Personal Review: SHED Your Stuff, Change Your Life: A Four-
Step Guide to Getting Unstuck by Julie Morgenstern
There are a lot of books out there on reorganizing and decluttering,
including Julie Morgenstern's own Organizing from the Inside Out, second
edition: The Foolproof System For Organizing Your Home, Your Office and
Your Life Most of these works are very helpful in assisting the reader in
getting control back into their lives by disposing of the clutter - physical or
otherwise - that holds them back. This latest work by Morgenstern takes
the decluttering and organizing process to a new level by assisting the
reader in identifying the "treasures" from a cluttered life, i.e. the good
things that clutter represented and retaining these treasures - more as
attitudes and perspectives than as physical possessions - and applying
them to a new life's "theme". This is an innovation in decluttering literature
which is interesting and exciting: by identifying a new "theme" in your life,
you can then focus your energies (as expressed in possesions, schedules
and habits) on those things that will move you towards your theme. So it's
not just a matter of getting rid of those tangible and intangible things that
hold you back, but of also identifying how you want your life overall to take
shape, and only bringing those things from the past with you that support
this new life theme. This is different from other organizers' advice who ask
you to visualize the role a room should play in your life (a la Peter Walsh,
for example, in It's All Too Much: An Easy Plan for Living a Richer Life with
Less Stuff). This new and different approach will help open reader's lives
to new opportunities and to new aspects of themselves that they may have
buried alive in their formerly cluttered existence. Morgenstern also gives
useful, encouraging and practical advice on how to take on new activities
to identify hidden strengths as well as how to move forward with your new
life's theme. If you are in a rut or at a crossroads, this is an invaluable book
for your library.
