Clutter Busting Coach

...clearing clutter from your mind, body and space

40 Day Challenge Check In

by

In a previous post, I invited you to join me in a 40 Day Challenge to remove clutter from your life.

Have you joined me? If not, why not? This Challenge is a great opportunity to take baby steps into the clutter busting journey. By selecting one item daily to either toss, recycle, donate or sell it can start you on a new path to remove clutter from your home/life. And, even if you start today, you can still declutter over 20 items.

If you have joined me, I hope you are learning something during this process. I sure am. I am always in awe that even though I have done this practice for the last several years, I continue to have ah-ha moments as well as clutter that I need to let go of.

I again recognized that it most difficult for me to declutter items that have been gifted to me. Yet, giving myself permission to let go of those items has proven to be freeing. Freeing, because I realized that I am grateful for the gift and the intent and the love behind it. And, if it has severed me or I no longer use it or love it, I do not have to continue to hold to it just because it was a gift.

What can you let go of? What lessons have you learned so far?

Did you join me on the 40 items in 40 Days Challenge to declutter your life in 2021?

If you did, how is it going? What have you learned?

I have learned that even though this is the third year that I have done this challenge, and even though I declutter items by upcycling, recycling, donating or tossing, I still have items in my home that I do not love or use. Also, because my focus is on donating items, it is easier to let things go because I know that they are moving on to someone who may be in need. Finally, letting go of items gives me a sense of freedom and opens space for possibilities. Some interesting things are starting to happen for me.

If you did not join us on February 17, although it is 10 days in, you can still join ins and you will have done a 30-day Challenge.

Are you ready to declutter? Here is a way for you to begin the decluttering process in a few minutes a day. It may also help you complete this challenge if you focus on items that are acceptable enough to be donated.

What do you get out of it? You will have removed some clutter and you will have benefited others by donating the items at the end of the 40 days. What do you have to lose except at least 40 items that are cluttering your life?
