To be honest, I don’t want too much choice.
I mean, I want choice. I want about 3-6 choices, and that’s it. I don’t want to be shown 50 different things, because there are a couple things that could go wrong:
- I end up liking all 50 and now have to go through and rank them until I pick the top choice
- I get confused and end up not wanting anything at all
So how does this play into decluttering my life?
Simple. I cleaned out about 50% – 60% of my closet just so I’d only have my favourite things left. My favourite purses, jackets, dresses, necklaces.. you name it.
With all the choice I had before, I actually felt guilty for not wearing a necklace I liked but didn’t love.
I felt guilty for not having worn that pair of pants I got altered for $10 for one presentation.
That kind of guilt, weighs on you.
And now that I don’t have those things there to remind me to feel guilty, I don’t.
I just love what I have and for whatever I choose to wear or use, I’m happy with instead of being guilted into it.
(Who knew a necklace could guilt you into wearing it?)
