Find a Clutter Buddy

There is an organizing concept called Body Double. Many of my clients recognize its benefit without realizing it had a name. Another word for it is Clutter Buddy or Clutter Companion. It’s a friend / neighbor / colleague / family member / Professional Organizer who simply holds you accountable to your task by their presence. They keep you focused, keep you from giving up, let you talk through a challenge with them, and keep you company when you’re working on a project which you find boring like cleaning out your kitchen cupboards/bedroom closets or drawers / sorting through baby clothes / filing / opening mail, etc.
