Decluttering? STOP Donating Everything — 8 Things My Japanese Mother Knew

Before you drive those bags to the donation center on Saturday, please wait. Most of what you give away never reaches a shelf. The charity pays to throw it away, and a stranger spends hours sorting the decisions you did not make. In my mother's house, every object left to the right person, or it left as honest trash. Never in between. In this video I give you 8 reasons to know what your things are worth before you let them go, even when the answer is nothing. And the Japanese notebook that will save your children a terrible week. Keep giving the good things. Only stop putting everything through the same door. Small things, done every day. That is the secret. #decluttering #japanesehabits #mottainai
