Hope for the Overwhelmed and Helpful for everyone else!
I. Love. This. Book. It was easy and quick to read and kept my attention throughout the book. That is important to me as I can be easily distracted. The hard thing about sticking to reading this book is that it will make you want to get up and go declutter!
I just learned of Dana K. White four months ago. I quickly related to everything that she said. I felt like I finally found someone who really understands me! I’m not the horrible person I had been believing I was. I just didn’t know how to manage my stuff! I have felt like a failure when it comes to housekeeping my entire life. I am 58 years old. My stinking thinking is now changing and I feel hopeful!
Dana takes you step by step, room by room, and makes it easy! In fact, the first rule is to do the easy stuff first — trash! Why did I never think of that myself? Then you go to the next easy thing. I can do that! And things start looking better. I have now learned that “less is better”. I don’t have to do it perfectly for it to be better.
Dana does have a sense of humor but in this book you will also see a serious and compassionate side. I appreciated that as much as the humor.
I pre-ordered this book, but also got to read an advance copy as a member of the launch team. I plan to get the audio version as well. Dana is fun to listen to.
Thank you, Dana, for the opportunity to read this book and for the encouragement that you give to so many!! I’m so glad I found you!
