Survey #251—Full Response from Lela
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Describe a category of stuff, an area of your home, or an organizing or decluttering project or task that you’ve found particularly challenging. | Sentimental stuff — because my family members get upset when I declutter it, even personal items I assumed should only be sentimental to me & not them (I don’t declutter their property). |
| What advice might you give your younger self to help reduce or avoid the challenge you described in the previous question? | Declutter personal sentimental items sooner — as you go along in life — before you are married or have kids. When you are older, you will sometimes be embarrassed for your family to see those silly old knick knacks and journals anyway because you will be a different person by then. |
| Describe a category of stuff, an area of your home, or an organizing or decluttering project or task that you’ve found satisfying or enjoyable to work on. | Decluttering anything gives me a thrill because that’s one less thing to maintain! Freedom! |
| What feelings or emotions do you associate with your answer to the first question (The Challenge)? What feelings or emotions do you associate with your answer to the third question (The Good Stuff)? | Challenge = frustration & disappointment Good = freedom |
