PronounsShe/her
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?My misconception is that I could put things off until I was older or next year, or when I'm retired, etc.. It has dawned on me that physically I may not be able to easily unload my stuff in the future. I need to get rid of stuff NOW while I'm able to lift the box and drive it to the thrift store. I know some ladies who are past this point (no longer can drive and/or are physically weak using walkers and canes) and are stuck in hoarded houses. I don't want to end up like that!

Second misconception: my stuff is valuable. If you believe that -- visit your local thrift store!
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 might need this! I'm talking about paper items here. Most physical stuff can be replaced.
