A Decluttering Question That Will Simplify Your Life!

I dropped and broke a mug yesterday.

My first thought was one of relief. “At least I don’t have to declutter that when I finally go through that cabinet.”

Which made me start thinking…”What else out of there would make me strangely relieved if it accidentally broke?”

So … my new question when decluttering items I can’t decide about is this: “If it suddenly got destroyed would I be relieved or seek to replace it?”

Ask yourself the same question.

You’re welcome. 🙂

Now … go spend 10 minutes and simplify that area that’s been bugging you (but maybe don’t shatter your unwanted items like I did. A week later we are still getting glass in our feet 😂) and let me know if this question helped!
