Rating  - Professional Organizers point of view
I am a Professional Organizer and the book is excellent in getting organized, how to's, step by step instructions. I would recommend this book to every Professional Organizer and those who are wanting to become and stay organized. After watching "Oprah's Compulsive Hoarding" show it became reality from small clutter to hoarding!
Rating - It's All Too Much
This is a good organizing book as it encourages the reader to get rid of whatever is causing the clutter, and making a person feel silly for some of the junk we hang onto. I'm still reading it, going thru it slowly, and eliminating things as I go. Peter Walsh, the author, has a sense of humor and you feel he is there, helping you all the way.
Rating - Helped me clean out my house and clean up my life!
This book put into words all the things I have been feeling about the clutter and "stuff" in my house for years. It is an engaging and fast read, and will truly make you want to get up and start cleaning immediately.
It motivated me to get rid of things I hadn't used or seen in years, and made me realize life is not about owning things, it is about relaxing and enjoying what you have. And in order to do that, the clutter has to go! I feel better, my husband feels better, and my son is happier that he can now comfortably do his homework in his room and have friends over. I can easily walk in the garage when I haven't been able to do so in years. Thank you SO much for writing this book, Mr. Walsh. You will NOT regret reading this book!!! No exaggeration, it has changed my family's life.
Rating - It's ALL too MUCH
This book was recommended by a friend who saw Peter on Oprah. He has a cable show - Clean Sweep. I was very familiar with the show so I decided to order the book. It arrived at my place of business and my bosses daughter started reading it. ( I had to work, sigh) I took it home after work and started reading it assuring Allison that I would bring it back. The next day I brought it back and Allison finished it. That same day my boss picked it up and started to read it. She wanted to know if I would leave it so she could finish so she could read it. I still had not finished it. I jokingly asked her what she was going to give me for collateral. When I came to work the next morning,I learned that she had asked her husband to go and purchase a copy for themselves while she continued to read. I finally got mine back.
All this to say that I have recommended it to over 12 people. The family I work for have spend time around the dinner table reading it as a family and their adult son finally cleaned his room and got rid of years and years of stuff. They will tell you, as they have me, that this book has transformed their lives as well as their children.
I have gotten feed back from the people that I have recommended this book to and they all agree. It has changed my life and how I look at clutter.
Early last year I went with my boss and their daughter to clean out his parents home of over 40 years. Nothing had been tossed and it now fell on his shoulders being the only child. I have done clean outs before and it is always an eye opening and motivating experience. He vowed not to leave a mess for his children. He had no mess even close to the one we experience. This book helped him to keep it all in perspective and keep his motivation.
Well, all this to say this book is excellent and I would highly recommend it.
If Peter ever reads this I give Amazon permission to have him contact me. I believe in this book and would like to personally thank him.
