Who would you be if you felt at peace and had more time and money? An organized life enables you to have more freedom, less aggravation, better health, and to get more done.

Regina reveals her magic formula for organizing anything, plus her method to stop the chronic cycles of clutter, misplaced items, and lateness. Whether you're living in chaos or just looking for new ways to simplify, this essential book will help you get the whole household organized--and stay that way.
This book has changed my life already, and I've only been following it for a couple weeks! I know that may sound dramatic, but along with Regina's support and others via teleseminar, email, and Instant Messenger, I can already feel the benefits. A very interesting plan. Extremely well written.
The elimination, organizing, journaling, and dreamboarding is creating a new energy that I have not felt before. As I check off my list, I want to continue to do more. A must have for anyone!!!
I own over 30 Get Organized books and by far this is the 1 that has made it finally happen for me. The author is witty and straight forward. Organization Tasks are broken down into categories (i.e. kitchen, bedroom, etc.)and are assigned to you to do during a specific month of the year. However, where this book made a difference for me is each month is broken down into weeks, and each week we are given assignments to be completed that are not overwhelming ... just baby steps that are part of the huge overwhelming mess we have created by being unorganized. I highly recommend this book as it holds your hand and never allows you to have to decide "what am I going to do next". It takes the guess work out of organizing, and where my hiccups come in, is trying to decide where to start - well this book removes that by braking everything down for you. Very simple organizing education, it is like having your own personal organizer with you every step of the way, every day.
I've just started but already this is one of the best, most motivating organizing books I've found. My whole life I have been messy and I have tried many books. I started this plan in December and I am already seeing results! One Year to an Organized Life is really helpful because it explains why you got this way so you don't get stuck again. It's like having your own personal organizer right next to you! There are tons of tips but the book makes it easy breaking things down a week at a time. It takes you through all the rooms of your house from January to December, though you don't have to follow the plan in order. Regina will keep you on track and before you know it, you'll be organized.
