How to get rid of clutter
How I did it: I started with one room at a time. I am not a pack-rat. I have no problem throwing things out!. If I haven't used or wore something in over a year it gets thrown out or given to charity. Paperwork and documents can be scanned. That's on my goal list. For now, anything that needs to be scanned is in a bin next to the printer. Everthing else is trash or charity.
Lessons & tips: Give it away or throw it away. Senseless clutter is ridiculous. Things of sentimental value needs to be on display. If it's stored in a garage or attic, how sentimental is it really? If you clear unnecessary clutter you will have room for what really matters.
Resources: Rubbermade plastic storage bins are great for things you really can't part with. Label the contents and date if necessary.
