061: 5 Steps to Staying Motivated when Decluttering Gets Hard

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.

Lights Out

Fossil fuels power our modern lives, and yet fossil fuels are also powering global warming. Because many of us lack the self-sufficient skills necessary to survive an extended power outage event, we are one thing and one thing only: vulnerable.

We have become over-reliant on the very thing that's destroying our planet. On today's show: Imagining the ways in which modern life, interpersonal connections, well-being and more would change in a hypothetical, fossil fuel-free world.

 

Here's a preview:

[6:00] We are so reliant on electricity that we are incapacitated without it. This is a problem!

[11:00] In the event of a 2-weeks plus outage, modernity would look a lot different

[24:00] Is minimalism late stage capitalism personified?

[28:00] Without fossil fuels, we'd be circular

[30:00] What research says with regard to the wellness benefits of working with our hands
