Understanding the Concept of Decluttering
The key to a successful decluttering is understanding what the whole concept is about. If you get a good grasp of what decluttering really means, then you will have a good idea of what the whole task will demand from you.
If you try to look for the word "declutter" in any dictionary or literature on the English vocabulary, you will not find any meaning or reference to it. Nonetheless, you will often come across the word as you read or browse through the internet, and hear people use it in daily communication. It is used in a similar context as "unclutter", which makes the two terms synonymous to each other.
You can find the word declutter and its definition if you browse through online dictionaries where people are allowed to post definitions of terms commonly used in everyday communication. There, it is defined as an act of simplifying or eliminating mess, disorder, obstacles, etc.
So how about organizing? Does it also mean the same thing?
If you take a look at the meaning of the word "organize", it means putting things together to produce an orderly, intelligently designed and structured whole. Hence, whenever you organize, it entails the act of putting items in place by sorting them (decluttering) and putting things in a place where you can efficiently store them according to their purpose (organizing).
It would be safe to say then that in order to declutter your home and your life effectively, you need to do it in an organized manner and through a smart method. The meaning of organizing is deeply intertwined with the meaning of decluttering. In fact, some use it interchangeably.
Another term, which can be associated to decluttering, is "hoarding" only this time, it falls on the other side of the ring. It is defined in almost all dictionaries as the act of keeping.
