It's All Too Much: An Easy Plan for Living A Richer Life with Less Stuff by Peter Walsh
Summary: When
Peter Walsh, organizational guru of TLC's hit show Clean Sweep and
a regular contributor toThe Oprah Winfrey Show, appeared on national
television shows and told people how they could reclaim their lives from the
suffocating burden of their clutter, the response was overwhelming. People
flooded Peter's website (www.peterwalshdesign.com) with success stories about
how his book had changed their lives.
Peter's unique approach helped people everywhere learn to let go of the
emotional and psychological clutter that was literally and figuratively choking
the life out of their homes.
With his good humor and reassuring advice, Peter shows you how to face the
really big question: What is the vision for the life you want to live? He then
offers simple techniques and a step-by-step plan to assess the state of your
home, prioritize your possessions, and let go of the clutter you have been
holding on to that has kept you from living the life you imagine. The result is
freed-up space, less stress, and more energy for living a happier, richer life
every day.
Angie's Comments: Having just moved, I felt I could use this book!
With a different layout and space available for my stuff, I have been wondering
how to fit it all in. It’s All Too Much
is a great guide for deciding how you want your home to be. Peter Walsh asks
you to imagine what you want your house to be like. He provides sample Room
Function Charts to fill out for each room, in which you answer questions like
what is the current function of the room, what it needs to contain, and so on.
The room function chart is a way of deciding what you want the room to be used
for, and from there you decide what should be in the room. So instead of trying
to wade through things, you have a plan of action.
The tips in this book are
helpful, although I won’t be using every one of them. I will be using the room
function chart as I adjust to my new place! It’s a good idea that I wasn’t
smart enough to think of!
