Throw Out 50 Things Challenge: Rules of Disengagement

We're starting this week with our challenge to Throw Out 50 Things.

As Gail Blanke states in her book and the accompanying workbook, to be successful in this process you need to learn the Rules of Disengagement:

1. If it weighs you down or makes you feel bad about yourself, throw it out and move on.

2. If it just sits there and doesn't contribute to anything positive in your life, throw it out and move on.

3. Don't make the decision to toss or keep it a hard one. If you are taking too long to make a decision, throw it out and move on.

4. Don't be afraid. You don'e have the time, energy or room for physical or psychic waste.

So, with your garbage bags, sticky-notes, marker, and the Rules of Disengagement, you are ready to begin.

I'm tackling the bedroom first and will report on the results on Monday. I encourage you to do the same and I look forward to hearing from you along the journey.
