Clutterboy’s Favorite Words

“WOW!”,

“Perfect!” and

“I’ve Been Looking for That!”

The Patented Clutterboy Binary System

It’s simply a matter of “Keep” or “Bye-bye.”

“Keep” means you want to hang on to it. “Bye-bye” means you never have to think about it again. I know exactly what to do with it: Again: Donate, Recycle, Repurpose or, as we’ve been saying as a last resort, Trash.

The Big Trick: if you hesitate for even a couple seconds it’s a “Keep”: it makes it to the second round. And nothing is going to leave your space right away. You always have a chance to change your mind.
