To get your life back!
I have tried organizing everything most of my life, with little success. After reading this book I finally got a handle on organizing. Her approach as to why you need all this stuff, and why you keep all this stuff and how it impacts your life was an eye opener. Easy to read, helpful I will keep it for future reference if ever I start to backslide!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
