Spring Cleaning Check In

Are you participating in Mane and Chic's Spring Cleaning Challenge? I hope you are. It's very liberating and freeing to let go of old stuff to make room for incredible new things and new energy in your life. Just a reminder, the goal is to get rid of 50 things. You can read the book Throw Out Fifty Things: Clear the Clutter, Find Your Life like I did and you can also download the free workbook on ThrowOutFiftyThings.com. There are two versions, one you can print out if you want to write your responses: ThrowOutFiftyThingsWorkbook.pdf or there is a Word document for typing in your responses: ThrowOutFiftyThingsWorkbook.doc.
The Pink Cart

The major rules:
  • If it no longer serves you, throw it out.
  • Groups of things just count as 1 item.
  • Negative thoughts, beliefs and people count. They say we are the average of the five people we associate with the most. If people are no longer serving you, it might be time to let go. Get rid of those negative thoughts and beliefs too. You can write them out and tear them up as part of the letting go process.
The deadline for this Spring Cleaning Challenge is June 20, 2011, the first day of summer.

Have you seen The Pink Cart (pictured above)? Five dollars from the purchase of every Pink Cart goes to support the American Cancer Society’s breast cancer awareness programs.
