I have a tendency to get things and start projects and then just leave them alone. That is probably my biggest downfall. I have all this awesome stuff and it ends up in a pile or a box. I also have an issue with clothes. I have so many...hanging in my closets, in dressers, and in overflow bins. Going though this book gave me the motivation and direction. The purpose, or so I got was that I was not trying to just get rid of as much stuff as possible but to keep things that meant something or that would be used, things that would make me happy. It takes you the missions of getting rid of things that are alike and not room by room. So I was not going from room to room putting things where they need to be just to go through that same stuff once I got to that room.
It did take me a good week to go through the most of my house, I did the main rooms first, but still have a laundry room of stuff to finish up and a 2nd bathroom. I will continue to the same process as I started and keep it up since I have been able to get rid of a bunch of stuff I no longer felt I needed.
My house overall seems less cluttered and more put together, which is something I have wanted.
You can grab your own copy of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up over on Amazon.
