Oh my, how I needed this book!  I knew a lot about clutter, but dealing with it was a bit overwhelming.  This book guided me through getting things in the right place, not only physically but mentally.Seems clutter has the ability to make you tired just by looking at it and realizing how much effort it is going to take to clean it up.  Once the clutter is gone, you gain energy and feel much better about yourself.The many benefits of taking care of your clutter are explained in a simple, clear way.One of the hardest parts for me was not keeping things based on emotional attachment.You can even make money selling the items that you do not “need”.On to choosing a decluttering style.  There are several laid out for you to choose from.Declutterring your office and your closet is described step by step.  Seem silly at times, but I actually needed this push for separation of business and home. I'm still working on tackling the garage!The three most common ways to get rid of the items causing the clutter are discussed.Once the clutter is gone, it is an amazing feeling at how much open space you can enjoy with your family and friends.I suppose the hardest part to follow is keeping the home in the “new” state, but many suggestions are given as to how to maintain the state you have achieved.When you think of decluttering, do you include your computer and your mind?
