Is your home overflowing with stuff? Are you so disorganized you can’t even remember what you own, and spend hours looking for things you’ve lost?
No, I didn’t stalk you, or come over and see your house. But I know exactly what it’s like because I’ve been there.
For some reason or another, our homes are places we “collect” things and our garages are places we “store” useless stuff instead of more expensive possessions – our cars!
According to authors Warren and Betsey Talbot, it’s an epidemic – one that can easily be fixed if you’re willing to take simple, but effective action.

About the authors:
Warren and Betsy Talbot spent 2 years perfecting the decluttering process as they prepared for the trip of a lifetime. They learned to manage meltdowns, freakouts, and saying goodbye to enough stuff to give them the freedom to travel full time. In the process, they made enough money for a trip to Antarctica. - Source
