I'm a bit the same. Though, I can often walk around the hours with a small bag and pick up little bits that needs to go in the rubbish (particularly from DD1's room lol). It certainly couldn't be 40 bags for me personally but I'm doing a bit of reorganisation each day as a substitute.
Mmm. I can see how the 40-day part is the powerful part. I think Peter Walsh has a 31-day program online for organising, so you're getting 9 bonus days LOL. He says it's 10 mins per day, but I think that would be unrealistic, some days would take much longer.
