Live More Want Less
Live More Want Less
I read the book Live More Want Less: 52 Ways to Find Order in Your Life by Mary Carlomagno. It was recently discussed in my book club.
I have to say I loved it. I would describe this book as 52 practical lessons on getting your life together and appreciating what you already have in your life. Intertwining with organizing lessons throughout, the book really made me think about my life. And of course how I treat what I hold dear.
Mary, the author, owns an organizing company name Order, so she knows what she’s talking about. But she takes organizing to another level and really makes you think about why you keep what you keep. And how you treat what you keep.
You may find this book to be helpful, especially if you have tried to get organized and have been unsuccessful.
Because, I have always believed, organizing is not about the stuff.
Do you struggle with getting and staying organized?
Are you afraid to start an organizing project just to be overwhelmed or lose motivation in the middle, to be left with even more chaos? You are not alone. That’s the fear of most people who don’t have time to allot to a big organizing project.
