When downsizing for a move to a new home, it's important to dream about what you'd like your life to be like after the move. Do you plan to travel, spend time visiting family, or stay at home more? Would you like to spend less time cleaning and more time doing hobbies? Will you host large groups or small groups?

As you dream, consider what you need to make these dreams a reality. For example, if I want to spend less time cleaning, perhaps I cut back on my knickknack collection and find an enclosed cabinet to keep my pared down favorites dust free. If I usually visit my family because of the grandchildren's needs, then maybe I can take a smaller set of dishes to my new home and simply use decorative paper plates on the occasional holiday when we gather at my new home.
