Hammonds Conclusion

Everyone loves that feeling of a good de-clutter, being able to walk into your bedroom and know where everything is. There's usually one problem, those random places you leave important things so you see them every day just in case you need them at the drop of a hat. The things you eventually tidy away the day before you need them and poof they're gone, into the magical abyss of the monthly overhaul, end-of-your-tether tidy up. It's typical, the time you need that something it will be just days after you've given it its own place, which you've totally forgotten whereabouts that is. You start the search, so mad with yourself that you moved it because you've been staring at it in that place for ages. 

If you have the same problem, this book is where the penny drops. Tackling categories at a time, not rooms. It's hard to understand because my mind usually wanders, especially if I'm walking around the house. But, it works and everything under that category gets it in one hit, not room by room. 

This book is as much about self-discovery as it is about tidying. A must read if you have a lost emotional connection with your belongings.
