Purge like there’s no tomorrow. Be ruthless. If it’s something you are not using or haven’t even use at all, donate it. It it’s broken, you do not need it anymore. Get rid of things which are stained, worn out or spoilt. The more you can get rid of, the less cluttered your space will be.

You worked hard to create an organizational system, so make an effort to maintain them.

Do not be afraid to make some changes or tweak what you have established in organizing your things. If you find anything that is not working or it seems not practical and workable; that is totally fine. Just go and tweak it. Coming to the best includes changes, don’t be anxious to reassess and fix those annoying system. That is part of the process.

Make a commitment not to buy something unless it serves a valuable purpose and if possible, get rid of something old at the same time. When your clear your space, it brings your mind, peace and a sense of relaxation.  The sooner you embrace this change, the sooner you can enjoy more valuable things in life.

There is no better feeling than having a freshly organized space. The less clutter, the more space you can have and the more amount of time you will save looking for things you can’t find.  Take off some excess baggage, anything that doesn’t add value, it will help you live a better life.
