Declutter - Your Space, Your Things, Your Mind
Recently we decided to downsize to a smaller place to live and we got rid of some things. I used to hear people talk about decluttering and what it meant for them, but I never really believed how much decluttering everything in your life could affect you.?
You Won’t Miss It
We went through the whole house, we went through everything. I’m amazed how the decluttering of things really has affected the decluttering of myself and my opinion within the house.?
So, you may all have been through this and maybe it's my turn to go through this, but it has been freeing to recognize how extra space and extra things just don’t matter. The things that aren’t in the closet anymore, really don’t end up being missed.?
Decluttering = Energizing
I have caught myself multiple times saying I decluttered material things, but I ended up feeling like I decluttered my mind and my space and that connection is just fascinating to me. Being the engineer in me and not the psychologist, it has just been refreshing to say that I can let go of some of these other things physically.? The space itself creates an area that I want to be in, that I want to work in and that energizes me a bit more.?
As you're considering keeping all of those things, remember that there's something to this decluttering thing that's not just spatial.
