Synopsis

If you look at the available books about clutter you’ll find a plethora of different approaches, from Marie Kondo’s question ‘does it spark joy?’ through all manner of psychological reasons, Feng Shui all the way to displacement activity. Every approach related to removing items from an overfull home seems to be covered.This book is looking at a totally different angle: not so much what comes from within, but what is imposed upon us from the outside. While I strongly believe that internal forces drive our reluctance to let go, I am convinced that the external influences play an important part in making us accumulate things in the first place. We often consider decluttering in terms of removing the superfluous from our surroundings. Whatever reasons you come up with to keep yourself from shedding some of the load, none of them are easy to overcome. So why not look at the reasons that make you accumulate more and limit your intake to begin with? Why don’t you simply stop it at the source rather than dealing with the consequences? That is exactly the approach taken in “Promise Broken. Moving On.” as it looks at the link between advertising, consumerism and the accumulation of things we possess and fill our homes with. It holds up a mirror and shows you how exactly this affects YOU. Ask yourself – and be brutally honest – are you like a moth to the light, or are you able to resist and fly the other way?
