Do you ever feel sometimes you’re owning more than required? Be it your thoughts or possessions, it is true for both worlds! In every aspect of life, we have a tendency to always look for more. We are never satisfied with what we already have which forces our mind to constantly lookout for more options and supposedly “better” alternatives. For example, we all have shoes or dresses we never even use them anymore, but still keep buying more because you are never satisfied with what you already have. While there’s no harm in owning more, but it is also important to let go of the stuff when they don’t serve us anymore before it clutters our space.
Why is it important to let go and how to do it? When we have so much, we often forget to appreciate what we have. To declutter your closet space and henceforth your mind, donate those clothes you don’t need anymore. Get rid of those office files or books that don’t serve you anymore. Sell off that furniture you don’t use. When you start with decluttering those physical objects, you allow your mind to declutter as well. It allows you to think more clearly, and focus on fewer important things you have rather than wasting energy on multiple thoughts running across your mind.
Alert! Be sure not to get rid of things that you do need!! I suggested a few of my friends to try this and they ended up getting rid of things they needed! Please don’t be stupid!
