Moving ranks up there with some pretty bad stuff.

I’ve read that it has the stress level of divorce or dealing with a death. Personally, I’ve had to help a lot of people move. I’ve helped friends, family and clients organize for a move. I’ve moved a number of times.

Perhaps experience helps take away the stress. Just knowing what to do when certainly has helped me.

Professional Organizer Bonnie Joy Dewkett is a former corporate relocation specialist. If you don’t know what to do when for a move, Bonnie has the answers in her book The Joyful Organizer’s Guide to a Joyful Move. I got to peruse her book and it has a ton of helpful checklists and information.

I googled this topic to see if I could indeed find a list of the most stressful things in life. I found a blog on that topic. If you want to join in on a discussion  jump in at 10 Most Stressful Things in Life.
