Introduction This book is for both those who love to organize in their free time and those who want to get organized but feel they just can't make the time. It's for the moms who are sick of looking at sippy cups in their cabinets and wish there was more room for champagne glasses. It's for those of us who go to work, sit at our desks, and continue to wonder how we always end up with so many pens that rarely have ink. It's for the craft lovers, the beauty product enthusiasts, and the jet-set travelers. Basically, this book is for everyone. We wanted to create a book that shows you how to live the life you love without feeling bad about the things you own. We wanted to show you that being organized isn't limited to pantries, closets, and other rooms in your house. It also extends to your hobbies, your travel, and even your phone. Organizing is a lifestyle and mindset that anyone can adopt. Consider this book our 360-degree approach to help you contain the chaos of your life and all the contents that come with it--whatever that may be. Alright, now that we have that covered, it's time to step inside and leave any guilt you might have about owning things at the door . . . except can you maybe take your shoes off first? Thanks!
