[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It has stuck for me, in that I bring a lot less stuff into the house than I used to and am less tied to keeping things for the “just in case”. My house isn’t perfect, but it’s manageable. I also use her folding methods, which are great for helping you see what you have. [/quote]

Just in case is my nemesis.

How did you break that habit?[/quote]

Not PP, but the "keep only those things that spark joy" helped me break the "just in case" habit. Like I kept an extra comforter around just in case, but realized that I didn't love it. If I thought I really needed an extra comforter, why not look for one that really makes me happy every time I look at it? Then when I see it taking up space in my closet, I don't get irritated by the lack of space, but feel happy to see it.[/quote]

But then you get the flu and are shivering and wish you had an extra blanket and all you have is an empty space in your closet...or maybe you took advantage of the empty space and now have 4 new pillows there for guests.  what sparks joy today and in a month could be different.  [/quote]
