Sell 3 of your personal items. We as a culture have too many 'things.' We should have memories. So stop shopping on Amazon this week and start operating on Craigslist, OfferUp, Facebook Marketplace, LetGo, etc. to sell some things you haven't touched in the past year. I have been trying to get rid of some of my possessions for a while now and am completely unsuccessful. So this week, I'm digging in and accomplishing the daunting task. I don't want to get to the super small minimalist life, but I have been studying what I use on a daily basis lately, and it's not much. A few sets of clothes, some adventure gear, morning tea cup and some running shoes maybe? I don't need everything I own, and I'm pretty sure you don't either. So join me and sell some shit. Give it to those who probably don't need it either?? Haha. It should be a good week because this is 100% measurable. Mark your items and get to selling, we'll all know if we're successful this week. It's either we sold our stuff or not. So take advantage of the internet and get to selling! Good luck and release!

REFLECTION: Did anyone sell anything? Because I felt like I didn't get any better and sold nothing.. I put my stuff on Letgo, OfferUp, Craigslist, and word of mouth and nothing went. I had a backpack, some clothes, a BOSE speaker, misc. gadgets I don't ever use anymore and nothing went. I'm absolutely terrible. It's like I learned nothing. A few positives to take away from this week are I tried and failed, but least I tried. I will always rather be the man in the arena than the spectator and that's exactly what I accomplished this week. And I learned a few things in the process. Don't be greedy and price your items low. Be available at all times during the day for a rapid response time. Be open to low balls, trades, etc on all your items. And come into the whole thing with a positive attitude because there is always things to be sold and always people to buy them. So I lost.. Whatever. I'm going to keep trying to sell my stuff because this week didn't change anything for me, ultimately I still want them sold and gone from my life, so fortunately my time does not stop here. We just have to keep on pushing.
Maybe your weeks went differently from mine. Hopefully you were able to sell some items and get some things off your chest this week. Or maybe you were just like me but put yourself inside that arena! So good job regards and off into the next week!
