🍂 It’s already starting!
Have you noticed all the ads for NEW fall and holiday decorations? 🎄
Before we bring one more thing into our homes, maybe we need to talk about what we’re already storing. 😉
This is the time of year when we’re putting away summer things, pulling out the fall decorations…and before we know it, we’ll be digging out all of the Christmas stuff too.
And sometimes just trying to FIND those decorations makes us realize:
“Oh my goodness. Why do we still have all of this?” 😳
So we start going through it…
Someone gave me that.
I paid a lot for that.
I might need that someday.
Maybe the kids will want it.
And suddenly, everything goes right back where it was.
I see this with clients all the time.
Sometimes clutter isn’t really an organizing problem.
👉 It’s a decision problem, and sometimes, it’s a guilt problem.
So as you’re changing things out this fall, try asking yourself:
“If I didn’t already own this, would I choose to bring it into my home today?”
That one question can tell you a LOT.
You don’t have to get rid of everything. And you certainly don’t have to become a minimalist.
But before the holidays bring more decorations, more gifts and more stuff into our homes, this is a great time to make a little room.
Room for the things you actually use.
Room for the things you really love.
And maybe even a little more breathing room for YOU. 💙
🍂 That’s what we’re talking about this month: letting go without the guilt.
