How to clear out my life and make career decisions?

2 problems: 1. My home is always messy, washing up in bowl, clothes all over place, paperwork everywhere. I don't like to throw stuff away as have green principles, or think - I might need that old bill for future reference etc, old career details for future job changes etc. I spend all my time tidying yet never seem to acheive much. I've read all the declutter your life books, know u should do ';little and often'; for housework but still I cant change my ways %26amp; if I know people are going to visit I spend hours running around trying to clean, tidy %26amp; hide stuff. I want to be better organised %26amp; spend minimum time tidying but it whatever I throw away always seems to be the thing I need a few months later, %26amp; housework seems such a huge mountain to climb. 2. I'm very creative %26amp; want to change career, take new courses but procrastinate forever as cant choose whats best for me. I'm not getting any younger %26amp; want to improve my career %26amp; home life before I'm stuck 4 life. Help!!How to clear out my life and make career decisions?
you have the symptoms of being a 'pack rat' which is an OCD and a major procrastination problem that may worsen if you don't mend your ways through determinism on your own or by getting some professional help. i've had to deal with the identical problem in the past.How to clear out my life and make career decisions?
do some cleaning each day instead of all of it at once... i throw out bills that are more than 3 mos old.. pay them first of course..
