Decluttering at the Speed of Life: Winning Your Never-Ending Battle with Stuff

by Dana K. White

I’ve consciously decided to view my home as a place to live instead of a place to store all my great ideas and their attached stuff.

I define clutter as anything I can’t keep under control. If a space in my home consistently gets out of control, I have too much stuff in that space. I have clutter.

But I’ve accepted that while Decluttering Regret (the realization that I need something after I declutter it) isn’t fun, I’ve survived every time. And

Living for now became my new goal: living in the house we have, in the city where we are, and in the moment when we’re alive.
