Publisher's Summary

Most organizational books on the market profess to have a one-size-fits-all solution to home organization.

Common anthems are to: go paperless, get rid of everything that doesn't spark joy, and capsulize your wardrobe. While some find success using these methods, the majority of American women are facing decades of delayed decisions piled high in unmarked boxes and shoved in storage rooms bursting at the seams. Fifteen-minute-a-day organization tips and color coordinated plastic boxes are no match for the memories and clutter contained in those rooms.

What is needed is a complete mindset shift. It's time to look at home organization in a whole new way. Each phase of a woman's life brings unique organizational challenges and emotional clutter to tackle. Looking at a women's life as a journey through four distinct phases of life provides a framework to anchor basic organization principals.

"This is the home organization book that will make the rest of the books in your collection make sense." - Lisa Woodruff, Professional Organizer and Productivity Expert.

As a professional organizer and productivity specialist, Lisa Woodruff has helped hundreds of women in Cincinnati, Ohio and thousands of women around the world, get their homes organized and keep them that way. Her book The Mindset of Organization encourages women to take back their homes one phase at a time. Find out more at www.organize365.com/mindset

Hooked on her podcasts

I recently got hooked on her podcasts so I found that this was a nice focus on her main points. I am not religious so the book had less talk of that than her podcasts. Love her real talk about how much paper everyone has and her non-judgemental guidance. I try to be environmentally friendly so some of her advice gives me a twitch but she is still very inspirational to hear speak on these things.

Unless you’re a stay at home mom, don’t bother

This book promises that it’s not a one size fits all solution!

But from the get go, it’s presented as a “fits almost no one” solution.

I couldn’t even get through the book! After almost 2 hours in, I stopped listening and returned it.

First and for-most, I am a man and was looking for some help organizing. However, she only refers to women in her book, alienating me immediately. More over, at points she narrows her focus to stay at home moms, specifically describing one of her stages saying “this is around the time when women are looking at going back to work”. What about the women who never stopped working? Why about women who don’t get married? Or don’t have children? She leaves them out of the loop. I made it through the first stage where the only useful tip she gave is to have kids organize their room once a week. She skips right over the details of how to help kids do that and goes into stories about her organizing for people she babysat for.

Great that you have a personal story, but it doesn’t help me.

But then again, you made it painfully obvious that your book isn’t for me.
