		Bring something new into your home without getting rid of something old. Save magazines. Recycle them - but tear out articles you want to read. Save large school projects. Take pictures instead. Let paper build up on countertops. Assign everyone their own file or shelf. Display things you don't like. Don't let guilt cause your home to be cluttered. Be hard on yourself — new habits take time to become routine. Take baby steps — declutter one drawer a day. Open the mail by the recycle box. Toss old phone books and maps. Use on line bill pay. Toss or donate shoes you haven't worn in 2 years. Set the timer for 15 minutes and gather items to toss or donate.
