Following my recent reflection post on decluttering, I’ve had an incredibly productive three days. My OCD/ASD-driven attention to detail has allowed me to completely transform the storage unit in the hallway into a functional utility room, complete with dedicated spaces for jackets and shoes for when guests or family visit.
Taking on the challenge of installing a new king-size ottoman bed was no small feat, particularly with the complexities of the hydraulics and gas lift. Despite the initial difficulty, my determination paid off, and I successfully utilised the bed’s storage capacity to declutter the bedroom, creating a much more open and serene space.
Additionally, I reimagined the living room layout to maximise open space and gave the girls’ room a fresh, organised look. These changes have not only enhanced the physical space but have also brought a renewed sense of energy to the entire family.
My message is simple: clutter, both physical and mental, can severely impact productivity. For those of you with OCD/ASD or neurodiverse traits, clutter is more than just an inconvenience, it’s a disruption. I encourage everyone to take control of their environment. Declutter, donate, or sell what you don’t need, and create spaces that allow your mind to thrive. Don’t let clutter hold you back, take action, and you’ll feel the difference.
