There was a very simple rule I learned from my uncle along the way. Whenever he brings one new non-essential item into his home he gets rid of two non-essential items.

At this time of year so many people make New Year’s Resolutions to get healthy by eating better and in my experience this lends to becoming more organized too! There are several ways to go about this but I’ll share the opposite ends of the spectrum for your “food for thought”.

Moving can be chaotic and stressful and even more so if you don’t pack efficiently. I’ve moved over 30 times myself so I know a thing or two about how to do this!

So now you have cleaned out purses and wallets but how do you store them when you’re not using them? There are so many options depending on the space you have!

Recently, I listened to a podcast and have been so frustrated by the advice they’re giving people. Here’s how I take care of paper clutter instead.

I do use airtight food containers because I like how they look in my pantry but I always caution people about the extra considerations they should make before purchasing them for their home.

Just because you put something on the calendar, doesn’t mean you have to do it right then. The same goes for a to-do on the task manager. You don’t actually have to do the task.

My best advice is to donate somewhere that makes YOU feel good about your donation but is also convenient to you. What’s the point of decluttering your rooms if you’re going to clutter another space by not taking your donations right away?

You too can sell items you no longer want or need but don’t want to trash, recycle or donate.

How many times have you come home from vacation and been utterly exhausted when you return to work the next day? Shouldn’t you feel rejuvenated instead?
