It’s not uncommon to hear the following statement:
“I am so worried about what people may think of me once they find out what’s behind my closed doors.”
I reassure them that no matter what I may find behind their closed doors that it’s not for me to “judge.”
My purpose is to help them get back on track and improve the quality of their life.
However, depending upon what is behind their closed doors, determines the course of action necessary to facilitate this process.
Usually what prevents people from “opening their doors” is the fear of thinking they will be “found out.” Since there is a lot of shame and guilt accompanying clutter, one tends to feel isolated and alone.
Yet, interestingly enough, when one does reach out for “help” they are looking for assistance from someone who can understand their pain because they recognize that moving past the clutter and getting organized is so much more than just putting things away.
Most people are looking for a structured plan that will encompass the tangible, linear application as well as the emotional empowerment aspect. Therefore, an organic process can take place which will allow a person to “let go” without compromising their belief system.
It’s important to stress that although it may appear one door is being closed, the reality is that another door is opening full of simplicity.
