People wonder what "clutter" really is. Well - it's just "STUFF".
It could be "good stuff" - but that doesn't mean that it's "good for you".
A lot of time people keep "stuff" just because they haven't gotten around to clearing it out- not because it means something to them.
Letting go of "stuff" - especially when it's memorabilia is really hard. It's emotional. And therein lies the complexities of purging. It you have an attachment to things - it's hard to let go.
In order to "let go" of clutter - you have to change your mentality about the stuff. Don't keep things that have bad memories or things that make you feel sad - or things that your family member gave you that you have no use for. Only keep things if you really like it or if it makes you happy.
Don't bring things into your home that you got "for free" if you don't really need it.
Don't feel the need to keep things that have outlived their usefulness.
Don't bring things into your home that take up room that you don't have.
You deserve to live in a home that is calming and peaceful. Before you buy anything (or get it for free) - ask yourself:
Do I really need it?
Will I actually use it (within 6 months)?
Do I have room for it? (Where - exactly - will I put it)?
Can I afford it?
Will it enhance my life?
If you can't answer these questions - DON'T bring it into your home.
So - say "NO" to Clutter! And live a life with less stress!
Less Clutter = Less Stress SM in your home, your business and your life
