Is your stuff too big and your space too small?

You know the advantages that downsizing offers, but how will everything fit into a smaller home? In a totally "rational" world you could start from scratch. You find your dream low-maintenance home, furnish it with new things that fit perfectly, and vow to quit accumulating things. But life always involves emotions, and downsizing will call for some difficult decisions.

A smaller place means that some things have to go. If you end up with the smaller place and your possessions end up in a storage facility, your attempts to simplify will have been thwarted. Just knowing how to start the process may leave you feeling defeated. If there is any degree of connection to your possessions, it becomes harder. The memories associated with certain possessions can make it feel like a part of you is being discarded. On the other hand, you may be faced with years of accumulation—much of it really not worth saving. But since you’ve never gone through a purging process, you have no idea what’s there and it feels completely out of hand. Imagine the sense of relief you would feel if you knew what was in those boxes and you could access the items you really needed.

So what is preventing that from happening? If you are like most people, one word describes the task you are facing—overwhelming. There is just too much to go through. And even if you did start plowing through it all, you know yourself—on your own you won’t get rid of as much as you really need to.

With the assistance of the right professional organizer, you can make those hard decisions now and it will pay huge rewards in the long run. It is possible to reduce the control that accumulation and clutter have in your life. You can be confident in the reasons you have for keeping what you do. And when you are settled in your new home, everything can be stored in such a way that you will know where things are and will be able to access them as needed.
