Gail Blank's Throw Out Fifty Things: Clear the Clutter, Find Your Life is more than the typical toss it out and lighten your load quick fix to leading a more untethered life guide. It also deals with the mental baggage that prevents you from being successful.
The first section of the book takes the reader on a tour of each major space in a house and suggests items to consider tossing out. Warning: Don't toss out other people's stuff without asking. Sort the items into four broad categories:
- Trash
- Donate
- Sell
- Keep
The items you keep should either have utility or positive sentimental value. Get rid of the items that bring back unpleasant memories or waste space.
The next section of the book deals with tossing out bad behaviors, avoiding negative assumptions, getting over fears, and finding your song. The song is something you can sing in the car on your way to an event, presentation, or interview when you need to be your best.
This currently is my song:
Don't Look Back - Boston -6 min.
Dare to be Different - 3.5 minutes
Confidence - 3 minutes
