Google minimalism. It's an interesting concept that I'm not close to being at. It's basically doing with less. Instead of trying to develop an elaborate system to organize your stuff... get rid of it. Instead having 27 knickknack, vases, figurines, cutesy little thingamajiggies all over the house each one needing dusting.... Just have a few of the nicest pieces that bring you the most joy.
There is a challenge called the 100 thing challenge. This is for your personal belongings. Not kitchen stuff , your bike, car, etc. socks and underwear count as one thing. All your socks is one thing for examples. I got down to 200 once. iPad, iPod, phone, computer, speaker for iPod I kept. got rid of a bunch of old tech, old cords that I don't even know what the are for etc. MY shoes was the hard part. I have tons of them but I only wear about 3 or 4'pairs out of all of them. It's an on going project
