30 Days to a better man<br />

Why Declutter<br />

1. It reduces stress. I definitely think there’s something to the idea that<br />

clutter can block the flow of good karma and energy in your life.<br />

Whenever I’m in a room filled with crap, I get tense and feel like I’m<br />

being buried in stuff. When I clear things out, I feel like a load has<br />

been taken off me physically and mentally. I think clearer, I’m more<br />

productive, and I have a bit more pep in my step.<br />

2. It gives you a fresh start. If you feel as though you’ve been stuck<br />

in a rut lately or if you’ve gone through a tough break-up or recently<br />

been laid off, decluttering your space may be just the thing to kickstart<br />

your life and move it out of neutral. You can get rid of stuff that<br />

reminds you of a part of your life you want to move on from. Holding<br />

onto stuff you associate with bad memories and feelings keeps the bad<br />

energy in your home. After you clear out your crap, you’ll have a clean<br />

canvas on which to create a new life.<br />

3. It saves you time. I don’t know how many hours I’ve wasted in my life<br />

looking for something in the boxes and drawers of junk I’ve accumulated.<br />

When you have a house free of clutter, you can spend less time<br />

looking for stuff and more time focusing on more important things<br />

like making your bucket list or reconnecting with nature. After all, “A<br />

place for everything, and everything in its place,” is one of the manlier<br />

mantras you can organize your life around.<br />

4. It can save (and make) you some money. When you have a disorganized<br />

mess, important things like bills can get lost in the mix. When<br />

that happens, you run the risk of forgetting to pay a bill and being<br />

slapped with an overdue fee. You also forget what you have and don’t<br />

have, and thus end up buying duplicates of things already in your possession.<br />

Save yourself money by keeping your place clutter free.<br />
