In This Chapter

•  Addressing your clutter demons

•  Releasing clutter as you go

•  Redirecting the desire to acquire

The fight against clutter is more like a war than a battle. No matter how well and decisively you evict it, clutter will keep coming back, trying to put a foot in the door and take up residence again.

How do you keep clutter from coming back? By addressing the inner voices that slow clutter decision making, creating checkpoints to release clutter as you go, and adopting new ways to live in which less is more.
