Love the reverse hanger idea, only problem for me is I don't hang too much. My closet is full of shelves. But, I did recently donate a ton of clothes, so score! I need to work on the reduction (and elmination) of snoozing the alarm. Great ideas! Love the reverse hanger idea, only problem for me is I don’t hang too much. My closet is full of shelves.

We had a big garage sale to get rid of clutter, I've been unsubscribing to emails like a madwoman and paring down clothing. (I have 4 bags in my car as we speak that are going to goodwill.) Already I feel so much lighter and less overwhelmed but I still have a long way to go! Great post and good luck with your simplifying! : ) I have been slowly working towards some serious simplification over the last few months as a result of constantly feeling overwhelmed.

I am proud to say that I have been heading in the direction of a simpler life in the last 6 months. We recently moved, and I got rid of 5 huge trash bags of clothes. I've also taken to using my google calendar and task list in order to better keep track of my week, though I am not quite at the "planning my day" phase... Somehow I need to foster more work ethic in myself, so that, even when I have planned my day, I don't shirk in the things I have to do in favor of relaxation. But again, what a great post!

Inbox - check! Have a plan - check! Stick to the plan - oops...not always. I too love the snooze button. Must do better in sticking with the plan and not let sleepiness, unwanted tasks, or distractions get me off track. Closet – check! Inbox – check! Have a plan – check!
