This isn’t yet another stereotypical book about de-cluttering your life. I’m not going to make bold, unrealistic statements about how you can turn your home into a streamlined, simplified and efficient haven and I certainly won’t promise that you can achieve it all overnight. No, this book is about being realistic. It’s about proposing a practical way of de-cluttering that is easy to get into, flexible enough to suit your lifestyle and – most importantly – sustainable.

I get regular emails about people struggling to get on top of their junk, and I witness on a daily basis people wasting energy, time and money because their homes aren’t organized and streamlined. If you are a regular reader of my blog, Organize IT, you will no doubt have read about some of the concepts detailed in this book before. In it I will take those concepts, expand on them and cover whole new areas as I resolve some of the questions and issues people have. Whether you are taking the first tentative steps in tackling your clutter or you have been struggling to deal with it for years and want to find a consistently effective approach, this book is for you.
