🧠 Your brain isn’t lazy. It’s protective.
Your brain’s #1 job is to keep you alive and that means keeping things the same.
That’s what status quo really means:
👉 the current scenario you already know you can survive.
So when your brain says:
“Just shove those old clothes back in the drawer…”
it’s not being dramatic.
It’s thinking, “We lived through this yesterday. Let’s not risk it.”
Here’s the funny part 👇
Your brain genuinely believes that doing something new like decluttering, changing habits, or making a decision might cause so much stress it could be dangerous.
Of course, we know sorting clothes isn’t life or death.
But sometimes… we act like it is.
That’s why change can feel so hard even when it’s something you actually want.
