I was delighted to share my tips on how tidying affects your entire lifestyle when you follow the Marie Kondo method.
Here is an extract from my contribution below, but you can read the whole article here:
How to Use Marie Kondo’s KonMari Tidying Rules to Declutter Your Whole Life
“You get better attuned to what brings you joy and pleasure and stop accepting situations and relationships that don’t. The method helped me figure out what I wanted to do with my life, not just what I didn’t want.”
“Practicing the same criteria for relationships, work and social events as the one that you use for choosing what in your home makes you feel happy and gives you a sense of wellbeing.”
“Going through my books was when the penny dropped that I never wanted to open or buy another strategy, leadership, motivational book related to my previous career and that’s when I made my biggest life change.”
“The first step is recognizing what within your schedule does bring you joy, makes you happy, is something you really enjoy doing and brings you closer to your overall objective – how can you have more of that?”
“What is necessary but doesn’t bring you joy exactly and what would you love to change if you could? The solution and processes obviously depends totally on each different situation but at the heart of it is really noticing what you are doing, where you spend your time and how joyful you feel as a result.”
The new Netflix series ‘Sparking Joy with Marie Kondo’ is out now.
