Have you ever felt stuck in “indecision land”?
Deciding what to keep vs. what to donate can cause analysis paralysis. To continue working toward your decluttering goal, try following the advice of William Morris, a 19th center designer, poet, and artist: “Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be beautiful or believe to be useful."
Here are a few questions to help with making decisions:
- Is the item a need or a want? Needs will stay and wants will go.
- Will you use it in a timely fashion (i.e. before it expires, within the next few months, etc.)? Or, can you give it away for someone else to use?
- If it's beautiful, do you have space for it? Or, are you ready to let someone else enjoy it?
Still not sure what to pare down? I would love to help you work through this process. My virtual mentoring sessions are a great way to overcome current roadblocks, explore strategies, ignite new solutions, and create sustainable practices to maintain order. Please contact me for more information.
I'm wishing y'all clarity and decisiveness. Happy decluttering, friends!
