I really like your tip to clean out your car. Having a clutter free environment is key to having a clutter free mind. If your ride into work is cluttered I'm sure your day will be as well. I also like your 90% rule but I have heard it before as the 80/20 rule. Same concept. Keep up your methodology to simplifying your life. What a great article.

I guess the first step is learning to say 'no.' You know, I never really realize how frazzled I am with a messy desk until I actually take the time to clean it up. It's amazing how much more organized and efficient I am when my desk is clean. Part of my problem is that it's so small, anything pretty much clutters it up. Perhaps I should look into getting a bigger desk. I really like you idea of the list. I love to-do lists because they help me visualize what I need to get done, but I find my biggest challenge with the lists is that I just throw them on there as they come to mind. I don't take the time to prioritize them and so I end up procrastinating on important stuff. So, for me, part of simplifying my life would be taking more time to prioritize.
