Are you familiar with the "one in, one out" decluttering method? I am a big fan of decluttering - you might even say I’m a bit obsessive. It's a simple way of keeping the amount of things you own under control. Every time you bring something new into your house, swap it for something you …
Progress over Perfection
Holding yourself to an unrealistic standard will keep you from growing and it's exhausting! Call it what you want - perfectionism, analysis paralysis, whatever.
