You go shopping for containers to get your clutter problem under control without having measured, counted, or examined what and how much you have to store.
You go on impulsive purging sprees, ruthlessly getting rid of as much as you can to create a spare existence, then discover too late that you tossed out something that was important to you.
You "adopt" organizing tips from friends, magazines, and books with no thought as to whether they mesh with your personality or fit your situation and needs.
One of the worst things for you to do is to tackle little bits and pieces of your organizing problem without ever looking at the big picture.
You grab on to mantras like "reduce your possessions 50 percent," or "touch every piece of paper only once, " or "if you haven't used it in two years, get rid of it," in the hope that they will change your life forever.
