Enough
"Enough is enough"
"That's enough"
"Leave good enough alone"
"Close enough is good enough"
It's amazing how one simple word can relate so deeply to our relationship with clutter and our satisfaction with our stuff and life in general.
This week we talk about how some enough statements can really make you take stock of where you are at and where your satisfaction lies.
You Are Enough - Stuff won't make you enough. More stuff, less stuff... you are enough regardless of your things.
You've Done Enough - Do what you can with what you have. Every step forward is a step forward (I know... profound!)
What Is Enough - What do you need to be happy? How many of something do you need to have enough?
I've Had Enough - When you reach peak frustration with clutter it's a good thing as it drives you to make changes
When Is Enough Enough - How do you know when you've done enough decluttering? How do you know when to stop? At what point do you reach the equilibrium of satisfaction and enough

Environmental Hazards
How can you keep yourself safe while decluttering? Even in your own home, decluttering can stir up dust or mould particulates and aggravate asthma. Naturally when you're moving items that have been in place for a long time, you'll disrupt dust!
Learn from Amy's experience of being bitten by a spider and ending up in hospital, to keep yourself physically safe while decluttering. Give consideration to trip hazards, falls risk, insects and pests and do what you can to keep yourself physically safe.
Bit of a Public Service Announcement episode today from the trenches :)

Time Will Tell
If you've got items you'd really LIKE to declutter but you're a bit nervous... why not give a Time Will Tell Box a go.
Pop items you need just a little bit more time to decide on into a box to assess again in a few months. Seal it up and write the date on the box. See what you think in a few months... hopefully once you've experienced living without the items you'll then be ready to donate the items in your Time Will Tell Box.
Before you open the box, try to think what might be in there that you've missed. You might be surprised that you forget what you put in... in which case send it off for donation!
Remember to declutter as much as you can and then only put the items in the time will tell box if you absolutely need to. It's a backstop, not a full stop.
