| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| 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. | Remove house full of unwanted clutter inherited from parents. Simplify my own belongings for easier home management. |
| 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.) | I dislike the feeling of clutter and having to paw through things to find a specific item. My parent's clutter holds both good and bad memories for me, mostly bad, that I don't want to have in my life. |
| 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.) | My parents were Great Depression babies and were trained to save everything because you or someone else might need it some day. I fight this while decluttering and solve the problem with 'time will tell' boxes in the garage. Anything that fights back and gives me a hard time about removing it from my house, goes into a box and dated. The box goes to donation center after 6 months of non use. |
| What is the most exciting way in which your life will be different when you achieve your organizing goal(s)? | More space in the house for more houseplants! Empty bedrooms I can rent in the future. |
