Too much stuff in too limited a space?
Too many things to do and not enough time to do them in?
A crammed closet, drawer, or shelf?
Here are some simple definitions from experts in the field of organizing:
Joshua Fields Millburn, Minimalist…”Anything that does not ‘add value’ to my life.”
Julie Morgenstern, internationally renowned organizing and time management expert, best-selling author, consultant and speaker…”Clutter doesn’t have to be made of stuff. It can be any obsolete object, space, commitment, or behavior that weighs you down or distracts you or saps your energy.”
Marie Kondo, best selling author of The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up and Spark Joy, “Clutter = things that do not spark joy in my home or life.”
Peter Walsh, Australian-American professional organizer, writer, and media personality – “Clutter is anything that interferes with the life you could be living.”
Select the definition of clutter that resonates with you and then use that as a motivational jumping off point – reducing and removing the things that fit the definition.
