It's All Clutter #30: Are You Paralyzed by Too Many Choices?

Jes examines the paradox of choice, and how it relates to dealing with our clutter.

We may think that having choices means having the freedom and more independence in decision-making. However, the reality is that having too many choices is overwhelming and can lead to feeling paralyzed by the act of decision-making. It's called decision-making fatigue.

The result is it becomes way more difficult to make bigger decisions, such as tackling the clutter in our home. How can we make really big decisions when we're zapping our decision-making energy on multiple small decisions every day?! Think about how many times in your day you're overwhelmed by what to wear, what to eat, and which shampoo to buy.

When we reduce the number of choices we have to make in our daily lives, it's empowering. We get time and energy back.

Jes shares some great tips on how you can start to reduce the choices you have to make every single day so that you can focus on the bigger decisions that will have more impact on your life.

Jessica Marcy

I have always been impacted by my physical surroundings. Growing up I spent a lot of time reorganizing my room, moving my furniture around, redecorating, and trying to help contain the stuff in our lives. For me, there is no better feeling than being in a freshly reenergized space. Having a home that feels perfect for you adds a tremendous amount of value to our lives.

In the past two decades, my personal and professional lives have taken many different forms, but my childhood interests in decluttering, organizing, physical spaces, and systems have remained the common threads. I considered Professional Organizing as a career at every twist and turn along the way, but always chose a parallel route - a Master's in Archival Science, a pop-up children's consignment sale business, fund-raising, communications and event planning, food blogging, homesteading, and raising a family are just some of the fun adventures I've had.

Eventually, my "hobby" of helping everyone I know declutter, organize, arrange and decorate their space was clearly more than a hobby and it was the exact right time to jump fully into the Professional Organizing world. When I did, I brought a slew of complementary skills and lessons from my previous ventures, jobs, successes, and failures.

I currently work with clients virtually, in workshops, in online group settings, over the phone, and in their homes and offices. I refer to my style of Professional Organizing "Prioritize Your Sanity" because that is always the goal of this work we do together. When your space supports your life, you are free to focus on what really matters.

My work today brings together everything that I've learned over the years plus it enables me to work directly with people and see such dramatic transformations in their lives. Every day I feel inspired by my clients.

Decluttering and organizing is not simply throwing out your possessions, or sorting them into clear bins with beautiful labels. It's figuring out how you can create an environment that supports you and your family every day. It's about honoring your past, dreaming of your future, and creating space to live in the moment. It's a beautiful journey, and I would love the opportunity to support you along the way.
