Get rid of things that need repair or adjustment.

[bitheerani319]

Many people keep a certain number of things that need repair. Or pieces of clothing that they would 100% wear if they were shortened, torn or altered. The problem is that few people put their ideas into practice, so they collect items that will never be repaired or adapted.

Don't worry, it's a problem that most people have, and you're not alone if you recognize yourself in it. The next time you think about fixing an old iron that costs more than a new one or altering a dress as soon as you find a seamstress, give up and get rid of an item that you'll forget about as soon as you bury it in your closet.

Introduce the 6-second rule
The 6-second rule means that you pick up a certain item and ask yourself – do I bolivia whatsapp list this, do I use this, do I love this, do I like this? If after 6 seconds you cannot give an affirmative answer to these questions (all questions), it is a sign that you need to get rid of that item.

Get rid of duplicates
You know how you used to collect stickers when you were little? Maybe your child does it today too. And what do you do with duplicates? You exchange them or throw them away. So why do we all have houses and closets full of duplicates?

Raise your hand if you have multiple scissors, bottle openers, pencils, oven mitts, combs, or any other item for which it is clear that only one is enough and that we can buy a replacement at any time if the first one breaks.

Duplicates create clutter, are rarely needed, and often we don't even know where they are when we need them, so we end up buying new ones. If you have a lot of duplicate items in your home that you don't use, it's probably time to get rid of them and free up space.

Hobbies that are no longer interesting
There is hardly a person in the world who hasn't tried a new hobby or interest at least once and then given up on it. I know because I've been through various phases and ideas that turned out to be utterly stupid.

People do all sorts of things out of boredom or because they think they're interested. Some people will want to go fishing, some will want to sew or do tapestries, some will want to make jewelry, and some will want to play hockey or something else. The problem is that most people give up after a short time, and then the fishing equipment, sewing and knitting equipment, jewelry and tools, and hockey sticks just sit there taking up space.

Solution? Make peace with the fact that you're not interested enough in the hobby because you've obviously given up. If you were interested, you would find time because it's all about priorities, and that you'll never do it again, not even in retirement, because even then you'll find an excuse.

Try to shop wisely.
Once upon a time, I would go crazy for everything I could get my hands on. Today, I go crazy too, especially when I see a new collection in a store that I love or a sale, but mostly I try to take a deep breath, not rush, and ask myself 3 questions:

Am I buying this because I like it?
Am I buying this because I need it?
Am I buying this because it's on sale?
If you answer yes and conclude that you both like it and need it, great, buy it. The thing is, I can guarantee that in 80% of cases you will put the item aside and give up on buying it because you will conclude that you don't actually need it.

Try it yourself, because I can say from my own experience that just because of these questions, I no longer buy too many things that I clearly won't use.
