Survey #178 Response from Rowan
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Name the collections or categories of stuff in your home that are typically most likely to become cluttered. | canned goods, paper goods |
| Complete the following statement: “My clutter started to become a problem when _____.” | moved to my own place |
| Describe a habit or routine behavior that you would like to cultivate—or eliminate—to help you or other members of your household get a better handle on household clutter. | started folding laundry while watching youtubes 🙂 |
| Name one or more of your favorite Clutter Fairy-isms (e.g., “thin the herd”) or decluttering and organizing mnemonic devices (e.g., OHIO—Only Handle It Once). | We overestimate how much we can get done in a day and totally underestimate how much we can get done in 15 minutes a day |
| Future topics | When you are feeling terrible, when the last thing you want to do is to deal with your stuff, that is exactly the time to do some decluttering. You will feel soooo much better just accomplishing that. Even if it is a small pile of stuff, even if it is only one drawer, you will feel better because the burden of that giant mountain of stuff is that little bit smaller, a little bit lighter. In the same way that we underestimate how much we can accomplish in 15 minutes, we also underestimate the impact that even one tiny cleared surface can make in our lives. (yes rowan writes to much) |
