Become Your Best Version Before 2025 - Day 17
Hey Goddesses! If you joined us yesterday for our digital detox conversation, you might've noticed something, when we put our phones down, we suddenly see all the actual stuff around us! Isn't it wild how one type of decluttering naturally leads to another?
Life gets busy, messy even, and it’s easy to let the clutter pile up. But here’s the thing: decluttering isn’t just about tidying up your closet (though that’s part of it). It’s about clearing space in your life, your physical space, your calendar, even your mind, so you can breathe a little easier.
Let's make this super simple and actually doable. No pressure to transform your entire life overnight, just small, friendly steps that make a real difference.
Here's what really works (and I know because I've struggled with this too!):
Start with just 10 minutes. Pick a tiny spot that's been bugging you, maybe that coffee table where everything seems to land, or your bathroom counter. Don't think too hard about it! Just grab a trash bag for garbage and a box for donations, and ask yourself: "Do I actually use this? Does it make my daily life better?"
Got clothes you haven't worn in forever? Instead of feeling guilty about them, think about how happy they could make someone else! Those jeans that don't fit quite right anymore could be someone else's perfect pair.
Feeling like your mind is as cluttered as your space? Try this: before bed tonight, grab a notebook and write down everything that’s swirling around in your head. It doesn’t have to be pretty or organized, just get it all out. You’ll wake up feeling lighter, trust me.
Here's a super helpful trick: the "maybe box." Not sure about something? Pop it in a box, put today's date on it, and tuck it away for three months. If you haven't missed it by then, it's probably safe to let it go.
Sometimes, it’s not your physical space that’s cluttered, it’s your time. Take a quick look at your schedule for the week. Is there something you said yes to that you really wish you hadn’t? Give yourself permission to reschedule, delegate, or just cancel it altogether. Your time is valuable.
The best part? Once you clear even a tiny space, you'll feel this amazing sense of lightness. It's like taking a deep breath of fresh air. And that feeling? It's totally addictive (in the best way!).
Want to get started? Here's an easy-peasy way:
Look around the room you're in right now
Spot three things that you definitely don't need
Let them go (recycle, donate, trash, whatever fits)
That's it! You've already started!
To keep the clutter from creeping back in, try this: for every new thing you bring into your life (a purchase, a commitment, etc.), let one thing go.
Every time you let go of something you don't need, you're making more room for the good things in life, like calm mornings where you can actually find your keys, or a cozy evening at home where you're not staring at piles of stuff that need sorting.
What’s one area of your life you’re excited to declutter? Share it with me in the comments or message me, I’d love to hear about it.
See you tomorrow for Day 18!
