Need to Focus!

For starters I am on here when I should be packing ( we move into a smaller house in a few days & really have to get rid of a lot more stuff). The house is in chaos. I am trying to do one room at a time. DH being very calming & at the mo DD is helping too, although I’m looking forward to a clear day when she will be with DM & DF.
Any tips to cope with feeling overwhelmed?

Hi Tigercub- didn't want to read and run. Great chance to clear out some crap! I'd suggest 'chunking' - I struggle to focus and a good way I found is to do it in chunks so say - right for the next 30mins I am going to do this room. After 30 mins I can have a cup of tea and biscuit etc. Then it's easier to force action when you know it's just 30 min.
Is it the Marie Kondo thing - keep what gives you joy, or is practical. I need to do this too, loads of decluttering required!
Good luck.
