Last year I started a tradition for myself that I like to call the 50 Day
Throw it Away Challenge. I tend to have a lot of trouble getting rid of things. Even thing such as price tags, old rubber bands, and small pieces of yarn. I
often feel as though they will come in handy someday, and sometimes feel sorry
for the item that I am getting rid of. Furthermore, larger cleaning and
organizing jobs are often overwhelming for people like me on the spectrum. I am
sharing my idea for anyone who is interested in joining my tradition.
You are free to adjust the challenge however you like, but this is how I do
it.
When: I will start on the first day of spring, and continue for 50 days.
What: I will throw or give away something every day for said days.
Why: because I have a tendency to hoard things, my room is cluttered, and I
will be rewarded with $10 dollars of shopping at Half Price Books.
Feel free to do more or less days and reward yourself with something when
you finish. If you forget a day, just get rid of that day's item the next day. Last but not least, if you
want, retweet, or otherwise share this idea.
