When the overwhelm kicks in, we know we need to take action but it can be such a challenge to know where to start. A burst of energy one day might lead to lots of cupboards being emptied with good intentions, and then the contents of these cupboards lay around the room in piles gathering dust when burnout hits. So what should we do? My advice is to take a breath, grab a pen, paper and a drink of your choice, and follow these steps.

A decluttering and organising method to use or too overwhelming?
