MAKE SURE  YOU HAVE CUT OUT YOUR CLUTTER CLEARING CATEGORY CARDS FROM WORKSHEET 4 IN EBOOK 2 BEFORE THE START OF YOUR ASSISTED CLUTTER CLEARING SESSION.

3.     Find 7 containers (bags or boxes are fine) to use for your 7 categories that you will sort the clutter into.

4.     Think about:

• What reward you can give yourself tomorrow evening for the hard work that you will be doing during the day.
• What room you want to start de-cluttering first. We will start and finish one room at a time.
• Where you are going to put your 7 containers. We need to put them OUTSIDE the room that we are de-cluttering first - I will explain why on the day.

5.     Wear something comfortable.

6.     Get a notebook and pen / pencil ready for the start of the day.

6.     Make a note of this telephone number:

---

To follow the process outlined on the day, you will need 2 of the things outlined below, and ideally the 3rd:

1.     9 Containers / bags / boxes.

7 for the 7 categories, 2 for putting the clutter in to take out of the room and categorise and through outside the room you are de-cluttering (as explained in the videos).

2.     Timer - to limit the amount of categorising and sorting we do to 30 minutes.

 

3.     Weekly Planner

If you have found that 'life' has got in the way, de-cluttering has stayed at the bottom of the to-do list or that somehow you never find time to do your clutter clearing, then you MUST plan your weeks and days. To do this,

It's not designed as an hour-by-hour planner. That is unrealistic and guaranteed to fail (and make us feel even more guilty and like a failure).

This is designed according to blocks of time e.g morning, lunchtime, afternoon, evening .

Simply sit down with it at the beginning of your week - with others in your home if necessary - and put on it what you know you already have in your diary.

When you see what gaps you have in your diary you can then plan your Clutter Clearing Sessions and associated rewards.

Advice:

Plan at least one more Clutter Clearing Session than you hope to achieve in the week. That way, if life takes over and eliminates one Clutter Clearing Session then you effectively have one spare to make up for loosing one session.

Note: 

If you find that you have no time in your week because you have too many things already in the diary then yes - you are going to HAVE to take something out and put a Clutter Clearing Session in. There is no way around it - if you don't make time to do it, it won't get done.

4.     To do list

You clutter is not just physical clutter - it's to-do list clutter as well. It's likely that the 20 spaces on worksheet 13 is not enough, so this to-do list template can help you keep all your to-do list things together. (if you have workbook 1 you also have a sleeve in the back to put additional papers).

Advice:

When you plan your week, plan a session on your to-do list items. Group together things that might require you to go out of the house and spend a couple of hours if necessary doing all those. It'll feel great being able to tick several things off at once after just one Clutter Clearing Session.

Note: 

If you don't make time to do things on your to-do list and only do Clutter Clearing Sessions, your to-do list will grow, and grow, and grow. We're trying to clear our clutter AND our to-do list so it's important to make time for the to-do list.
