HOW DID YOU FIND THAT?Have you ever lost your keys or your phone? And where is that piece of paper you had in your hand a few minutes ago? How is it possible to lose things in your own home? If you're like me, you like your things. All of them. And who can blame us? But without a dependable system to maintain control, we would live in a constant state of overwhelm and chaos. How Did You Find That? Four Habits From Chaos To Control by Carrie Kane teaches the four simple habits of: 1. Seeing 2. Grouping 3. Containing 4. Storing The BackstoryHow did you find that? That was the question my neighbor asked a few years ago when she needed help reviving a crashed computer. I told her I'd be over in a few minutes but needed to grab a diagnostic disk (okay, so it was more than a few years ago). When I arrived at her door a few minutes later as promised my neighbor was shocked - wide eyes, gaping mouth shocked. She pointed to the disk in my hand and said, "How did you find that?"At first her confusion didn't register with me. What did she mean, how did I find that? Then I entered her home and understood. She was living in chaos. There were piles everywhere. Clean or dirty, it was hard to tell. There were shopping bags filled with clothes in a corner, piles of papers and unopened mail. The bed was not made, and her laundry was heaped on the mattress. She could not find a thing she owned in her own small apartment, and she needed help.The answer to her question, How Did You Find That? is in this book.
