It's time to treat the 'smaller issues' in life seriously

I set a goal for this month at the end of last month, and it is to clean up my apartment. The obstacle here is to throw away stuff that I am attached to but is useless in the eyes of everyone else.

It is so difficult to throw things away that I think about renting a mini-storage unit. They are cheap, costing 1,000 yuan ($163) for one cubic meter's space a year. But they are in the suburbs, so I approached friends who have a car. The answer has always been a no, plus suggestions for me to throw away things.

A girl even offered me a gift last week, and it is a book about how one can get the determination to throw stuff away. It was first published in Japan and translated into Chinese. It has nearly 20 chapters, each kind of stuff being given one chapter.
