What to do with that clutter?

When you have so much clutter and don't know where to start try one corner of a room first or one corner of a counter then move to the next. You will be amazed at this simply approach and how much you can get accomplished one step and a time.

1. Take everything that doesn't belong there and put it where it goes.
   
2. Everything that can be thrown away or given away file in the garbage or the box to go to charity.
   
3. Wipe down/sweep or clean area
   
4. Start over and before you know it you have an area free of clutter and how cleansing that can be for the soul.
   

If you have troubles finishing a task see if putting on some music and singing to the music while you work….. Sometimes that works.

How do you work through your clutter?
