Description

Clearing clutter is really two jobs: reducing the backlog of accumulated stuff and cultivating habits to keep the mess from getting worse. The more effectively you handle ongoing maintenance, the more energy you’ll have to devote to the backlog project. In episode #273 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, suggests a dozen five-minute maintenance tasks as the foundation for a clutter-prevention workflow.
