Hey all, time to get posting.
Do you guys journal your belongings? I noticed it helps me get rid of clutter-anxiety by sometimes journaling my stuff.
I simply write bunch of categories such as ‘clothes’ and then list how many pants I have, or shoes, and so on.
No but I occasionally make lists of things to let go. I tend to keep things I perceive to have value even though keeping them causes more anxiety or stress than the worth. Not clothes so much but physical items.
I moved about 1.5 years ago and have been donating/giving away things since then. It is refreshing to get rid of things.
Agreed! My minimalism journey also started with moving, you really notice how much stuff you have and how much anxiety it might induce.
I like the idea of the things-to-let-go list. My journaling also leads to getting rid of stuff very often, although recently there hasn’t exactly been a lot of stuff I can throw away anymore. Damn it - decluttering was fun while it lasted.
I’ve long thought I should record all my books, and figure out which ones I will probably never read and sell them. Could probably clear out a shelf or two.
