5 Reasons Your Home and Life Are Cluttered

​Let's face it; clutter affects the way we live. Whether it's at home or the office, it makes it hard to make decisions and to live day by day when you have so much clutter all around. Many people have discovered the joy of living by owning less. Eliminating all the unnecessary stuff will help you and your family focus and will also give you a chance to appreciate what's life is all about. Here are the most  common reasons why your space is cluttered and a few techniques to get your space, and your life, back:

1. You Buy A Lot Of Things You Don’t Need
   Whether you have an obsession for shopping or you want to shop to relieve stress, buying things you don't need will make you accumulate a lot of things that accumulate. In a month, you can have a room full of clothes or a garage full of accessories! 
   
   By just cutting down on shopping or addressing your stress using other techniques can help remove clutter. Sell or donate stuff you don't need to get your money back, or at least a portion of it. 
   
   
2. You Don’t Have A To Do List
   Have you ever noticed that you tend to overspend when you forget your shopping list? And you usually end up with so many things to do in a day when you don’t follow a to-do list? So to avoid this, create your shopping list before you head off to the store AND place this inside your bag. Make your to-do list ahead of time as well so you won’t end up overwhelming yourself or forgetting anything as well. 
   
   
3. You Don’t Throw Away Anything
   People who are afraid to throw anything valuable will never see a clean home! Of course, you need to save reusable containers, bottles, and plastic but as much as possible just place these in designated trash bins.  
   
   If you're the sentimental type, then it's going to be harder to throw away anything. But you can still do this if you take it one day at a time.
   
   
4. You Don’t Delegate
   Another reason why you tend to have a lot of things to do is you don’t trust people enough to do tasks for you. Admit you can’t do everything. Assign competent people or people you trust and set deadlines. 
   
   
5. You Believe In Regret
   Usually, people who don't throw anything believe that they'll regret this later. If you're one of these people, then you may find it hard to change your mindset. Start small; start one room at a time. If you need a day to go over a room or a cabinet, take your time. But make sure to remove as much stuff you don't need.
