Please complete any of the following statements:
  • “I struggle with paper clutter because ___.”
  • “I would have an easier time managing paper if only ___.”
  • “The accumulation of paper in my home makes me feel ___.”
I struggle with paper clutter because I am obsessive about having complete medical records, financial records (going back decades).
I would have an easier time managing paper if every month I eliminated some paper records from that same month a year ago and once a year eliminated some paper records from 7 or 10 years ago. Also, only keep as much paper records as will fit in my rather large safe deposit box.
The accumulation of paper in my home makes me feel overwhelmed, tired and out of control.
