      Interesting system

      Interesting system that is imminently practical (mostly) written by an engaging author. The ideas are simple, but motivating, and the accompanying print-outs are gorgeous.

    A Real Life Approach to Decluttering and Tidying-up Your Home.

    Hi, my name is Cassandra Aarssen, and I am a recovering super-slob. Not only was my home insanely cluttered, but my life was a cluttered mess as well. After years of struggling and drowning in clutter (both the physical and mental kind) my life has been totally transformed through a few simple organizing solutions. For all intents and purposes, I finally have this whole adult thing pretty much figured out. I can’t wait to share my secrets with you!

    If you are reading this book, chances are you are looking to infuse a little bit of organization into your life. I can promise you that if you take the time to complete the worksheets, do the checklists and use the labels included in this book, you will be catapulted from a cluttered mess to an organized success, no matter what your situation is right now. How can I be so confident in my claim? This book is the exact recipe I used for my own organizational success—and I was a hot mess.

    This book is going to be a little different than your traditional, organizational self-help book. It’s more of an instructional manual for how to declutter and organize your home and your entire life. I’m going to walk you through the complete process of organizing your time, home, finances, and even your dreams and aspirations in life. Taking just a few minutes to write down and make a plan for your biggest and most ambitious dreams is exactly how they are going to become a reality. This book can help you achieve the life that you deserve!

    If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!

    —Benjamin Franklin

    This workbook is about more than having a clean and clutter-free home (though we will make a plan for this as well); it’s about creating your life plan. This little workbook you are reading is going to help you transform every aspect of your life, from reducing your stress to increasing your overall happiness. I am thrilled to guide you on your journey towards an organized and
