Nice video. Thanks for posting it.
The audio level on it is really low, at least on my setup. I maximized the volume on my speakers, computer, and the Vimeo player and I could still barely hear your voice. :(

Thanks, Holly! Sorry to hear you had audio trouble. Do you find that to be the case with other videos on Vimeo? When I compare to the White House channel*, for example, mine is a little softer, but that might just be the different sound of my voice compared to the President.

I really like your site and explanation of discardia. It helped!! I have moved so much at one point I had pared my things down to what fit in my car, but somehow over the past 3 years its crept back up again. Thanks for the kickstart on clearing out.

Thanks for this, I think you mentioned it in a core conversation in SxSwi in March and I just now came across the word in my notes. I've written a blog post and linked to your videos, hope you like it.

Helga, somehow I missed this comment when you put it up. Just read your posts on Discardia and enjoyed them! Thank you!

That latter one is an especially nice example of mental discardia.
