Describe a popular myth or misconception about clutter or organizing that you believed in the past, but have now come to see as incorrect. Who or what changed your mind about this idea?I used to think that decluttering would make my house stay organized.

Describe a limiting belief about clutter or organizing that negatively affects your ability or willingness to address your home organization issues. This may be a belief that you inherited, picked up from popular culture, received from friends or family, or came up with all on your own!I'm too absent-minded to keep track of where I keep things, so I may as well not even try to organize
Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode.How can we declutter one-of-a kind items (like rare books) that have a niche fan base? I worry that if I donate them they will be thrown out, or someone will charge a ton of money to resell it. I want these items to get to someone who will use them and get them at a fair price, but don't know anyone personally who wants them.
