Decluttering
Nearly every time I mention to someone that I write about simplicity, I'm greeted with a long sigh, a sheepish look, or a desperate story about wanting to get rid of clutter but not knowing how to get started. My own search for simplicity began more than forty years ago with a massive declutter of my messy dorm room during finals week. As soon as my physical space was cleared, my mind was free to focus on my studies.
Since then, whether living alone in an efficiency apartment or with a busy family in a three-bedroom house, I've kept my home clutter-free. Hands-down, the easiest way to get started, especially if you don't have much time, is this three-box method. You'll need three boxes (or bags) and as little as half an hour.
Loved the article, haven’t done that type of decluttering myself but can totally see it working for me.
But heck, even the article is minimalist itself in writing presentation… no over complication in the choice of words, no fluff, no over explanations.
This is totally lost in the interwebz of today, you all got something magical over here.
