Like the one sitting in my hallway from this weekend when I cleaned out my daughter's room. LOL. Then it will travel to my trunk where it will sit until I finally make that trip (which the trunk will probably have accumulated 3 more bags). my problem is I don’t always get that bag off to the Goodwill.

I love Zen Habits. Anyway, I would say that #6 Learning to Say No is a favorite. I am involved in a very active neighborhood group and I'm always saying no to projects. I just don't have time for them all. I've backed away in a big way and only really update the blog and even then I'm trying to pass that baton as well. #9 Purge Your Stuff is a super big favorite of mine. Too much stuff stresses me out. I like clean, modern, uncluttered spaces. Mine is often FAR from that, but it's what I strive for. I keep a Goodwill bag in my pantry and in my bedroom for when I find something to purge. When the bag is full, I drop it off. Ahh, what a great feeling! Okay, I didn’t read the entire article (#8 limiting media?), but I will later. I love Zen Habits.
