The only thing that is uncluttered in my life is my work area. My OCD requires that I keep the area with my work as uncluttered as possible so as to minimize the chance for error.
But as my life spun out of control a few months ago, I found myself in (among other things) a de-cluttering frenzy. I threw things away, sold them on eBay, bought organizing boxes and bins and shelves. There is no longer any open space on any wall of my study and every empty space is full of organized materials.
Next is to move the library and create a space for storage.
I honestly think it was that so standard as to be stereotypical desire to have control over one area of my life when I had control over so few others.
