Get Ready – Prep For Success!

The Declutter Challenge is almost a week away, so I wanted to make sure you are squared away!

The 4 Most Important Details – 

#1 – Know The Plan

There are two main ways to know how the program works, which room to work on and what to do:

[FREE] Subscribe To The Blog To Get Challenge Updates-

You’ll find a subscription box on the sidebar (desktop) or at the bottom (mobile view) – or just subscribe here.

Purchase a Printable Pack-

While the blog will still help, it is motivating and convenient to have the full 13 week plan printed and ready to go.

Get the Declutter Printable Guide.

#2 – Join A Group

Getting the right support during your declutter is so important! Facebook groups have proven to be very successful encouragement. Our group has been very successful at helping people. (Be sure to read the rules when you get to the group!)

Challenge: Organization  | Facebook Group

This is an amazing group of supportive people. The group focuses on whatever the current challenge is, whether it is Decluttering, Spring Cleaning, Organizing Challenge, etc.

#3 – Get In The Mood To Declutter

Read through the articles, especially the ones that apply most for you. Reading about decluttering before you get started will get you in the mood. You can learn about some of the obstacles before you’re actually confronting them, so you’ll be ready.

Don’t just wing it, stop and think through what you’re doing. That will be the start of real and lasting change.

#4 – Make A Plan For Yourself

Make a plan for yourself – how will you work this challenge into your life? Don’t just guess, really think about when and how you could do it. Big goals like this don’t happen by accident.

Also, get your bags and boxes ready! You’ll need a place to put trash and recycle items. Don’t let silly obstacles like that delay you from starting.

YOU. CAN. DO. THIS.

I’m so excited, I really wait all year for this!!!



Don't forget your Declutter Printable Pack - it's more than just checklists!

    This will be my second year to do the declutter…….As I was cleaning up today from Christmas I stacked all my sizeable empty boxes because I knew I would need them to move out all the stuff cluttering my home and my life. I’m ready! Let’s go!

    Mary, I’m already part of your regular mailing list. Do I need to sign up for a separate one for this challenge?

    I have purchased the printable pack, but everytime I click the link to join the FB group, I get a message that the content is unavailable, or I don’t have permission to view, etc. Is the page live yet?

      Hmm … not sure. It is an active group, active right now. There are over 24000 people right now. Is this the group you’re requesting to join?: https://www.facebook.com/groups/maryorganizes/
