Looking for things to do on a rainy January evening? Try tapping the therapeutic power of decluttering, using these top tips from Pinterest.
1 - Use the 5 Second Rule
It’s amazing how easy it is to procrastinate when you’re clearing out your stuff. But overthinking is an enemy you want to avoid. Marie Kondo’s concept of “sparking joy” is one way to do this: you hold something and know immediately on gut feeling whether it’s worth keeping or not. The 5 Second Rule explained below is another clever trick to bypass dithering. If you can’t remember when you last used something in the space of five seconds, it’s time to get rid of it. You could also set yourself strict time limits for decluttering each area to help drive forward the decision-making process.While ultimately you want to declutter by category , there are some golden rules that you can refer to on all “to keep or not to keep” decisions.
