ORGANIZING - MINIMIZING – OWNING LESS – LIVING MORE Having ownership and freedom from your belongings leaves you more time, creativity, money, and peace.

Have you ever heard the saying, “the less you own, the less that owns you?”

This is so true in the first step in creating an organized life and minimalism. Much like simplifying your belongings, we can also help in simplifying and organizing your home, business, and lifestyle.

8 Questions to Ask Yourself to Help You Declutter

1. Have I used this in the last year?
If your answer is no, it's time to toss.

2. If I were shopping right now, would I buy this?
If the current you wouldn't buy this item now, why would you even keep it?

3. Is the only thing that's keeping me from disposing this item that I don't want to waste money?
Think of it this way: you wasted money when you bought an item you don't use.

4. Am I holding on to this for sentimental value?
Be strict and keep only a few of the items in a small memorabilia box. Then take a photo of items you are throwing away so you can keep them forever.

5. Do I have a similar item that serves the same purpose?
If yes, then get rid of one of them.

6. Do I have a realistic plan to use this?
Make sure you have a concrete plan to use the item, and if you don't use it within the time frame you set for yourself to use it, then toss it.

7. Does it fit me or my living space?
You may love it, but do you have space for the item or does it even suit you now? Think hard on what to keep — your space is sacred.

8. Am I holding on to the broken item to fix in the future?
Fix it now, or if you don't get around to fixing in the next two weeks, then toss it. (We're so guilty of this...)
