A few weeks ago I finished reading the book It’s All Too Much  –here is the post about the book.

If you want a good book to get you jacked up about spring cleaning – this is it.

My summary

-you can only keep as much stuff as you have room for

-steamline -if you haven’t used it in 1 year – get rid of it

-stuff is just stuff

-you can’t let your stuff run your life

-don’t let the things you own end up owning you

-don’t let flat places be a dumping ground for your stuff

-you can remember without saving everything – our memories are not based on material things

-when you buy something new get rid of something you don’t need

-your extra stuff that’s just taking up space might be a blessing to someone who needs it – give it away

I haven’t had a chance to really do all the things I read – getting organized takes time – I am planning to take a few days off from everything else in April and put what I read into reality.
