[quote=Anonymous]Start small, OP. One stack/drawer/pile thing at a time and then quit. Set a time limit, like 5 minutes. Use that time to quickly look through and see if anything can be tossed. Have a trash bag. Toss any duplicates, any trash. Quit. Return later. I guarantee that you will want to keep working longer than five minutes once you keep going. Alternatively, strive for one clear countertop. For example, let's say your dining room table is cluttered and piled high with papers and toys and projects. Grab and empty box or bin and spend five minutes clearing the surface. Move everything into a box and/or pile. Once you have a clear surface, dust, clean and maybe set your table. Now you could technically eat there. Quit. Return and again break down your piles - toss, donate, or "think about it."[/quote]
