I often say I’m a minimalist….and I say that to sarcastically justify all of the crap I own. I especially said that phrase every time I moved into college with far too many things and no legitimate reason I needed all of them.

Not everything in life is going to be insane and excessive. Sometimes you just need to throw away an item here and there and these tips will make it a little easier to do so.
