Clear Your Clutter With Feng Shui

5 stars (Very Motivating!) - This is the best book ever about clutter! It gets you excited and motivated. You can't wait to clear out your life of clutter! I have shared it with several friends and family. Kingston is the best! 5 stars (The only book you'll need about space clearing) - I'm not one into "new age psychobabble" but Karen Kingston's advice in this book did alot for me ... and the dividends continue paying off to this day. I read this book at a down time in my life and, indeed, I never realized why I was holding onto old letters, graduation caps and gowns from schools that held nothing but bad memories for me, and magazines from nearly 10 years prior. I admit that I'm not as bad as other people but I cluttered up the little space that I had and I felt it. Once I started questioning why I was keeping stuff, I had the strength to let it go and not feel bad about it. I haven't looked back since. After re-reading this book, it strengthened my resolve to keep clutter out of my life as best I can. Her reasoning is based on common sense, really, not "real" Feng Shui: If your friends do nothing but drag you down, time to move on. If those letters from an old flame hold nothing but bad memories, what's the point in torturing yourself by keeping them? If you haven't worn that outfit yet, what makes you think you'll wear it sometime this year (even though you've been promising yourself you're going to lose weight to get back into those jeans for years)? Karen also gives advice on how to reduce the chance of re-introducing clutter into your life by questioning the purpose of every single piece of paper you have. Through reading her book, I have become conscientious of clearing out every so often and I find myself, indeed, questioning every paper that I intend to keep (and many papers hit the recycle bin because of that!). Same thing for clothes: If they don't fit, bundle them up and give them to people who can use them. Her book also enabled me to let ...

Sink Reflections- Overwhelmed- Disorganized- Living in Chaos- The FlyLady-s Simple FLYing Lessons Wi

5 stars (Sink Reflections Reinforces the Website) - I am a big FlyLady fan and I subscribe to the website. I find the website really motivates me because of all those daily e-mails. The book is handy when you don't have time to get on the web and also if you like things in printed form like I do. Those emails can be overwhelming sometimes and that's when I turn to the book. The system is fabulous--baby steps towards getting your home and your life organized. The book is a condensed version of the website. You can really get all you need from the site, so if you are an avid internet user, you really don't need the book. I like it anyway. 5 stars (FlyLady Gave Me a PEACEFUL Home!) - I suppose I don't fall into the sterotypical FlyBaby category. My husband & I don't have any children. I spend most of my week in the office, shuttling from one meeting to the next. I am not a stay at home wife or mother. Yet, although FlyLady's tips and routines may seem obvious to some, they weren't obvious to ME. I am not depressed. I am a very confident, intellegent, successful professional. But when it came to my home, it was totally out of control. And I kept falling into the trap of thinking that the CHAOS of our home must be due to some complex, time management problem. I've never been much of a pack-rat, neither has my husband. So, the amount of clutter in our home was minimal (though there was SOME...especially in our attic, laundry room and garage). Our problem has always been trying to find a way to keep up w/ the daily chores of life. My husband & I both spend our mornings & evenings fighting grid-lock traffic in the city. We spend the majority of day running from meeting to meeting in our respective careers. We get home at night, exhausted most of the time. Nobody wants to cook. Nobody wants to clean. Nobody wants to pick up and put stuff away, or throw out the stuff we don't need. Then the weekend rolls around & we're playing "catch up." No time for us or our ma...
