Common Decluttering Mistakes

1. Buying More Stuff to Fix the Problem

Decluttering is not a solution, but a perpetual problem. Don't get caught in the cycle.

2. Throwing Away Memories and Sentimental Items

Don't confuse nostalgia with clutter. Some things are worth holding onto, like that one weird cousin's birthday card from 1998.

3. Not Decluttering Enough

Under-decluttering is just as bad as over-decluttering. Find the balance, or you'll never find the perfect spot for that one weird figurine from 1998.
