 Looking at all your possessions and asking yourself whether you can live without it permanently [bin/rehome] or temporarily [earmark for storage] or must keep handy is quite exhausting.

The amount of stuff we accumulate with the intention of using it "one day" is frightening.

[On an unrelated note, 'earmark' is an odd word.] 
 @2307797a Things are accumulating like crazy, indeed!

Questions "Can I live without it?" and "Do I want to throw it away?" are always difficult for me (so many thoughts, threads, and uses) - interestingly, at the same time, the question "Would I buy it today?" usually has a very clear answer: no.
Brains are weird ;)

Fingers crossed for your purging adventure!
