Survey #164 Response from C
| What are your most compelling reasons to reduce clutter and/or to get organized? These may include your personal goals, work objectives, plans, fears, physical limitations, lifestyle choices, family history, etc. | To make life easier as we age. To not leave a burden to the next generation. To make decisions while we still can. Failing health adds urgency. |
|---|---|
| What external factors drive or support your organizing efforts? Think about positive or negative signals from outside yourself that influence your desire or inclination to declutter and organize. (Examples: pressure from your spouse, stuff inherited from elder family members, a need to work from home, etc.) | Knowing we cannot expect help from immediate family, we must push ourselves to do this on our own. I also want to turn present storage room to extra room for guests or self to sleep in. Wanted to do this for the past decade. |
| What internal factors support your organizing efforts? Think about positive or negative thoughts or feelings that influence your desire or inclination to declutter and organize. (Examples: the urge to start a new hobby, feelings of guilt or shame, a desire to share your surplus with people who need it, etc.) | I love it when I can help someone out with some of my extras. I love it when it's easy to dispose ecologically too. I'd like to generate some money from some art I've inherited but can't get going, hesitate too much. |
| What is the most exciting way in which your life will be different when you achieve your organizing goal(s)? | Space! Easy or easier to put away and find things. Easier to tidy up and clean. Pleasure knowing most of my extras are being used or are appreciated by others. |
