Immediately

When you can't make a decision about whether to keep an item, it's time to start asking questions.

Keep drilling down until you get to the real reason you are keeping something.  And remember to be honest with your answers.

1. What is my immediate emotional response to this?
2. What kind of energy does it bring me? (positive, negative, nostalgic, anxiety)
3. Why do I need this?
4. What would happen if I didn't have this?
5. Could I get this somewhere else?
6. Is it current?
7. When was the last time I used it?
8. Is it something I want to pass on as an heirloom?
9. Does that person even want it?
10. Where am I displaying this in my home?

By getting to the emotional reasons you are saving something, you are able to release the emotions attached to the object - and then the object itself.

You one thing Wednesday tip is to be honest about the emotional reasons as to why you are keeping an item.

To your most Peaceful self!
