Story
If you're reading this, then we have something in common, whether it's a love of getting crafty, meticulously organising or making fun-shaped snacks! I find it hard to sit still, but losing myself in a craft project or tidying a drawer is my form of meditation. It's a chance for me to forget about the things going on in the world around me for a minute. I hope this book helps you to lose yourself for a moment, too - and that you enjoy listening to it and even, maybe, having a go at some of the bits inside.

When you're trying to manage a busy family, it's easy to lose sight of the things that really matter and feel like you're drowning in worries while the pennies are drowning away. So many of us feel we have to pretend to be wealthier than we are and try to hide it when we can't afford something. Why though, when we are all sharing what we had for our tea and how many press ups we did that morning on social media, can't we be more honest about our finances? Why is there still so much shame and secrecy about being a bit strapped for cash, or in debt?

We never stop to question what's going on with us internally, so we keep mindlessly piling it all on: clothes with tags still on them, electronics we get just to impress people, and the precious slots in our agendas that we fill with things we don't actually want to do. Be honest. It's not organized chaos. Those are not collectibles. You're not "just really busy." You don't have to go. And no, you're never going to use that - whatever that is that's still in the original packaging that you've been holding on to since Y2K.

Döstädning, or the art of death cleaning, is a Swedish phenomenon by which the elderly and their families set their affairs in order. Whether it's sorting the family heirlooms from the junk, downsizing to a smaller place, or setting up a system to help you stop misplacing your keys, death cleaning gives us the chance to make the later years of our lives as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whatever your age, Swedish death cleaning can be used to help you de-clutter your life, and take stock of what's important.

Our attention has never been as overwhelmed or in demand as it is today; we've never been so busy while accomplishing so little, and we've grown uncomfortable with boredom and a lack of stimulation and distraction. In Hyperfocus, Chris Bailey - described by TED.com as 'the most productive man you could ever hope to meet' - provides profound insights into how we can best manage our attention. He reveals how the brain switches between two mental modes - hyperfocus, our deep concentration mode, and scatterfocus, our creative, reflective mode - and how the surest path to being our most creative and efficient selves at work is to combine them both.

The most inspirational book/audio I’ve read!
I have written a lengthy and detailed review of my personal experience with Declutter Dollies/Create Space by Dilly Carter and her team which has been posted by the author herself on her Instagram page.
I was in a very fortunate position to be able to tap in and have my choice of the multiple resources out there as a ‘go to’ in my declutter journey.
Create Space/Dilly Carter /Declutter dollies stood out head and shoulders above the rest…. in my opinion Dilly and her team are leaps and bounds ahead of the many other services that are currently available in the Declutter your home/free up your space etc etc trend which seems to be now saturated and difficult to pin down which service is right for you!….with no judgment,( trust me she’s seen it all!) and has a relatable back story…. kindness, compassion and most importantly a natural eye/sense for your home /and ultimately yourself and your family’s space what she and her team offer is a a super reasonable price package for the services offered.
My life has changed due to Dilly and her teams’-input into my living space with very simple and reasonably priced solutions.
Read the book or listen to the audio version as you wash the dishes and I guarantee you will become inspired even if you have no plans to book the personal service.
