Declutter Now! 30 Day DevotionalSample
Project Management
So you’ve conceded, you’ve got too much stuff. You’re ready to part with the excess, unnecessary, unused, and broken clutter. What to do now?
Break down your decluttering task into smaller, manageable chunks, and take action.
Walk around your home and make a list of everything that should go. Before you begin, set a time frame that’s comfortable for you, and if you haven’t used something in that pre-determined limit, it’s gone! This is a great way to self-monitor in case you start second-guessing yourself in the process.
Where should it go? We suggest making three piles – Trash, Donate, Sell.
Donating to a local charity benefits both you (don’t forget your tax deductible receipt!) and the organization. Use this as an opportunity to help those less fortunate and in need. Donating can also include, however, passing down a precious memento to a family member. There are many ways to bless those around you!
Feel like having a yard sale or listing a few items online in your community classifieds? The money you earn can go towards paying down a credit card, buying something you need, or doing something fun. We love recycling clutter into cash!
The bible commends hard work and warns about slacking. Ask God to help you overcome any tendencies towards procrastination and put your Decluttering Project Management plan to work!
What will you declutter? Unwanted stuff that can be turned into cash or blessings, cluttered spaces, and procrastination.
