Quotes
Clutter is not just the stuff on your floor- it’s anything that stands between you and the life you want to be living.
Today is the day you rid yourself of anything that distracts you from your best life.
Have nothing in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.
Putting things away creates the illusion that the clutter problem has been solved. But sooner or later, all the storage units are full, and the room once again overflows with things.
Pick it up, don’t pass it up; and don’t put it down unless you put it away.
The first step in crafting the life you want is to get rid of everything you don’t.
In the never-ending battle between order and chaos, clutter sides with chaos every time. Anything that you possess that does not add to your life or your happiness eventually becomes a burden.
If someone doesn’t live with you, neither should their stuff.
Your home is a living space, not a storage space.
Clutter is nothing more than postponed decisions.
Time spent minimizing possessions is never wasted.
Some things cost way more when we keep them.
Owning less is better than organizing more.
