As a long-term strategy, following the Visibility Rule means starting again in the most visible places with each decluttering session. Re-clutterers like me resist this. How will I ever get to the rest of the house if every decluttering session starts with those same visible spaces? When a space I’ve decluttered becomes re-cluttered before I get to the next space, or as I’m working on the next space, it feels like no progress will ever be made and I’ll never get to the spaces where we live our daily lives.
