I was recently browsing through a decluttering thread on Facebook. This is just one of the many ways I keep up with the psychology of clutter and the many challenges folks face with getting rid of it.

Someone posted that she has been 'slowly but surely' digging through her clutter built up over the past 20 years. I was happy for her...she was progressing.

Then somebody came along and commented, 'Geez. What is taking you so long?! Just rip if off like a bandaid. Get a trashbag, get rid of it, and move on with your life. This is not rocket science.'

I thought to myself, 'Wow. This person clearly doesn't understand that what comes so easy for some is extremely challenging for others. And the manner in which he addressed her was very coarse.'

My response to the original woman's post, 'You are doing amazing. Just keep going at your own pace and know there are many of us out here cheering you on. As long as you're progressing each day, you're on the right track. Don't allow yourself to be discouraged by anyone who tells you otherwise. Just keep moving and congratulations on every success to date.'

In this age of social media (even off of social media), you may come across folks who think they know everything about every topic under the sun...and who may also feel that it's perfectly fine to speak in an unkind manner that puts someone else down.

Don't allow these comments to get you down and don't waste your time arguing. Instead, seek out those who lift you up and encourage you to keep succeeding in your own way and time. Go at your own pace. Celebrate every success. Leave the negative comments behind, while you keep moving forward and progressing.
