When packing, I try my best to rid myself of nostalgia attached to the items I uncover from my room. I make use of the leanest guidelines you’ve ever seen for treatment of the items:
First I ask myself if I’m going to use it or need it any time in the future at all. Yes for stuff like my books and notes and No for stuff like under-sized or over-sized clothing and kiddish toys. Next I ask myself if there’s anyone I’ve in mind who would need or want the stuff I don’t. If yes, I’ll set it aside to be given away or else I’d dispose them.
Utilitarianism is good for packing stuff.
