The Great Declutter: My Kryptonite
okudum
 we deserve to use the good stuff.
Okay, I am now giving away the cheap wine glasses. You’re right, Emily, we deserve to use the good stuff. So do my friends. If we break them, we break them. It’s just stuff.
Yay! And better they get broken being used, right?
keep the good stuff and stuff you love, purge the cheap stuff and live it up every day!
I have a tendency to pick things up that were not on my list because they are a good price or whatever. My new thing is keeping the item with tags on it (and receipt) in the bag for a week. If I don’t “need” it during that time, then I return it and get my money back. This is starting to drive me a little nuts and be overly time consuming, so I am thinking that window shopping or not shopping at all (or sticking to my list) might be a lot more efficient.
I know I’m only just discovering your blog, but I wanted to tell you that ITA w/ Emily. Even if you don’t use the good stuff for EVERY meal, make certain meals always family meals (for us this is easy, as we are observant Jews, so each Sabbath every week we have meals together as a family and we use the good stuff). It will bring you pleasure and rid you of the guilt you feel for keeping it

That you can give your children the benefit of your experience and they will avoid all the difficult lessons and get right down to business.   No. Every child must do things on their own way.  They run helter skelter straight into the abyss against all your warnings.  Such is life.
 1) If I knew it would hurt so bad to be old, I would have taken better care of myself and 2) most shit never changes.

  • Time goes by faster as you get older.
  • Your best route to success is learning how to deal with failures.
  • Do what you enjoy.
  •  As I grew from an adolescent to a young male, my life priorities have considerably changed.

    The following have become more important:
  • Career. Work is what I do most of the time I'm awake. I'd better love what I do and be inspired by it.
  • Stable relationship based on trust. Love is different that it used to be, it's turned from acute to chronic. It used to be blazing emotions and now it's more like "home sweet home". It's not better nor worse, it's just different.
  • Money. It keeps me safe.


The following have become less important:
  • Friends. They used to be everything to me, but life has changed. My direct circle of relationship now takes all my attention.
  • Social acceptance. This used to be important when I made new friends, but I can't accommodate any new friends now.
  • Those little every day fun things. I don't need them anymore, it's the end that matters.
  •  How precious life is and everything can end in a second.
  •  When dealing with a difficult relationship, focus less on figuring the other person out and pay attention more to how you feel when you’re dealing with that person. Usually, you can’t understand why you feel the way you do with them until you’re away from them.
    Whenever you’re doing anything compulsively(shopping, alcohol, workaholism, drama-filled relationships), you’re avoiding a feeling. The only way to stop the compulsion is to experience that feeling in a safe place. 
    People are more likely to read bullet points than paragraphs.And people are more likely to read numbered lists than bullet points. 
    You are not responsible for making someone else feel a certain way, do a certain thing, sparing them pain, or making them feel better, no matter how much you think you are helping them. In fact, trying to do so is often about making you feel better. 
    Authenticity, aka compassionate honesty, about yourself and towards others is the only way you will ever find freedom in life.
     You are unlikely to really understand what was going on in your family when you were growing up until your mid-thirties. So hang in there; it really does get better. 
    You’re probably not crazy. You probably grew up in a dysfunctional family. There’s a BIG difference. 
    Wear sunscreen every day, especially if you're fair-skinned. Age spots and wrinkles suck. 
    Hitting bottom is a blessing. It’s a letting go of what wasn’t working and having freedom to do it better.  
    Learn to think critically. Question. Be skeptical. This is how you become who you are, not a carbon copy of those around you.
 We've heard this so many times and thrown it out the window even faster- 'Your health is your wealth'. 

I realized this only after binging on a lot of comfort food through my 20s and facing health issues towards the end of this period. 

None of these issues are difficult to manage, but the priority that health needs to be given, I discovered only once I faced my health demons. So exercise regularly and eat right. 

Whether you know it or not, you are laying a foundation for your health in the future, at a much earlier age.

Family is the closest unit you could go to for help or when in need ( this could differ for other readers) but as I grew up I realised this very clearly.

 Distances don't happen( as is commonly believed), they are built.

So often iv heard people say- 'we just drifted apart, time took a toll on us, etc'  Well the truth is neither or either persons in the relationship lost interest or gave up on the other and hence the distance grew. 

Things don't automatically fall apart...we break them and then blame destiny. (Again, if you've done all in your power to retain a friendship or a bond, then the wise thing to do is to bid adieu to the person, with a joyful heart.
 Find a job you enjoy and that gives you a reason to live.

Like others have mentioned before, work finds you money. Money, to satisfy your basic needs and luxuries. A job with meaning helps you wake up in the morning, with the belief that you are a partaker in the grander scheme of things, lending value to the lives of others.

Watch events and phenomena that we've taken for granted.

Stop to look at the moon and stars from your balcony or your society garden. 
Smell that tea/coffee before you sip it ( advised to do over the weekends, for fear of missing the usual bus or train :p)
Play with that dog or cat you see so often in your building or the neighborhood.
Listen to music that calms you, with your eyes closed.
Switch off the TV and sit around the table or just enjoy a family meal together discussing each other's lives or life's happenings.
Watch the sun rise or set and just state in amazement at this wonder.

Talk much less about others and much more about your own life, your dreams, goals, fears, etc to others.
The song  Sunscreen lyrics by Baz Luhrman...  answer your question

"If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it
The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists
Whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable
Than my own meandering experience, I will dispense this advice now
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth, oh, never mind
You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth
Until they've faded but trust me, in 20 years, you'll look back
At photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now
How much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked
You are not as fat as you imagine
Don't worry about the future
Or know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind
The kind that blindsides you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday
Do one thing every day that scares you
*Sing Chorus*
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts
Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours
Floss
Don't waste your time on jealousy
Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind
The race is long and in the end, it's only with yourself
Remember compliments you receive, forget the insults, if you succeed in doing this, tell me how
Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements
Stretch
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life.
The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives
Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't
Get plenty of calcium
Be kind to your knees
You'll miss them when they're gone
Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't
Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't
Maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the 'Funky Chicken'
On your 75th wedding anniversary
Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much
Or berate yourself either
Your choices are half chance, so are everybody else's
Enjoy your body, use it every way you can
Don't be afraid of it or what other people think of it
It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own
Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your own living room
Read the directions even if you don't follow them
Do not read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly
*Sing Chorus*
Get to know your parents, you never know when they'll be gone for good
Be nice to your siblings, they're your best link to your past
And the people most likely to stick with you in the future
Understand that friends come and go
But a precious few, who should hold on
Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle
For as the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young
Live in New York City once but leave before it makes you hard
Live in northern California once but leave before it makes you soft
Travel
Accept certain inalienable truths
Prices will rise, politicians will philander, you, too, will get old
And when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were young
Prices were reasonable, politicians were noble
And children respected their elders
Respect your elders
Don't expect anyone else to support you
Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse
But you never know when either one might run out
Don't mess too much with your hair
Or by the time you're 40 it will look 85
Be careful whose advice you buy but be patient with those who supply it
Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past
From the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts
And recycling it for more than it's worth
But trust me on the sunscreen
