Why do you still do not get rid of the trash

Trash accumulates ever, but why is this happening? Why do we keep unnecessary things instead of throwing them?

Why do we have on the shelves are so many books that we've read? There are two reasons to leave them, to re-read when there is a desire, or to periodically look into them in order to clarify something.

However, with the proliferation of the Internet need to keep the book "to help" is practically disappear if it is not some rare special editions, which are not found on the Internet. As for the books to reread, you will agree, not so much. So why do we continue to keep the house a huge stack of books that are just gathering dust in the closet?

Or why do we need so many good things in the kitchen? So many different pots and pans, saucepans and baking dish, and use one, and that in multivarka. So why everything else is dead weight?

The truth is, it's really hard to get rid of things that you own. At the same time easy to convince yourself that you need new, even if your home is already full of the same things that you do not use.

And in both cases, the wrong choice costing you dearly. All your books, unnecessary pans and other unnecessary things - this is money that is just lying. You might find them to better use.

Moreover, many of the things that you keep at homeIt is used very rarely, and they can take the time with friends for this unique event. Instead, they gather dust in your apartment, you are wasting effort on something, to move them, to fold, to care for them.

And the question arises again: why do we continue to keep all this stuff? Why are we again and again accumulate it?

These causes accumulation of rubbish

The main reason - the fear of missed opportunities. We think that all the things that do not need it now, you may need in the future. You come up with a scenario in which things can be useful, and they look realistic, but in life are embodied extremely rare.

The second reason - the pleasure from what you see all these things. For example, you like to see a fully equipped kitchen with all appliances that you never use. But in this case you can reduce the amount of things, let's say, half and leave only what is in the mind.

And another reason: to get rid of things you need to make an effort. To return at least a certain amount of money that we paid for things you need to spend time and effort. Handed over to the pawnshop, take a picture of the thing and put ads on Avito or social networks. In any case, it will take time, but for some things do not get even the minimum amount of return.

So how do you make yourself get rid of unnecessaryDespite all the reasons that keep us from this? Here are a few ways.

How to make yourself get rid of trash

1. Evaluate critically everything that you are going to buy

Every time you are going to buy something, remember, do you have any thing to the house, which performs the same function. If there is, the better the new thing? Why do you need to buy it? If you buy it, then what will you do with the old thing? A critical approach to the purchase of new things, and then you will buy a lot less unnecessary.

2. Gradually get rid of things when a case falls

Not necessarily immediately placed on Avito several dozen ads selling everything that you do not use, or drag to the pawnshop bag with things. Such large-scale operations are likely to scare you, and you so much for her and will not take.

Instead, be careful, and if an opportunity appears, sell or give to things. For example, a friend complains that he broke the monitor, and you on the balcony of the second year of unnecessary dust. Offer to buy your or just donate it.

3. Reconsider your attitude to things and experience

Why is the possession of things brings you pleasure? Maybe as a child you did not have the things that you want, and so now dusty collection make you melt with tenderness? In any case, the possession of things, as such, does not bring pleasure (except that the first half hour after purchase).

It brings a real treat an experience: Reading books, cooking or eating food, and other activities. But in order to do this, you do not need so many things, so it is worth to keep them?

4. If you do not use the purchased items, maybe you're not the one who considered themselves

You buy a thing, assuming that you will use it. For example, you bought a science fiction novel, or even a few, thinking that you will read them. If in the end you do not read them, so you do not know their preferences or reading is no longer your passion.

You buy things for the usual self, but if you do not use them, it is possible that you have changed. Then it's time to reconsider their purchases in accordance with the new version of itself.

5. You are an example for your children

Your lifestyle, including the attitude towards consumption and the accumulation of unnecessary things - this is an example for your children. Even if you do not learn this right, children learn simple day-to-day watching picture cluttered home and unnecessary purchases.

Perfect life is full of excitement and fun no matter how many possessions you have. Things that do not help to lead a full life, useless. They just steal your money and destroy your ability to become financially independent.

They fill the space and make you buy more spacious apartment and homes that actually you do not need. They take your time it takes to restore order and taking care of these things.

There is no need to radically change their lives, property and the method of acquisition. Suffice it more meaningfully relate to the purchase of new things, and to use the ones you already have.

Once gather strength and to throw out the trash - it's great. For a while, you will enjoy the clean and spacious, but then mountains of trash again imperceptibly grow around you.

Meaningful use and the use of their things - this is the only way to get rid of trash forever.

And remember: each purchase made with an understanding of why you spend money and how to spend them more effectively - this is your victory.
