I have been reading a lot of books about how to organize and how to clean this year. My takeway from this book is that minimalism is always a journey, not a destination.Certainly I have found it so.The days when I can throw a box of books and my sports shoes in the trunk of my car and move to a new apartment are decades gone. My first downsize was from a three-bedroom apartment and an office to one-bedroom and no office.Even after giving away a garage full of stuff, my apartment had narrow rows between the boxes at first.Now, eight years later, I'm re-organizing and simplifying. I am doing my best to learn new tricks. I heave a sigh of relief every time I give away or throw away another box of stuff I am not using.I recommend this whether you are just getting started with organizing or simplifying or need some maintenance motivation along the way.
