Rhea Becker — who, as the
Clutter Queen, offers organizing services for
homes and offices
in Boston — says many of her clients appreciate how professionals speed up the process by keeping them focused on maximizing profits and avoiding digressions
over each object's history.
When I start to feel overwhelmed with
clutter, whether it's on my desk or
in my
home, I take a short block of time — 20 to 45 minutes — and I turn off all communication; I let voice mail take
over.
