Danica, it’s always a pleasure to learn from you and your journey. Let’s start with a bit of a warmup: What makes you lose track of time—and find yourself again?

Having a transitional space like a mudroom between the outside world and the rest of your home is a great way to help keep your home cleaner and more organized. Unfortunately, a mudroom can become cluttered and messy unless you keep it well-organized.

A cluttered environment affects how you feel on the inside. It also has an impact on your mental health and can make you feel overwhelmed and stressed. It causes chaos. When you hold onto physical clutter, you hold on to mental clutter, as well.

If there’s one storage spot in your home that embodies the “out of sight, out of mind” attitude, it’s under the bed. Stashing stuff under there is an efficient method for keeping bulky items out of the way, but it’s also an easy place to put things you’ll quickly forget about—a storage black hole, if you will.

Clutter means mess, jumble, litter, heap, tangle, welter, muddle, hotchpotch, hodgepodge, mishmash, confusion, medley. I prefer the word confusion to mess. I even like hodgepodge and mishmash. You see, cluttered is the way we feel when things are out of order.

Sometimes, when you declutter, your results are less than expected. You still have too much stuff! Maybe it's because you're struggling with some common decluttering mistakes that many people make.

Decluttering your home can feel like an overwhelming task, leaving you wondering where to even begin. Should you start with a specific room, a category of items, or simply dive in wherever you see clutter? Choose to take that first step.

Hack Decks® was developed as a tool for clients of our boutique organizing business, The Uncluttered Life®. The deck helps clients declutter on their own. The Uncluttered Life® specializes in creating functional and affordable organizing solutions, particularly those who struggle with ADHD.

Most of us struggle with keeping an organized home because we have too much stuff. We're not talking about easy-to-toss or recyclable things. Rather, it's the sentimental or "I might need this one day" items that cause us to give up. This is called “Someday Syndrome.”

When you look at a disorganized room in your home, you may ask yourself, "Is this room too small?" or "Do I have too much clutter?" According to professional organizer, Danica Carson of The Uncluttered Life, Inc., the issue for most of her clients is that they need to purge some belongings.

Over the years, I’ve learned that confidence and self-esteem are struggles for just about everyone, especially in business. But starting your own business amplifies those insecurities tenfold. The constant up and down can take a huge toll on your confidence, not only professionally but personally, too.

Take a good look around your house—is every surface covered with stuff? Are there any spots where you can give your eyes and mind a rest? If the answers are yes and no, your room is cluttered and can use a refresh.

The space under your bed seems like a perfect place to stash things. But, according to professional organizer Danica Carson, under-bed storage must be done properly so you don't ruin your belongings.

If there’s one storage spot in your home that embodies the “out of sight, out of mind” attitude, it’s under the bed. Stashing stuff under there is an efficient method for keeping bulky items out of the way. There are some downsides to this method. Read to learn more.
