter. I have been slowly (it’s been months, actully) getting rid of our excess things. Even if it’s a good stuff but if it hasn’t been used in a while, I get rid of it. I give them away to people who are so willing to put them to good use. I really want to lessen our clutter and keep only stuff that we need. Just like what is said on the article, it’s simpler and more peaceful that way. Not to mention, cleaning up is so much easier. And it’s true, I think several times before purchasing another stuff as I don’t want to clutter things up again.

Here’s a glimpse of my gown, which has been sitting in the sofa for the longest time, before I put it away. After all the cleaning up, I finally found a space for it.

Next stop, our closet.
