How to Declutter your home like Marie Condo

Marie Kondo established herself as a Japanese cleaning consultant who teaches the approach of organizing by category instead of room by room.  Kondo has a bestselling book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up.  The KonMari Method is pro organizer Marie Kondo’s minimalism inspired approach to tackling your stuff. There are six basic rules to get started 

1. Commit yourself to tidying up. 

2. Imagine your ideal lifestyle.

3. Finish discarding first. Before getting rid of items, sincerely thank each item for serving its purpose. 

4. Tidy by category, not location. 

5. Follow the right order.

6. Ask yourself if it sparks joy. 

And five categories to tackle : 

1. Clothes

2. Books

3. Papers

4. Miscellaneous Items

5. Sentimental Items. 

The main purpose of this method is to disregard items that lack value and help restructure the organization in your home. This method can be applied to your office space!  I have personally used her techniques and have had the ability to make space for my new clothes while still keeping my sentimental items.
