Do’s and Don’ts of Donating

Giving up your unused or unwanted stuff is a great way to make space in your home for the items that you do enjoy on a regular basis. Not sure where to start? Here are some do’s and don’ts of donating your belongings.

Do Prepare Your Clothes

You’ve thoroughly cleaned out your closet and drawers, and have a mountain of clothing waiting to be donated. 1. Make sure all buttons are accounted for, and that you can’t see any dirty marks, or damage.

2.

The number one rule of donating your stuff is to make sure that it’s in good, usable condition. Don’t pass along old clothes or furniture, chipped dishes, books that are missing pages, or toys with lost pieces. Nobody wants to accept your damaged belongings. Find a local company that will recycle these items instead.

Don’t even think of donating these items

With a little common sense it’s easy to figure out items that are ideal for donations.3.As a gentle reminder, it’s never a good idea to donate car parts, dangerous waste, construction materials and weapons.

Don’t donate large appliances

Major appliances such as stoves, fridges, freezers, washers and dryers typically reside on the ‘do not donate’ list due to health and safety reasons. All items accepted for donation must be thoroughly clean and in good working order. With secondhand appliances, it can be difficult to guarantee that they fit the bill.4.

Don’t donate recalled items

Every so often a product recall hits the news headlines. Highchairs, toys, holiday lights for Christmas trees—the list of recalled items due to safety concerns is endless. 5. A dangerous product should be thrown away, and not passed on to an unsuspecting person. Think of the well-being of others before dropping off something that’s viewed as a hidden danger in your own home.

A. They’re all acceptable items for donation, too.

B. Instead of donating an unwanted large appliance, call your local trash collection company and arrange for their safe disposal.

C. But unfortunately some people will throw away the contents of their home without a second thought.

D. Before you bag up these pieces, inspect each one to ensure that they’re in good condition and ready to be owned by someone else.

E. Don’t donate damaged items.

F. Clothes aren’t the only household items that can be donated.

G. Never donate recalled items!

Little Habits Make a Big Difference

Everything around us is changing at amazing speed, it seems---but some things will always remain the same. 1. Some of our daily habits have the power to always give us happiness and lead toward success. Here are some little habits that can make a big difference:

1. 2. Many studies have linked early rising with success. An early morning wake-up carries benefits including better planning and anticipation(预料)of problems, and more time to the things that make you happy.

2. Happiness comes to those who are curious. 3. As long as you live, there will always be something to learn, and as long as you follow your heart and your passions, you won’t miss out on learning.

3. Believe in yourself and all that you are. 4. Confidence is the key to success—the thing that lets you look at the past without regret, stay grounded in the present, and prepare for the future without fear.

4. A day well spent gets you a good night sleep. Enough sleep makes you feel healthier and happier, and it’s more than lifting up you or removing exhaustion(疲惫). Adequate sleep is a key part of your health and inner happiness. 5.

It doesn’t take a huge effort to make a significant change in your life---using one or two tiny habits may be all you need. Get started today and you’ll soon be experiencing the rewards.

A. That’s why habits are so powerful.

B. The ground work of all happiness is good health.

C. Early to rise makes you healthy, wealthy, and wise.

There are many principles and values all people live by. The _______ that I live by is honesty. I have always been taught that lying will just get me into more trouble than I might already be _______. Being honest is a _______ all people need to have and use to go _______ in life.

Ever since I was a little kid, my parents have _______ me to be honest _______ it is the right thing to do. As I got _______, I realized something very important that could _______ the way people take me to be a person. If just once you stop being honest and tell a lie it will _______ change people’s opinion of you and their whole way of acting ________ you. When you tell a lie you lose that person’s ________ forever or have to work your whole life to get it back.

It is my personal ________ to achieve great things in life and honesty will sure help me get there. For me right now losing somebody’s trust would be a truly ________ thing. Whatever you do for a living or ________ you live, honesty is something important for all of us.

Honesty gets you much higher in life than getting into more ________ like lying would. Lying can ________ get you into trouble dealing with the government. Honesty is just as important to me as my family. Already, I know it is something that will ________ my future and my relationship with all people. It is something about myself that I hope to never ________ no matter what happens. Most of all honesty will help me no matter whether I’m at school, home or just ________ with friends.
