Use What You Already Have to Declutter FAST!

Do you find yourself running to the store before taking the time to use what you already have?

One of the biggest steps of the decluttering process (for any area) is to sort and categorize our things so we know what we are working with and how to properly contain and store our items.

A big bonus to this is that we discover how much of each item we have, can create an inventory list and then make mindful decisions to use up this inventory.

Knowing what we have (and where we store it) has amazing positive impacts on how we utilize our spaces, but more importantly, creates immediate direct benefits by helping us:

• Save money (by eliminating duplicate items and waste)
• Limit what is put in the landfill (by consuming/using what we have before it becomes waste)
• Add time to our day (by not having to search for things we can’t find)
• Minimize stress and anxiety (by knowing what we have and being able to easily find items when needed)
• Feel empowered and in control of our things
• Be Happier!

“Use What We Already Have” is a simple mantra for us to focus on using and consuming the inventory we have BEFORE we purchase more.

This can be a bit challenging at times though, especially if our things aren’t particularly organized AND when we are marketed and sold to ALL THE TIME.

When we remind ourselves to quickly check our inventory and then continue to be conscious to use what we have FIRST, it will help us create a healthy habit for ourselves.

Consuming less = less clutter = less stress!

Being mindful about this is a process and by gently reminding ourselves to use what we already have BEFORE we make another purchase will help empower us to create a less cluttered life.

Take action today and create an inventory list for your home and/or office and enjoy the benefits that will shortly come!

You got this!

Much support n’ love to you! 💙
