"Our lives are so filled with junk from the past-from dried up tubes of glue to old grudges-that it"s a wonder we can get up in the morning," exclaims motivator, best-selling author, columnist, and life coach Gail Blanke. "If you want to grow, you gotta let go," is Blanke"s mantra; and 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.
