get rid of the possessions I don't even want

I like the idea of a simple life with the necessities. I went through my closets last week and gave away 1/4 of my clothes. I just had crap I was keeping just in case I would need a certain color or style… I pictured women who were actually in need of clothes and it made putting things in a box much easier. Same with shoes. I put the books I didn’t want up for sale on half.com.

I would like to be able to move with ease. Get up and go. Without carrying crap I may need someday across the country. I’m trying to scan documents and receive my bills and statements online to get rid of the mountain of paper clutter that never ends.

Any more practical ideas? :)
