Way back when I started my blog I defined “stuff,” and said that I would be posting more definitions. So here’s another definition…
“Gather”
“Gather” is the first of my 5 steps in organizing -- getting everything together so that you can see all that you are working with. For example, if you are organizing a closet, you get all the clothes, shoes, accessories, etc. from other places. This is the only way to know exactly how much space you are going to need.
Gathering is usually a messy process. More than likely there is going to be a lot of stuff just strewn about. It is important to allow this mess to happen. If you try to sort, categorize, and distribute as you gather, it becomes overwhelming. Breaking down the organizing task into manageable steps allows the process to be done quicker.
