After 20 years of organizing, here’s something I know is true:
It’s much easier to appreciate your belongings when you have fewer items. For example, if you inherited your grandmother’s tea cup collection, select a favorite and put it where you can see it. Then you can treasure it. That’s much better than letting the whole collection sit in a box in the basement.
If space is at a premium for you, try picking out the most special item in a collection and give away the rest. When you keep less stuff, it’s easier to love what you have.
