reduce clutter

I recently read a book that had an interesting idea for getting rid of paper clutter. Write a date at the top of every paper you receive, telling yourself when you can get rid of the paper. This made me think about clutter in my life, and I realized that I have way too much junk. I have started throwing away lots of the clutter in my room in addition to dating all papers with a “shred date”. I don’t want to just get rid of current clutter, I also want to keep out future clutter.
