Paper clutter is one of the sneakiest forms of clutter. Each piece of it is incredibly small, yet as a whole it takes up a lot of space in our minds and can create a significant amount of stress in your life.But, it’s even trickier than just it’s small size. Paper clutter is one of the only forms of clutter that constantly comes into our homes without our consent.With nearly everything else that clutters up your home, there is generally an exchange - something purchased or given as a gift. But, paper clutter sneaks in through the mail, in our children’s backpacks, with purchased products as manuals, nice greeting cards, unsolicited coupons and catalogs, class and work notes taken, and art created at home. No wonder we’re drowning in the stuff!If we’re not making the decision to take the paper in the first place, we almost forget that we need to give it a home or get it out of ours as quickly as possible.One of the best ways to conquer paper clutter is to stay on top of it, but with everyone being busier than ever, it’s hard to get ahead of the game with the non-stop flow of papers.
