Survey #267—Full Response from Anita O
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Describe ways in which aging has negatively affected your ability, willingness, or desire to declutter or organize your home. | Willingness - I've made lots of progress, but I still resist scheduling consistent time toward clutter projects because I want to prioritize being with family, volunteer service, and other aspects of life that bring me joy. I either make time if I'm "inspired" to work on an area to ease its use/appearance, or short-term if I guilt myself into getting busy on collections I don't want to leave to my heirs to sort out. |
| Describe ways in which getting older has positively affected your ability, willingness, or desire to declutter or organize your home. | Using the decluttering 'muscle' repeatedly / sporadically over the past 4 years has made it easier to make decisions. I've also found that as I get older and have talked with my children about this, it's become easier to let go of items that used to be more sentimental to me. |
| Describe ways in which you’d like for your space and belongings to better support your goals and dreams for the next years of your life. | Tidiness and the related ease of maintenance are increasingly important to me. |
