Declutter Like a Man: A Tactical Guide to Reset Your Space, Mind, and Life in 30 Days

by Mason Cross

Take back your space. Take back your time. Take back your focus.

Declutter Like a Man is the A Tactical Guide for guys who are tired of living in chaos and ready to reset their space and their life — without color-coded bins or folding socks into origami. If you’ve ever walked into a room and instantly felt behind, this book is for you.

Written specifically for men who value clarity, speed, and action, this isn’t about minimalism or aesthetics. It’s about building a space that works. From your garage to your desktop, your routines to your mental bandwidth — every chapter is designed to reset what’s slowing you down.

Kill clutter in the rooms that stress you out most

Clean your digital life without deleting your personality

Create daily resets that take under 5 minutes

Eliminate the “mental tabs” that drain your focus

Build a system that survives busy seasons, not just quiet weekends
