How do you all decide what to keep or toss when decluttering?

My room feels crowded with stuff. I want to clean it, but I get stuck choosing what to keep. What simple rules help you decide fast? I have about an hour after school each day. I work full-time and squeeze this in around dinner and bedtime. Small wins are fine; I just want something that actually helps. I'm in a small town, so options are limited and shipping can be slow. This has been on my mind for a while and I'd love some real-world experiences. I've already tried a couple of the obvious things, but the results were mixed.

Set hard limits per category using containers you already own. If a category does not fit, remove items until it does. Make a dated quarantine box for maybes for 30 days and purge it if untouched. No buying organizers and repurpose grocery boxes and jars.
