Introduction : Fueling the urge to purge

Making it to fifty

Getting started

Part I. Getting rid of the physical stuff : Your bedroom

Your bathroom

Your kitchen

Your living room

Your dining room

Your attic

Your garage

Part II. Your office: paring down the professional clutter : Clarifying your brand

Keeping what works, eliminating what doesn't

The phoenix rises from the ashes

Part III. Attacking the mental mess: if you think you can separate the physical from the mental clutter, forget about it! : Letting go of feeling inadequate, irrelevant, and just plain not good enough

Letting go of the type of person you think you are - or aren't

Letting go of the regrets and mistakes of the past

Letting go of being right about how wrong everybody and everything is

Letting go of the need to have everyone like you

Letting go of thinking the worst

Letting go of waiting for the right moment

Letting go of needing to feel secure

Letting go of thinking that you have to do everything yourself

Making it to fifty: the celebration

Part IV. Stepping into the clearing : Your vision for the future

Taking energy from your defining moments

Being unforgettable

Find your song - and sing it!

Your declaration to the world

Appendix: Your throw-outs.
