061: 5 Steps to Staying Motivated when Decluttering Gets Hard

Don't lose steam! 5 steps to staying motivated during decluttering.

 

It happens to all of us.

We embark on a decluttering endeavor – a whole house purge, even – only to lose steam halfway through.

Indeed, it’s as if the motivation to finish vanishes into thin air.

We’re enticed by benefits of a minimalist home, including less stress, more free time + fewer items to clean. The problem is, though, that the act of decluttering induces stress, sucks up free time + requires hours of work.

On this week’s episode, Melissa Russell offers 5 practical steps for staying motivated when decluttering gets hard so that you, too, can reap the benefits of tidy simplicity.
