"A perfect guide to getting the non-essentials out of the way, so that simple joys can make their way into our lives." - Marianne Williamson, author of A Return to Love "If you want to grow, you gotta let go," is the mantra that bestselling author, columnist, and life coach Gail Blanke lives by. That means eliminating all the clutter - physical and emotional - that holds you back, weighs you down, or just makes you feel bad about yourself. In THROW OUT FIFTY THINGS she takes us through each room of the house - from the attic to the garage - and even to the far reaches of our minds. Through poignant and humorous stories, she inspires us to get rid of the "life plaque" we've allowed to build-up there. That junk drawer (you know that drawer) in the kitchen? Empty it! Those old regrets? Throw 'em out! That make-up from your "old" look? Toss it! That relationship that depresses you? Dump it! Once you've hit fifty (you'll be surprised how easy it is to get there) and once you've thrown out that too-tight belt and too-small view of yourself, you'll be ready to step out into the clearing and into the next, and greatest, segment of your life.… (altro)

I have read so many decluttering books, determined to clean out my house. This book did not disappoint. When I think of clutter, I often think of mostly my family members and not me. This book made me realize that not only did I have clutter in my own life, but that it was more of a "letting go" kind of clutter. I don't want to give away spoilers, but the points mentioned made me think and realize what I need to do to declutter. ( )

I really learned a lot through this book. I am working on clearing out the clutter in my house and mind. I recommend all of my friends (and everyone else) to pick this up. It isn't your ordinary self-help book. A lot of great idea, stories, and insights are to be had from this book. I am still trying to decide what is my song (you have to read the book first and then you will know). ( )

I had read this book a few years back and learned a lot about myself in the process. I recently picked it up again as a source to remove some unnecessary things from my life. I found new insights that I hadn't before. I am not a fan of "self-help" books as most don't seem to really help the reader. They tell them what to do or how they should change themselves. However, this book is different. It focuses you on being a more reflective person, which is the true way to help the self. Gail uses personal anecdotes (her own and some former clients or friends) to really drive the point home. The stories are often emotional. They are very relateable and poignant. I also recommend the audio book that the author herself narrates. It is a book that I'd actually highly recommend to everyone, not just my friends. ( )

Clutter clearing from a very white-privileged, upper-income-bracket point of view. Reads very much like mid-day talk show advice. I did not find it particularly useful. The resource list might be, but it is now nearly ten years out of date. ( )

I'm reading this slowly as I actually throw fifty things out (which means 50 categories of things,not 50 items)...so far, some good progress. I'm not sure if the book is better than most de-cluttering books or if I'm just ready...a little of both, I think.

This is the actual book of Throw Out Fifty Things. The Audiobook is abridged, everywhere it's available, and should NOT be combined with the actual book.
