Acerca de esta escucha
Throw Out Fifty Things is truly an eye-opener. According to Blanke, our lives are so filled with junk from the past—from dried up tubes of crazy glue to old grudges—that's it's a wonder we can get up in the morning, never mind go to work, care for our children and parents, and just put one foot in front of the other.
Blanke wants to start a movement of people across America throwing out 50 things (magazines count as one!) that will help liberate us from the stuff—both physical and mental—that clutters our lives. It's the physical stuff that keeps us from being happy and calm in our house—not to mention keeps us from finding our keys in the morning! And it is the clutter in our mind that drags us down and holds us back from living the life we want to live.
Blanke takes the listener through each room in the house and helps us figure out what to throw out that will help us move forward. She'll show us how to find and throw out "toxic" possessions that remind us of failed relationships, bad jobs, etc., and she'll help us figure out what to keep in order to help us find out who we really are.

While the world seems to be in love with the idea of tiny houses and minimalism, many of us simply can't purge it all and start from nothing. Yet a home with too much stuff is difficult to maintain, so where do we begin? Add in paralyzing emotional attachments and constant life challenges, and it can feel almost impossible to make real decluttering progress.

Finally, a housekeeping and organizational system developed for those of us who'd describe our current living situation as a "f--king mess" that we "really need to get around to fixing one day". Unf--k Your Habitat is for anyone who has been left behind by traditional aspirational systems - the ones that ignore single people with full-time jobs, people without kids but living with roommates, and people with mental illnesses or physical limitations. Most organizational books are aimed at stay-at-home moms and people who seem to have unimaginable amounts of free time.

If you’re struggling to stay on top of your to-do list, you probably have a good reason: anxiety, fatigue, depression, ADHD, or lack of support. For therapist KC Davis, the birth of her second child triggered a stress-mess cycle. The more behind she felt, the less motivated she was to start. She didn’t fold a single piece of laundry for seven months. One life-changing realization restored her sanity—and the functionality of her home: You don’t work for your home; your home works for you.

Historia
In Sweden there is a kind of decluttering called döstädning, dö meaning "death" and städning meaning "cleaning." This surprising and invigorating process of clearing out unnecessary belongings can be undertaken at any age or life stage but should be done sooner rather than later, before others have to do it for you. In The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning, artist Margareta Magnusson, with Scandinavian humor and wisdom, instructs listeners to embrace minimalism.

The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate. This widely acclaimed bestseller, in which Malcolm Gladwell explores and brilliantly illuminates the tipping point phenomenon, is already changing the way people throughout the world think about selling products and disseminating ideas.

When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave - "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams" - wasn't about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because "time is all you have... and you may find one day that you have less than you think").

Fumio Sasaki is not an enlightened minimalism expert or organizing guru like Marie Kondo - he's just a regular guy who was stressed out and constantly comparing himself to others, until one day he decided to change his life by saying goodbye to everything he didn't absolutely need. The effects were remarkable: Sasaki gained true freedom, new focus, and a real sense of gratitude for everything around him.

Life - if you've ever thought you might be doing it wrong, you're not alone. Objects in the Mirror: Thoughts on a Perfect Life from an Imperfect Person is a collection of essays that explores what it means to be alive. Like Polaroids framing the years of a troubadour and family man afflicted with an excess of self-awareness, these are stories without any clear good guys or bad guys. Instead, in each of these vignettes you will find dysfunctional humans trying to do their best and bouncing off each other in the process.

For Tee, losing her job is like a death, but with time, and some bumps, bruises and a new attitude, she comes out on the other side, having reassessed what's important in her life.

Historia
Louie Anderson has been channeling his beloved mom in his iconic stand-up comedy for decades - but she passed away before getting to see him reach new heights with his breakout role. Hey Mom is Louie's way of catching Ora Zella Anderson up on everything that has been going on in his life, including his continued struggles with food and family, but also how so much has changed for the better. He also has plenty of laugh-out-loud stories about his incredibly resilient mother and his 10 siblings, as well as observations on the absurdities of life.

Dead is dead. Missing is gone. When Felix Brewer meets nineteen-year-old Bernadette "Bambi" Gottschalk at a Valentine's Day dance in 1959, he charms her with wild promises, some of which he actually keeps. Thanks to his lucrative - if not all legal - businesses, she and their three little girls live in luxury. But on the Fourth of July in 1976, Bambi's comfortable world implodes when Felix, facing prison, vanishes. Though Bambi has no idea where her husband - or his money - might be, she suspects one woman does: his devoted young mistress, Julie.

Rather, he learned them in the past few years, working on his own and practicing on the subway, using simple techniques and free online resources—and here he wants to show others what he’s discovered. This is brain hacking at its most exciting, taking what we know about neuroscience and linguistics and using it to create the most efficient and enjoyable way to learn a foreign language in the spare minutes of your day.

Decluttering is not just for your closets..
Would you consider the audio edition of Throw Out Fifty Things to be better than the print version?
Haven't seen the book but I have often bought both for reference.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Throw Out Fifty Things?
Talking about the emotional clutter is very profound
What does Gail Blanke bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I buy audio because it works better for my busy life, with just the book I would probably skip over a lot and miss immportant issues.
What insight do you think you’ll apply from Throw Out Fifty Things?
To just get started and don't wait until I have time to clear out everything.

I'm Throwing Out 50 Things
I am not a hoarder, and really don't mean to be a pack rat, but things stack up on me. I am grateful that this book has given me permission, so to speak, to get rid of so many things in my life that I will never use again. I love that Gail Blanke made the connection between physical excess and mental excess. Cleaning up one leads to cleaning up the other. I just sent two huge bags of clothing and two bags of books to D.I., our local thrift store, and I happily waved good-bye to them. Maybe this is a life changing book.
Ms. Blanke did a great job of reading her own book.

Not what I expected
I got this book because I am into minimalism. The first few chapters are about paring down, but then the author launches into motivational stuff, encouraging the reader to let go of obstacles to success. It's just not what I wanted.

This approach really was helpful to me beyond what I expected
The author's approach ended up being more helpful than I had originally anticipated. I knew that decluttering and tidying up would be helpful for me as a person and for my psyche (you know "As without, so within; as above, so below", or however that saying goes). But, you must give this one a listen because it is an OVERALL help more than merely a decluttering manual.
Please forgive me I am not much of a book reviewer. And be sure to listen to the sample audio to see if you can stand her voice. I found it OK although I was a tad distracted by her "homespun" way of speaking. I found the author to be very likable.

More to it than just 50 things!
Where does Throw Out Fifty Things rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is an actionable book, one that has inspired me to further reduce clutter in many categories - including mental clutter!
What did you like best about this story?
That is not just about finding 50 things to throw away as the title may imply. There's some depth to it as well. Reading this book reminds readers that there is more to clutter than just extra stuff around the house. This is an overall wellness book that you really should pick up! RECOMMEND!

Great Concept! Great Plan! Very Good Book!
Where does Throw Out Fifty Things rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
It wasn't the best book I have read in the last year but one that I have decided to take to heart and do. I'd say out of the 35 i've read in the last year, it'd be in the top 50%
What other book might you compare Throw Out Fifty Things to and why?
Goals: How to get everything you want by Brian Tracy
Did Gail Blanke do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
Yes, the stories were great but I would have preferred a more dynamic/conversational reading.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
This wouldn't be a film

Great book - Men, read between the lines...
This is a great book. It seems to be aimed toward women, but it can be just as useful to men if they just read between the lines and take the examples as just that - examples. She talks a lot about makeup, clothes, shoes, etc. Men an just substitute the obvious, like tools, etc. It might seem obvious, but if someone is as in-need-of-a-change to buy this (audio)book, every little bit helps. Sometimes it's easy to make excuses. ;)

So useful, listened to it a 2nd time right away.
There are a host of books on how to declutter, I have a bunch myself somewhere...
So the message isn't new but the author/narrator is easy to listen to and very insightful. As she spoke, I found myself nodding my head thinking "that's me" as she described a variety of different types of clutter from room to room.
But where this book really excels and differs from previous reads is when Gail Blanke starts to address the clutter in our minds and issues we tend to hold onto, in most cases for far too long. It was enlightening to say the least.
My home office has honestly never looked better after listening to this. It's truly a great feeling to walk into it again after years of a mess and the horrible weighted down feeling I'd get from knowing it needed to be addressed but didn't know where to start.
There is soo much helpful information that I felt I had to listen to it again just to review and internalize the lessons better. Normally after listening to a book I move on to my next title. But this one is worth multiple listens.
I'm grateful to have come across this title and to the author for the genuine help this has been. It's a relatively quick and easy listen, one I'd whole heartedly recommend!
