Overview

Somehow, no matter how hard some people try to change their messy habits, they just can’t seem to keep their homes in any kind of order. Magazines and books and television shows offer all kinds of advice and tactics for keeping a house organized and neat and livable. But what some people need is not more advice but a change in their mindsets.
Organizing for Life helps readers understand why they seem to be inherently messy people, exposing the lies they tell themselves and introducing the truth about how they really can have a clean, inviting home. Felton helps readers focus on overcoming the roadblocks that keep them in a permanently messy state in order to change their habits for good.

From the Back Cover

Say good-bye to the stress of mess--for good!

You can find the order, beauty, and peace you desire--and deserve--in your home. Organizing for Life reveals the secrets of keeping your house neat, clean, and organized without spending every minute of your life working on it.

Finally a book that goes beyond the how-tos of cleaning and looks right at the heart of messiness so permanent change can take place. You’ll learn why things are out of control so you can get them back in order and keep them that way. You’ll uncover the mental and emotional roots of clutter--guilt, fear, rebellion, habit--so you can get rid of it.

Even the best cleaning methods are useless if you can’t keep up and soon slip back into old habits. Stop struggling. You can overcome that old, unsuccessful mind-set and discover a new way of thinking that makes messiness a thing of the past.
