1.Go through your social media
Delete people you barely know and people who make a negative impact. I deleted 51 “friends” on Facebook and deleted like 3 picture albums. They were just part of the past that needed to be swept away.
2. Go through your phone.
I compulsively delete pictures and text messages daily. But if you’re not a weirdo like me, take some time to get rid of those texts you reread to make yourself feel bad and those pictures that don’t stir up good memories. And delete any contact in your phone that is unnecessary – I deleted 29 people from my contacts.
3. Go through your music.
Download the songs you’ve been dying to listen to and delete the ones that you constantly skip over. Get rid of the playlists made by exes and bring in the new.
4. Donate your old clothes.
I think I had two trash bags full of old clothes that I hadn’t worn in years. Get rid of the extra clutter and make room for your new gifts. Donate them to someone who needs them.
5. Physically clean something.
Vacuum your room and remove the 15 half empty water bottles from your car. Start fresh.
6. Get rid of the junk food.
Actually stick to your resolutions and clean out your snack cabinet.
7. Try a new work out.
Clean up your gym routine and try something new, no more half assed squats and a brisk walk on the treadmill.
8. Clean up your attitude!
Out with the negative, in the with positive. You had all of 2015 to wallow in the things that weren’t going right in your life. 365 days passed where you didn’t make a change. So do it now, there’s no better time to appreciate what you have and start living life with a different point of view.

I’ve also stopped following some blogs and added lots of new ones. Tastes change.

I’ve done some of these, probably the easy ones though! 🙂 I deleted quite a few friends on Facebook and unliked so many pages that kept clogging my timeline with things I am uninterested in.
I am also doing Dry January- probably because I was a state on New Year’s Eve- but I hope to carry it on further than just one month. 🙂

I refuse to donate old clothes. I will be darn if my 90’s jeans come back in style I have to shell out a couple hundred bucks to buy a pair when I had a closet full of them. Nope, not doing it.

I simply completely crashed my smartphone at Gatwick airport – all contacts lost and no backup or sync installed – that was a good start to explore new avenues …
