“Approach the spaces in your home this way: First, your living room and family room. Second, your own bedroom and the other bedrooms in the house. Third, all the clothes closets. Fourth, your home's bathrooms and the laundry room. Fifth, your kitchen and dining areas. Sixth, your home office. Seventh, your storage areas, including your toy room and craft work spaces. Eighth, your garage and yard. ...this represents the easier-to-harder progression.”

“We amass material things for the same reason that we eat - to satisfy a craving. Buying on impulse and eating and drinking to excess are attempts to alleviate stress. From observing my clients, I have noticed that when they discard excess clothing, their tummies tend to slim down, when they discard books and documents, their minds become clearer, when they reduce the number of cosmetics and tidy up the area around the sink and bath, their complexion tends to become clear and their skin smooth. -p226”

“Embarking on our path as a courageous soul will remind us that ultimately it does not matter how well we live, or the best way to avoid errors in our lifestyle decisions. Beginning will positively change our daily routines and habits, but the surface level changes are only a meager reward compared to the spiritual lessons along the way.”

“In the process of decluttering things in my life, I was peeling off the layers of my past that no longer mattered to my present life. But as I did that shedding, memories and emotions arose. I sometimes felt sadness as I removed reminders of a failed marriage or the loss of a loved one. I grieved lost dreams and deceased people and pets. If I looked for it, I also experienced gratitude for the good times and the love that once was. Eventually, I felt lighter after I worked my way through a particular emotional zone that exposed remnants of unhealed parts of my life.”

“Per quanti oggetti possediate, la loro quantità è pur sempre limitata. Se riuscite a scoprire quali oggetti vi danno gioia e a decidere dove riporli, il riordino finirà, prima o poi. Più andate avanti, più vi avvicinate all'obiettivo di avere una casa piena di felicità.”

“Secondo dei dati statistici, trascorriamo in media trenta minuti al giorno a cercare le cose, e chi è particolarmente disordinato dedica alla ricerca degli oggetti smarriti addirittura due ore al giorno. Se una persona lavora venti giorni al mese, significa che spreca fino a quaranta ore al mese a cercare cose che non sono al loro posto. Se riuscite a risolvere questo problema in sole sei ore, il ritorno dell’investimento di tempo sarà enorme e immediato. Con una scrivania ordinata che vi dà gioia, la vostra efficienza al lavoro è destinata a crescere.”

“I consider minimalism not as a destination but rather as a tool and a mindset to reduce distractions and overwhelm. It is not a competition. You are a winner if you find the amount of stuff and size of your home to be perfect for you and your lifestyle and situation. You only lose if you never consider the potential benefits of decluttering and leave your loved ones with messes and burdens.”
