Excuses

Here are more excuses for not decluttering, borrowed from Don Aslett's book, Clutter Free:

1.  "It was here when I moved in."

2.  "I'll use it for a spare."

3.  "I'm saving it for the kids."

4.  "I'm going to finish it someday."

5.  "I'm going to covert this into __________" (i.e. a planter or picture frame)

6.  "It may come back in style."

7.  "I'm going to wear it __________(to paint/work in the yard.)"

If you want your life simplified and stress reduced, don't fall prey to these excuses for holding onto stuff.
