Hi Tracy - Welcome to the blog. I'm intrigued by your statement - about doing the things we need to do every day. I think that most people are not taught to understand the benefits of cleaning up and organizing. It shouldn't be this way - we should have learned it in school or from our parents I suppose, but a program at least makes it sound official and not just nagging - like picking up your room when you were a kid. Do you think we could teach these things in a different way?
