Procrastinators Get Stuff Done: How to Go from Overwhelmed to Finished by Dana K. White
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I pre-ordered the book, and I started with the bonuses available for pre-ordering. I have been using her five decluttering steps to work on large projects, and I came to the point where so much now is Maintenance and Consolidation. This book helps me understand how I can move forward better because she clarified the difference between Projects that have a finish and Maintenance which needs premade decisions to keep up with current tasks.
I began a shared project of scanning photos of ancestors and elder relatives in 2009 to be able to share. That project was completed to external hard drives and a website I used to share with family members, and that website went out of business. After I moved 9 years ago, that project morphed into scanning photos that had been framed but no longer fit on walls in the new house and photos that I had not put into albums. Both of those are finished and stored on external hard drives and clouds.
I have been scanning albums of photos taken with film in my personal collection because I need to consolidate from albums into space available on external hard drives or the cloud, and this is a PROJECT. While MAINTENANCE is needed to curate photos I take digitally and receive from texts.
I am often discouraged when technology changes, when websites for sharing close, and this book helps me know how to restart and pick back up to move forward.
I will re-read it, and I recommend it.
