One of my New Year’s resolutions for this year is to keep my living and work spaces cleaner and tidier and to declutter. I have seen the benefits of it and have wanted to do it for a long time but it conflicts with my inner packrat that knows that almost everything could be just what I need someday in a certain situation. But today I’m taking the first step of committing to neatness. I think that must be the first step in every successful journey—knowing your destination. Neatness, here I come!
