The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying

I found this book interesting; it gave me new ways to think about tidying up my space/life.
The author's basic strategy would seem extreme to a lot of people (myself included), but given the basic East v West culture differences the more minimalist theories make sense.

I know I won't be putting the full strategy of the book into play any time soon (or ever), but there were definitely useful elements to be incorporated into creating a more personalized strategy for myself. I think the biggest thing that I can take out of the book is to be grateful and thankful for what you have, and be prepared to treat the things you have with respect even as their place in your life comes to an end. Things that have served their purpose in your life have as much value as things currently doing so. It just may be that the items value may be better served out of your home.
