Dale Holmes begins his book in a logical way. He first describes why we end up with cluttered homes in the first place. Apparently our fear of an uncertain future causes us to hoard and buy extra things in case of emergency. Some people keep everything and have great difficulty getting rid of stuff that is no longer useful or needed. Dale Holmes deals with the psychological reasons we also buy too much. He presents a more disciplined approach and makes organizing seem so easy. He also gives a lot of ideas for increasing the storage capacity of your home. While this is not the only book I'd recommend on this subject it does cover all the basics. Just be willing to start donating things to charity if you are serious about clearing up the clutter. I take a bag of stuff to Goodwill at least once a month and it does help.~The Rebecca Review
