Lesson 744: Techniques for Improving Decision-Making and Letting Go of Items
Objective: To establish a rational space between "reluctance to part with" and "must keep".
Steps: Draw a forking path, one leading to "Keep" and the other to "Let Go". At the fork, draw a heart-shaped signpost and write: "I choose lightness". While drawing, imagine the sense of space after the objects are removed, allowing your body to experience the freedom of "letting go" rather than loss.

○ 744. Techniques for Improving Decision-Making and Letting Go of Items: Journal-Guided Suggestions
① Three decision-making questions: Is it used? Is it repeated? Is it replaceable? Use the checkbox method to quickly decide.
② Set up “entry and exit rules”: for every item that comes in, one item must go out; establish a temporary entry and exit area at the doorstep.
③ Leverage instead of getting hung up: Use the 3-box method (keep/donate/recycle) and set a 15-minute limit.
④ Train the “60-second decision” muscle: give a “good enough” answer within the time limit, rather than a perfect answer.
⑤ Today’s partner: Invite a trusted person to observe or time the session to reduce the risk of regret.
⑥ Conclusion: Speed and accuracy come from practice, not from waiting for inspiration.
