Declutter Your World with Just One Question

Is your Home Cluttered?

You look around your house and feel overwhelmed by clutter and junk.You want an clean and organized home so you ask yourself what you want to get rid of, but you have a hard time parting with anything.

Well, I think it all starts with what we say to ourselves, and many of us are asking ourselves the wrong question.

Every time I held up an item and asked, “Do you want to get rid of this?” one (or more!) of my kids would freak out, say they couldn’t possibly part with it.

Ask the Question

Stop and Question it
