Quotes by Rita Emmett (?)

“From my own experience, I realized that there are many other reasons we procrastinate, starting with fear.”
― Rita Emmett, The Procrastinator's Handbook: Mastering the Art of Doing It Now

“The more possessions you have, the more you have to make room for, take care of, protect, sometimes insure, and sometimes worry about losing them to theft, fire, or other catastrophes. Yet when you start to get rid of your unneeded possessions, you can rejoice in a newfound freedom, for you are no longer "owned" by all your possessions.”
― Rita Emmett, The Clutter-Busting Handbook: Clean It Up, Clear It Out, and Keep Your Life Clutter-Free
