You will find all aspects of Downsizing and Decluttering covered by Belinda in this podcast, "Declutter Challenge 4 : The Doing and Resources - Decluttering Action Plan" including Q&A asked by seniors in a friendly, relaxed environment, your home!

Declutter Challenge Recap

* Make the Decision
* Set Aside Time and Ask for Support
* Rostering and Rewards

What is the 5-Step Decluttering Action Plan?
This 5-step decluttering action plan is to make sure that all of these actions are going into manageable chunks which is easy to tick off.

* Label 5 boxes (Keep, Toss, Sell or Charity Donation, Fix or Return to Owner, Gift to Family or a Friend). Have these ready for Step 2.
* Remove all items from the area or room (where possible)
* Box items that are not needed
* Redistributing
* Assess the room

To ensure that the 5-step decluttering action plan will really work, I want you to question every single item, "How much do I love you?"
