I'm doing full disclosure here. This is my home office and it's out of control. Yikes! One of the big things I read in several of these books is the need to pare down and reduce clutter.
From Sarah Susanka: "Our lives have lots of leftover piles and patterns..., and in order to implement the blueprint for your own Not So Big Life these must also be identified and dispatched. There's an amazing amount of wasted space and time in our lives, which, when cleaned out, reveals a lot more room to work with for our life remodeling."
From Karen Kingston: "The word 'clutter' derives from the Middle English word 'clotter,' which means to coagulate -- and that's about as stuck as you can get. Clutter accumulates when energy stagnates and, likewise, energy stagnates when clutter accumulates. So the clutter begins as a symptom of what is happening with you in your life and then becomes part of the problem itself because the more of it you have, the more stagnant energy it attracts to itself."
I have a serious problem here. Hard to work when I can't find the keyboard. Today I will tackle one corner of the office and see what happens.
