Thank you for series on clutter. In March I began my serious GTD implementation after over a year of fooling around, “half measures” to put it kindly. It took 3 Sunset Scavernger dumpsters to make a dent in my house where I’ve been for 40 years, its an old Victorian in Noe Valley, cheap when I bought it, and falling down under weight of years of office/work/life in the city. I’m still implementing. I loved the comments about too many containers from the Container Store -it was costly indeed to bring in the elfa new closets and added to the clutter, though it “looks” a little better than before. I kept throwing out piles of papers from everywhere my eyes rested. At the third dumpster my husband said “STOP” so I’m left with piles yet to go. Is there no end in sight? OK Merlin, those were good directions, no more Container Store “remedies” —I’ll keep tossing weekly till the garbage cans are full. Thanks for the post. I’m ordering the book from Amazon (my Amazon habit fills a whole house of floor to ceiling bookcases). After all, its needed for my productivity.
