When you're trying to get your home organized, discarding or donating your clutter is an extremely important action that you most likely have to take. One of the easiest ways to begin getting organized is to lighten your load.

However, getting rid of things is often terribly difficult for most people--not physically, but emotionally. It's one of the greatest struggles for the millions of people who wish they were more organized.

The 'Live Out of the Box' Method can help. You see, if an item is constantly in your sight, your emotions may interfere with your decluttering process. You may think, 'Well, maybe I should hang onto it as I may need it someday.'

Whereas, if it was buried somewhere out of sight, you'd most likely never think of it again.

Get yourself a few very large boxes, choose the ONE room that currently bothers you the most and pack everything up -- except for bills that have to be paid and 'very' meaningful heirlooms or decorative items -- just as you would if you were moving.

Once you're done, everything should be completely packed up and in boxes. Put today's date on those boxes.

For the next three months, live out of the box. When you need or want something, pilfer it from the box, use it, and then that item receives 'OK to Keep' status--in other words, you can then put that item back in its appropriate closet, cabinet, drawer, countertop or shelf.

After the three months have gone by, whatever still remains in that box is donated, sold or dumped. After all, if you haven't needed it or thought about it in three months, what are the chances you'll ever think about it or need it again?

Yes, it will be a bit of a pain to live out of boxes--for that one room--but keep in mind that the things you really want and need in that room will be out of the box and in their appropriate homes within a few days.

This method may seem extreme, but sometimes big decluttering challenges call for big decluttering solutions.

No matter what your dog's problem behavior is, be it jumping, peeing in the house, aggression, pulling on the leash...or whatever, there is ONE SOLUTION that can help STOP this problem now.

The sad fact is, most dog trainers miss this solution entirely. They give you cookie cutting training programs. They use outdated, mean, and unkind dominance techniques. Or worse yet, they have no qualifications to be offering advice. So what's the answer to stopping your dog's behavioral problems? In 5 simple words...

Discovering your dog's hidden intelligence.

Let me explain. More intelligent dogs are better behaved. A more intelligent dog takes commands easier and understands what you need. The good news is, no matter how clever you think your dog is, you can unlock your pet's hidden intelligence quickly and easily.

Don't waste a second longer coping with problem behaviors you don't need to be dealing with. Visit this link to learn more about Brain Training for Dogs:
