Paper Boot Camp
Ok...this post of Simplify Your life is going to be super easy and super fun!!!! I want you to take this week and make it paper boot camp!!!! Admit it; you have WAY too much paper clutter in your house…from old magazines, to school and neighborhood newsletters, catalogs, and junk mail!!!!! Start in the farthest corner of your home and work you way through it.
Grab your “recycle box” and inch by inch work from one end of your house to the other…don’t try it all in one fail swoop…there are receipts to go through, bills to file, and invitations to respond to and throw away. Paper can take over your home if you let it. You must try to stay on top of it and one way of doing that is “paper boot camp.”
This way, at the end of the week you will be ready and waiting to receive the next piece of junk mail that enters your home….just walk it directly to the recycle box to join the other casualties from this week. Take your time, use the whole week if you need to….room by room, shelf by shelf, drawer by drawer, magazine rack by magazine rack…just do it….trust me…You will NOT miss it….and if you do, more will be coming soon! Have fun…and have no mercy!
