“I define clutter as anything I can’t keep under control. If a space in my home consistently gets out of control, I have too much stuff in that space. I have clutter.“ (Page 17 of 219)

Decluttering Question #1: If I Needed This Item, Where Would I Look for It First?

Decluttering Question #2: If I Needed This Item, Would It Ever Occur to Me That I Already Had One?

Step 5.2: Purge Down to the Limits of the Container

This is the author's personal journey - a before and after book with some instruction on how to get between the two. Only thing is, it was too close to home - eerily so, cringe worthily so.

Because of this trauma, I can only listen in 5 min batches, so I've had to borrow the book a few times.

I have been the author in her 'before' stage. I have made some tiny steps on my own before her 'tell all' book, towards the 'after'.

She is offering me a path - I want to follow.

I am ready to follow. (

Super helpful, practical advice. I really appreciated White hammering on the distinction between decluttering and organizing. The thrust of the book is that decluttering is mostly about mindset, rather than process, is especially valuable to me. Not to disparage her process. The writing is clear and authentic, and the book is well organized, although she is at her best when she stops trying to be funny. (

I have read this book at least 3 times in one month. I know she gets this a lot, but she totally understands the way that my brain works. "Slob vision" is a thing! If you have trouble with getting stuff out of your home, are over your "clutter threshold," this is the book for you. It was a great book for me. (

2023. This is the best book I've read on the psychology and useful methods for decluttering. The tip to store leftover containers with their lids on is worth the price of the book. Key point: Recognize that available space for particular items is finite and just keep what fits easily in that space. Also: Ask where you would look for this item and put it there. Ask whether it would even occur to you that you own it or would you just go out and get another one (In that case donate/discard). (
