We're going to have a meeting, one of these days.



And now, a couple of suggestions that work for me:



As a world-class procrastinator, I suggest you set yourself a deadline date.  If I didn't do this for myself, I would *never* get anything done.  Having no deadline is just too open-ended.



Break the job down into small segments so that you will have a sense of accomplishment right away.  Give yourself a reward every now and then ("after I do one file cabinet, I'll have a treat").



Admire your cleaned out space; heck, take a picture of it if you want to.  Have your friends come over and show them how much stuff you got rid of.  You did all that work; someone should know about it.



Sometimes these work, sometimes they don't.
