You're the boss of clutter, not the other way around.

Declutter. Organize. Live.

When you are filled with inner clutter, the chaos reflects in your personality as obsessiveness, confusion, disorganisation, broken speech patterns, insomnia, indecisiveness, and lack of direction. When your home and world are in disrray, you can't relax. It takes more energy to be in chaos because you have to keep track of all the junk. Eventually exhaustion sets in. When you honestly look at clutter and ask if it's necessary in your life, buried emotions come to the surface.... Toss what's unnecessary so that you can finally relax, and your remaining possessions will have a clear place to land.

Clearing out your clutter can be cathartic, and it's the first step in organizing your home. Seeing the tops of your counters, desks, and floors of your closets clear will give you a great sense of accomplishment. And getting rid of all types of 'stuff' actually frees up space so that you can do that whole-house deep cleaning to start the spring.

We've got to break through the clutter just like everyone else, and this is a great way to do that.

Clutter is my natural habitat.
