567 - Responding Responsibly to a “Waste Not, Want Not” Mentality - Part 1

from Clutter Free Academy · host Kathi Lipp

Sometimes we hear sayings like “waste not, want not” and we assume they are true all the time and in every circumstance. Or we may want to get rid of something, but someone else in our life expects us to keep it. What to do then? Today Kathi is discussing this very issue with her friend and co-author, Cheri Gregory. Cheri tells the tale of some big items she has recently decluttered and shares how her mindset about those items has changed over time. Some of those shifts in her thinking include: Realizing that just because an item was nice several decades ago, doesn’t mean it is still nice. Learning to set a time limit on fixing things - just because something could be fixed someday by someone doesn’t mean I have to keep it (broken) forever. There is a cost to keeping things - time dealing with them, lost space to enjoy other things, and missed opportunities. Listen next week to hear Part 2 of the discussion, in which Cheri gives advice for how to start a conversation with someone else who is opposed to our decluttering efforts.
