Survey #262—Full Response from Jacqueline

← Go back

July 4, 2025

PronounsShe/her
Please share an “Aha!” moment you’ve experienced as you’ve worked to declutter and organize your home—an inspiration or flash of clarity that made the work easier or less emotionally challenging.I used to save up all my cleaning and housework for my day off, and it would take me HOURS to get my house back from disaster each time I cleaned. I would never get to the decluttering or even to the fun stuff because I ran out of energy. Dana K White’s book How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind got me onto the idea of doing little bits every day to keep up with mess as it happened instead of doing it all at once. It has saved me so much time. I now have time and energy to declutter, and to do fun stuff like crafting, reading, and jigsaw puzzles. The more I declutter, the less stuff there is to manage and to get messy, so there is even more time for fun stuff.
