I admit it, I collect everything! - I have no idea why I purchased this book in the first place. I am SO glad I did!Peter Walsh s book has shown me how I have been running my life - cluttered and collecting stuff to fill every room I own. My husband and I have very busy lives. If we invite anyone over, it takes two days to prepare the house for guests which usually means I shove things in to another room and shut the door. I think Peter has some how seen my lifestyle and named his book after my living condition, It s all too Much, lol.I purchase stuff for the sake of how much money I saved. I purchase stuff to make me feel better. I purchase just for the sake of purchasing!This book has shown me (step by step) there is a light at the end of the tunnel and has brought forward my long lost yearning to have a home I want to live in. I am now 90% closer to my clutter free dream home and loving every purge to get there.This book has helped me understand why I held on to items that I thought are important. It has taught me how to sort through and be rid of useless items for good. The points from the book that hit home for me were:1. If the items mean so much to me than why are they in the basement or garage collecting dust and not on display?2. How much money (per sq foot) is it costing me to store all this stuff that I don t use?3. Why purchase things that I think I may use down the road.These are just a few pointers of this book, I m sure you ll find ones that hit home with you as they did me.The most important teaching of this book is how I ve learned to rid the emotional garbage in my life by tossing, donating, or giving all the excess away. It s been a change of life. It s very gratifying to have family or friends over unannounced and not feel embarassed of my home s condition. I now buy only what I need for today, have a fabulous home and save the excess money in a savings account. Believe me, this book is a win / win situation!It s the best psychology book I ve ever purchased.

I m the son of two champion clutter-a-holics and the brother of a future world-record-setting clutter-a-holic. My bad habits with my stuff drive my wife and daughter crazy.But I ve been making headway for several years. Each time I read a book about clutter busting, I make a little more progress.It s All Too Much is the first book I ve read about clutter busting that deals with the key challenges of my clutter busting:1.

Ways to condense emotion-laden materials without losing your memories.4. Room-specific suggestions for reducing what you have.5. How to keep from re-creating the piles and clutter.As I read the book, I recognized myself on almost every page.

After all, almost anything else is more fun. If clutter doesn t bother you, you may not realize how good a thing you can do for others by working on that clutter.I also liked the book s emphasis on limiting what you acquire (and let others acquire for you).
