How do I eliminate all the extra stuff in my life?

Simplify Your Life

Don't Sweat the Small Stuff article by Richard Carlson. Ph.D.: Make a “conscious, voluntary decision to simplify your life….Begin in small ways. Learn to say ‘no' more often, reduce, where appropriate, a few of your obligations, and stop taking on more—unless and until you counter your new obligation by eliminating a different one. Get rid of stuff you don't need. Consolidate, reduce your consumption, and think in terms of quality of experience, not quantity. Finally, learn to value space in your calendar. If you do manage to create some free time, try not to fill it up with something else.”
