It’s time once again to parse the particular problems that paper poses. We’ll examine the habits and beliefs that lead to heaps, folders, boxes, bags, bins, and drawers full of bills, receipts, records, recipes, clippings, statements, magazines, and more. In episode #247 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, discusses the reasons we keep more paper than we need and offers pointers for purging your personal paper piles.
