This book is pretty repetitive and about 80% longer than it needed to be, but did express a three worthwhile ideas. One, that some people view cleaning as a "project" and thus let things pile up to the point that it's basically insurmountable (and everything is dirty/cluttered in between), and second that there are compounding effects to cleaning, and third that outside constraints (size of containers, etc.) can be useful as forcing functions to minimize clutter. There's basically no useful information about optimized cleaning methods (the book seems to claim these are not factors, and that searching for these are in fact counterproductive ways to procrastinate, but there are definitely ways to improve efficiency) or anything else; it's more a chatty discourse about the author's view of cleaning. Sort of an anti-Marie Kondo, a book which I also disliked. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

However, I'm partly on the same page as "Octal" (check out his post down below at Jan 1, 2021). This 2016 book is indeed terribly repetitive and maybe reflects the author's learning curve on writing style. Where was the insightful editor? Reiterating previously-made advice undermines the impact of her philosophy. Her Decluttering at the Speed of Life effectively made similar points on decluttering, and was a very constructive narrative in managing clutter in a busy life. ( )
