Whoa, mid-week blog post?!
Your house isn’t the only thing this Spring that needs a bit of an airing out and scrubbing. How many times have you looked at your inbox and thought, “Wow, I really need to delete these old emails…. nah I’ll do it later”? For me, it’s like 123817237 times. So after you Spring clean your home, why don’t you Spring clean your tech?
Grab a drink and a snack and put on some comfy clothes. I also like to play a TV show or movie that I’ve already seen in the background. Once you’re settled, it’s time to grab your phone and get deleting. Go through your photos, transfer the ones you want to keep to your computer/external hard drive, and delete the rest. Go through and purge your old text messages, unless they hold some sort of incredibly useful tidbit. Did you know how much memory your old texts take up? A LOT! Finally, grab an alcohol wipe and wipe down your phone surfaces! Technically you should be doing this once a week, but better late than never, right?
Now, move on to your computer. Go through old emails, Facebook messages, etc., and purge, purge, purge! Now is the time to finally unsubscribe from all those newsletters and store promotions you’ve been meaning to for months. Clean up your desktop! Transfer to an external hard drive or delete old photos and videos! Freshen up your desktop background, profile picture, and header! Update your bookmarks! Geez, even go through and follow/unfollow people!
Ah, now don’t you feel better?
