This might sound small, but it made a big difference for me.

I decided to go through my mugs using the KonMari method. I had around 12. 15 mugs collected over time. Some were gifts, some I bought randomly, and honestly I was only using 2 or 3 of them.

I took all of them out and held each one. Instead of thinking “it’s still usable,” I asked myself if I actually enjoy drinking from it. A few felt too heavy, some had faded prints, and a couple I just didn’t like anymore.

In the end, I kept only 3 mugs that I really like using. The rest I donated.

After putting them back, my shelf looked so clean and simple. Now every time I make tea or coffee, I don’t have to choose between many options. I just pick one I already love.

Why this worked for me:

Before, I kept things because they were fine. This time, I focused on what I actually enjoy using daily. That made it easier to let go.

What I learned:

Having fewer choices can actually feel better.…
