Cut The Crap & Let It Go: A Stress Free Way to Simplify & Declutter Your Life to Increase Happiness, Freedom, Mindfulness, & Productivity by Emb (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798713852344)

Do you have a stronger relationship with the things in your storage closet than you do with the people in your life?

Is your computer desktop so cluttered that someone could do an entire Olympic triathlon in the amount of time it takes you to find one file on your computer?

Is your calendar so full of commitments that all your days blend together?

It's time to finally get things under control.

So you decide to start with your home. After all, as they say, that is where the heart is. Although for you, it's where the heart attack is because your house is so cluttered, it looks like the aftermath of a natural disaster.

But it's finally spring cleaning time. And the mental chatter begins...

You can't throw that away. It was a gift. Sure, it's still in the box, & the color makes you want to throw up in your mouth, but still, it's special. Maybe you should start with getting rid of this instead--no, this is sentimental. Yeah, it's covered in dust & you never see it & forgot you even had it until it fell from the top of your closet & hit you in the head, but still, it's special.

But you don't just keep things because they're "special." That could arguably make you a hoarder...which you're not. You're a collector. Big difference. You keep things with actual value. That's why you have an attic full of old toys that'll be worth 18 million dollars in 97 years, then you can use the money to retire. You'll be six feet under by then, but still.

Why is it so hard to part with things? Why do we get attached & justify bad spending (& keeping) habits with the convincing yet nonsensical stories we tell ourselves?

We never stop to question what's going on within us, so we just keep mindlessly piling it all on: the clothes with tags still on them, the electronics we get just to impress people, & the precious slots in our agendas that we fill with things we don't actually want to do.

It's time to get honest. It's not organized chaos. You don't "have to go." And no, you are never going to use that...whatever "that" is that's still in the original packaging that you've been holding on to since Y2K.

You have choices & it's time to start making new ones. To regain sanity, freedom, happiness, & control, you need to trim the fat off the steak in every area of your life, & declutter your mind by decluttering your time, schedule, environment, & digital space.

This book will show you how to:

• Reframe the idea of minimalism as filling your life with things you actually want versus getting rid of everything you think you want
• See why you should say "no" more than you say "yes"
• Get your physical and digital life in order & set up systems to effortlessly keep it that way
• Take advantage of Parkinson's Law to keep your space decluttered for the long haul without even trying
• Learn how focusing on the "negative" can vastly improve your space & your overall life
• Overcome the 6 reasons why people spend money mindlessly on things they don't need
• Realize the unspoken & underrated advantages of renting vs owning
• Discover the emotional & mental benefits of living with less
• Handle guilt around letting go of sentimental items & gifts
• Gain freedom & not feel bogged down by your possessions

This is not a 200-page guide on how to rearrange the paperclips in your junk drawer. It's a book about changing your relationship to things, challenging the ideals of consumerism, examining your current principles & developing new ones, & learning to prioritize your own personal values & time to increase your joy & peace, & get the most out of your life. It's about learning to live your life for you--not for someone else, & not for your things.

This is not your grandmother's self help. There's a little language, some laughs, & a lot of tough love.
