"Listened to the audio version. Great for Add-ish people needing to get a start on wrapping their mind around becoming more organized. This is NOT a how to book, Sandra Felton has others for that, but this is the book that got me going to becoming serious about digging myself out of the clutter! " — Alexa (5 out of 5 stars)

“The straightforward writing is made even more digestible by Melinda Schmidts clarity, steady optimism, and flawless understanding of every idea presented.”
" At last a book that looks at the root of the problem instead of offering bandages to place on the symptoms. "
" Good concepts, and great info on how things like ADD and OCD play into the messie syndrome, but slim on practical steps. I'm liking The New Messies Manual better on that front, and a lot of repeat between them. "
" This book was more about psychology than housekeeping skills and it gave me lots to think about. "
" Listened to the audio version. Great for Add-ish people needing to get a start on wrapping their mind around becoming more organized. This is NOT a how to book, Sandra Felton has others for that, but this is the book that got me going to becoming serious about digging myself out of the clutter! "
" Something I am striving for - to learn to be cleaner and better organized at home. "
" This is not a book of practical advice. It is more a book about motivations and ideas. If you have a cluttered home, this book can help you understand why and help you see a way out. It lead me to a better understanding of why I am the way I am and what to do about it. "
" A different approach... this book focuses on the reasons it may be hard for some people to maintain a clean home. (There are not a lot of specific tips for getting organized.) I am intrigued by the author's approach and will read more from her. "
" This book is about so much more than organizing your home. WOW WOW WOW. Truly, it is changing the way I live. "
" Christian overtones throughout, but the discussion of the psychology of clutter is interesting. What motivates us to be messy? It's hard to not be insulted by the tag "messies" that she uses to refer to disorganized souls like myself who are seeking guidance. "
" This took a sudden and odd jump to religion. That really threw me. I barely finished this. What I thought might be helpful tips on organization and keeping your possessions to a minimum became a religious interpretation of what the clutter means. Very confusing. "
