Decluttering and Organizing: Pt 4. The Magic

Pt. 4: The magic effect of tidying up.

Tidying isn't just about cleaning up your room, it's life changing. In Marie Kondo's book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, she talks about how one of her client literally changed her way of life. "The lives of those who tidy thoroughly and completely, in a single shot, are without exception are dramatically altered" (Kondo 178). One of Kondo's clients had been messy all her life, but after trying Marie's methods, her life took a turn for the better. 

"One of the magical effects of tidying is confidence in your decision-making capacity" (Kondo 178). By getting rid of the things that you don't need, it strengthens your decision-making. It allows you to not be as attached to material objects, and useless memorabilia that you really don't need. 


Question:

What does your room look like? Is it very simplistic or is it filled with memorabilia?

  1. Hey Sarah!
    I found your post very interesting!
    Also,to answer your question my room isn't necessary filled with memorabilia but it isn't simplistic like white walls either. I would like to say mine is unique as would everyone. I hope that gives you input:) !
