I didn’t even notice the second section of the book was configured differently, to get rid of emotional trash. I dove in and did the getting rid of stuff. I was inspired. I realized if something is offered free, I would take it whether I needed it or not. And I saw that I believed in having ‘backups’ like two kitchen spatulas, 1 to use and second one in case first one breaks. Ditto white shirts, white tee shirts, down jackets, both puffy and sleek.
But the real change came when I read the chapter on stubbornly holding onto grudges. Key question: would you rather be happy or right? Changed my life.
