The Clutter Explosion: Where Did All This Crap Come From? Jennifer Dawson

Publisher Marketing: So many chores to do and so little time to get them done: it's the plight that many of us face on a daily basis. When it is not work clutter limiting our tiring minds, it is clutter at home, in the car and even from family. It's no wonder we sometimes believe that the calm and peace we crave is not attainable anymore due to our busy schedules. Yet with the proper plan of action, we all can clear away the unnecessary clutter in our lives and establish a sense of peace. Author Jennifer Dawson experienced her own battles with a cluttered house, intensified with being a newlywed and her mother's passing. However, she saw her clutter as a purposeful path in her life and became an expert in organization. Her new self-help book, The Clutter Explosion, assists readers in achieving a de-cluttered lifestyle once again with useful tips and principles to apply towards getting to the cause of the "stuff" accumulation. Using her acronym of C. R. A. P. to create a plan of action, Jennifer goes from rooms in the house, to the car, to the office, to people themselves to decide what needs to stay and what should go. The goal, as Jennifer states throughout the book, is to treat organization as an ongoing journey, one that is perfected with practice, time and effort. As the clutter disappears, peace will return and the willingness to stay in control of our environments will become a lifelong goal. Organization cannot be attained in a marathon cleaning session. The only way to truly deal with the clutter explosion is to apply small, incremental changes, and continue to make those changes day by day, step by step. Training for any sport involves regular practice and motivation -- organization is the same." Contributor Bio:  Dawson, Jennifer ennifer Dawson grew up in the suburbs of Chicago and graduated from DePaul University with a degree in psychology. She met her husband at the public library while they were studying. To this day she still maintains she was NOT checking him out. Now, over twenty years later they're married living in a suburb right outside of Chicago with two awesome kids and a crazy dog. Despite going through a light FM, poem writing phase in high school, Jennifer never grew up wanting to be a writer (she had more practical aspirations of being an international super spy). Then one day, suffering from boredom and disgruntled with a book she'd been reading, she decided to put pen to paper. The rest, as they say, is history. These days Jennifer can be found sitting behind her computer writing her next novel, chasing after her kids, keeping an ever watchful eye on her ever growing to-do list, and NOT checking out her husband.
