Many items you thought useless can be of good use.Plastics bottles,soda cans,polythene covers,newspapers,old trays and utensils and so on.You bought these things giving money and it has the potential to help you to earn money too.
Once while vaccating an apartment i wanted to throw away many things as trays,old utensils,broken furniture etc.At the same time i wanted to sell some electronic goods.So I put a garage sale and many of my things including things that i thought useless to be thrown away was taken during that sale.Many people said many of those things were antiques.So i learned that what I considered useless was useful in others eyes.
There are so many sites as E-BAY which is having collectors corner.There are collector's corner in places as SALVATION ARMY shops and other places to collect waste to be reused.So stop throwing away.Give it to people who can put some use to it.
Even the palm leaves and other parts of mant trees can be used for making handicraft items.Just cutting and colouring those tree parts can transform the useless into useful.
In my garden ,one plant used to grow very fast and I wanted to throw it away.Even i plucked some plants and threw then away.Later during a grocery shopping in another country,I saw the same plant leaves kept under vegetable section for sale.
All these made be realise that there is nothing useless as waste.So stop considering something as waste and think produtively.
