📚How to Purge Your Books: 

1) Overwhelmed on where to start? Go top to bottom of your bookshelf, left to right, one book at a time, just like reading a book. ;-) 

2) Look at one book at a time, about 2-5 seconds per book, decide: "keep/dont keep," make it your mantra. Had it forever and still never read it? Don't keep. Sentimental? Keep. Already read it and not gonna re-read it? Don't keep. Outdated tech/medical/travel--recycle. Molded/Damaged? Let it go.

3) Drop book donations at your local school, library, senior center, rehab center, community center, Free Lil Library, thrift store. Have a bunch of boxes of donate? Task Rabbit app and Lugg app are same-day on-demand haulers.

MERRY Rule of Thumb

Here's how to apply the MERRY Rule to holiday invitations:

• Money: Can you afford this event (travel, gifts, dining) without financial stress or guilt afterward? Suggest cheaper alternatives if needed.

• Energy: Do you have the physical and mental energy for this activity, or will it just drain you? Be honest about your capacity.

• Return (Value): Is the time spent worth it? Does it bring joy, connection, or fulfill a priority, or is it just another obligation?

• Recovery: Will you have time to recharge afterward? Don't overschedule yourself to the point of needing days to recover.

• You (Your Needs): Does this event genuinely serve your holiday happiness, or are you just saying yes out of obligation? Prioritize your peace. 

By asking these questions, you can say "no" gracefully to draining events and protect your resources for the ones that truly make the holidays feel merry and bright.
