The past few days I have been decluttering my house. We have some showings starting today and I want my house to look really good and airy. Being a home stager in the past, I know how important it is for the prospecting buyer to enter a house that is pleasant to the eyes, decluttered, and clean. So I have been working very hard at it.
I had accumulated so much stuff the past 10 years spent in this house, it is absolutely insane.
The basement although quite big, was full.
I had 6 huge closets full of cloths from size 0 to size 8.
I had 100 plus pair of shoes.
Cloths from my son from age 2 to age 13.
Old magazines, books, children books.
My husband's tools and papers, etc….etc….
Actually, it feels very good to have less things around, and my husband loves it too.
I came to realize that the more I get rid of old cloths and things I have been keeping for a long time for sentimental reasons, the better I feel.
I knew it would happen and I definitely knew it was a process I needed to go through, but until I was forced to do it, I was resisting it. I kept holding on to things like a safety net. Little did I know that they were actually keeping me from going forward.
Now that it is done I am wondering why I waited so long to do it?
Not only does my house look beautiful to the eyes, it also feels amazing to the soul.
I feel more energized, light and absolutely ready to start fresh.
My past is behind me, it is not anchored me anymore. I do have wings to fly in all areas of my life.
It allows me space to move forward in my life and my business.
Why would you want to wait for the big move to get rid of clutter that is sucking the life out of you?
You do not realize how draining it can be until you get rid of it.
No kidding… It is a life changing.
It affects all part of your life. Yes!!! It really does.
Try it right now!!!
Look around your house and find clutter you have been tolerated for a while, it can be your closet, your kitchen drawers, your kitchen counter, your desk, … Take some time right now to declutter that space.
If you have time to be on the computer to read my article, you can take 5 to 15 mints right now to do it.
I will end with this word of wisdom form Mother Theresa.
"The more you have, the more you are occupied. The less you have, the more free you are."
Congratulations!!! You have done it!!!
