messy processy

My desks are buried below the plants and electronics

Every once in a while, I’ll take everything out of the drawers and bins to see what I have. Getting to view it all out in the open gives me the ability to process it all. What do I want to keep and what can I get ride of? It’s both cathartic and stressful because I have to come to teams with my stuff. Since I am decently sentimental and was raised partially by depression era grandparents, I will keep a random bolt and note from my kids around for safe keeping. Over time, this sentimentality piles up and overwhelms me. That’s where I am at…some stress, but the mess is purposeful. The goal is less mental weight and more mental freedom.
