I am not the best one to tell you how to be neat.
I find it hard to throw things away also. I was a child of the 30's & 40's.
Back then people just didn't have a lot of stuff.
I am still trying to put more order in my life.
A person has to fit in to the space that they have, so some things have to go. Find at least one thing every day that you really don't need any more & toss it. Clear an area of your room & don't put any thing there but that you really really want & need. If the area gets to crowded start over again, & again until every thing fits & is neat.

You've got to realize that it's just "stuff" and it truly doesn't matter in the bigger scheme of things. Make a couple of scrapbooks to hold your favorite concert tickets, movie stubs and pictures. Pack up a big box in the closet with some of your other favorite stuff and sell the rest.
Make some money on it or donate to Goodwill.(get the tax write-off) It will feel soooo good to get clean and organized.

I have kept many things that most people woulddn't have kept. I keep them in Plastic totes and store them away. At some point you have to be willing to part with some stuff!!
You will feel so free when you rid yourself of the clutter!
Goodluck!!

buy storage units a file cabinet and trash bags. throw unnecessary stuff away. I f you haven't used or needed it within six months let it go. U se the file cabinet for insurance papers, bank statements, tax papers, etc.
