My clutter in the workbench area is a decades old collection of items that offer some utility. However, the utility offered is rarely needed.

Items include basketball inflation needles, replacement light bulbs for 30-year-old desk lamp, extra bits for screwdrivers or battery-powered drills, and similar. It is painful to toss such items. I have a trio of fishing tackle divider boxes filled with fasteners of various types, just in case. I have a toolbox of electrical tools.

Some days I just want to start over with a purge into a dumpster. And a $1000 52-inch tool chest.

It is so emotionally hard for me.
