Declutter: Magazines

May 18, 2012 by Quin Leave a Comment

The neighbor just stopped down for a few minutes.  While we were all talking in the kitchen I sort of mindlessly started a recycling pile of store ads & magazines from around the kitchen. Isn’t it funny how you realize your messes so much more in front of company.
It wasn’t a terribly big stack, but I knew all those papers were holding me back, & making me feel guilty that I hadn’t yet dealt with them, so they got tossed into the recycling bucket.  After he left, instead of trying to skim the magazines I decided to leave them be.  I went to lay on the hammock & blog.  I enjoy this activity much more.  & I’m sure what ever was in the magazines wasn’t all that important anyway.

What material thing is holding you back or dragging you down, even if just slightly?  Make a point to deal with it before the next week begins.  The sooner the better.
