"I feel it will deeply improve my current home environment"

I am very excited to now have the time to put into action a lot of what I learned in this course. I feel it will deeply improve my current home environment. The reason it hasn't happened more quickly is that my partner is an avid "hoarder" and is fearful of parting with items. This is extremely frustrating for me although I realize it is an emotional addiction. Having already worked on my office, there is a noticeable and positive difference that he realizes is much more positive. My next steps are to move from room to room and strongly encourage massive de cluttering. It may get to the point where I will need to list the house in order to purge enough. But one step at a time...:)
