I wondered for years why I was so messy. I don't seek to live in clutter, but I cannot seem to not have stacks of things. I am still really struggling with this area, but I finally started making a small amount of headway once I tried to start adopting a more minimalist lifestyle. I've started giving away clothes that I don't absolutely love, gave away one couch, lots of furnishings, etc. I figure if there's less stuff to sit my stacks on, maybe I'll be better about putting stuff away.

My biggest issue is organization. I cannot function in an organized room. A filing cabinet with things labeled looks beautiful, but I will forget my filing method and be unable to find anything. At least with my piles, I don't have to try to remember what safe place I his something where it's out of sight.
