5 tips to living clutter free

If you are anything like me, you long to live clutter free. �If you are anything like me though, that is easier said than done. �Between all of the kids stuff, sports gear, work stuff and our every day items, it feels like it is impossible to not have clutter. �I know it�s possible though. �

I have a friend who has just as many kids as me and I have never seen anything on her floors or counters. �I�m not kidding, not one thing.

So how can you do it? �How can you become a clutter free (or at least less cluttered) household? �It can be done, I promise you!

Here are 5 tips to living clutter free that you can implement immediately that will make a huge difference in your life.

Put usefulness above emotion. �Think about the clutter that is filling your home. �Go through items individually and question whether or not it is useful. �You should not have things in your home simply because of an emotional connection. �It is easy to become overwhelmed with items that you get attached to. �Make sure the items that are in your home are useful to improving your life.

Do not strive to �Keep up with the Jones.� �Do not focus your life on material things simply because you feel like everyone else has them. �Do you need 12 bluetooth speakers in your house? �Chances are you do not.The same thing can be true for just about everything.

Don�t be seduced by pretty organizers. �There are some stores out there that are great for storage containers. �I mean who doesn�t want to have gorgeous storage containers from IKEA prettying up their home. �The thing is, just stacking box upon box doesn�t help deal with the clutter issue, it just presents it a little better. �The fact is that you need to get rid of stuff and then organize.

Give you stuff to charity or a family in need. �Do you have way too many blankets overflowing your hall closet? �Take some of them down to the local shelter and donate them to someone in need. �It will feel good knowing that clearing out your clutter is helping someone.

Pretend you are moving. �Let�s do an experiment. �Pretend you had to uproot and move your household. �What would you need to take with you? �What would you prefer you didn�t lug along on the trip. �It�s a good rule of thumb to never clutter your house with items you wouldn�t want to bring to the next place.
