"After Andrew's session at CPSC last month, I felt energized to work through my stuff, so I got his book. I never thought I’d enjoy a book about organizing so much! I’m in the process of moving in with my partner and Andrew's advice and tips for deciding what to keep (which I struggle with particularly!) and where things should live have been invaluable in helping us create an organized and clutter-free home together. I started the process mired in stress because of the sheer quantity of stuff and his disorganization and Andrew's methods have significantly reduced that stress and made the process actually somewhat fun! Thank you!"
"I just started listing to your audio book. I have a pile of organizing books—yours is the first one that actually inspired me to start. Here is a testimonial for you: I haven't lost my keys or wallet in two days! And I'm excited about putting them in their home. Note: it's not a new home, it's the same home they've had for 20 years. But now I am actually putting them in their place!"
