Kindle Notes & Highlights
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.
I decided to stop assuming I knew what I’d love to already have in the future.
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.
Living now means giving now preferential treatment over the future or even the past.
Accept the limitations of the space you have, and declutter enough that your stuff fits comfortably in that space.
It turned out I liked that feeling of actual happiness better than the feeling I got from assuming things on the bottom of a pile were things that would probably make me happy.
