One way to declutter, perhaps with some investment is to peruse the ikeahacker instructables for IKEA hacks.

Honey, I Wrecked the Kids: a guide to democratic parenting - Boing Boing

Honey, I Wrecked the Kids: a guide to democratic parenting - Boing Boing

Linda Stone recently handed me a copy of Honey, I Wrecked the Kids: When Yelling, Screaming, Threats, Bribes, Time-outs, Sticker Charts and Removing Privileges All Don't Work, a 2009 book by Adlerian family therapist Alyson Schafer.

Honey, I Wrecked the Kids is a book about parenting without bribes or punishments. Schafer says that training kids to respond to either form of coercion puts them at risk of growing up to be pushovers or bullies, and suggests that the real trick to happy parenting is to find ways of working with your kids that get them to want to "behave" at home and school.

What Hidden Emotional Anchors are Holding You Back? | Work Happy Now!

Great stuff here:

Create a plan you can emotionally invest in.

You can wallow in sadness, or you can create a plan of action that will focus your energy. You have to create a plan that will pull your emotions toward action. If you can’t get excited about the next plan then you will stay stuck.

I'm reminded of Negativland today, thanks to this article in metafilter about the history of the fallout shelter which actually pointed to this spot ad for radio.

Soul Shelter » Ghosts Are My Teachers - the meanings of pilgrimage. Particularly back to Walden Pond, and to read the last writings of Thoreau in his own handwriting.
