A lot of Zen stuff included... why might you be the disorganized self you are, etc. I found some of the tips helpful but wanted more tips on staying organized once I rearranged according to her instructions. If only she could visit and do the work for me. I also found her suggestions about why people hang on to so much stuff helpful as a way to inspire me to get rid of it. Bottom line -- some good suggestions and some parts of the book to skim through. "
