Playing the 30-Day Minimalism Game

I heard about the 30-Day Minimalism Game years ago, and I put it off for various reasons ever since.

Every once in a while I will browse #MinsGame on Instagram, and just seeing all of the things other people are getting rid of makes me feel more at peace. When I’m having a stressful day at work, I’ll spend a few minutes cruising through the pictures from around the world until I feel better.

It’s pretty clear I need to do the game myself. I already pretty much know what I’m getting rid of for the first week or so. I’ve picked out my donation center, a new store to try to sell some clothes to, and I finally remember my eBay password… I think.

I’m willing to get creative and get rid of digital clutter if I really truly run out of things, although the more I think about it, the more unlikely it seems that I will need to dive that deep. I have a whole garage hiding random things left behind from the last tenants.

January is right around the corner, and I’d love to start the new year with more space and without the constant desire to get rid of things.

Day 1 is done.

Are you in?
