The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up - The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing - A Comprehensive Summary
Chapter 1:
Kondo shares her personal experience
The basic principle of the KonMari Method is the thorough sorting of all the things in the home, disposing of or diminishing any mess, and lastly, choosing a spot to keep the remaining things organized. This one-time, exceptional cleaning method produces amazing results and will satisfy an individual so much that they will stay away from their indefinite future and avoid their old habits of disarray.
Simplicity in all things is emphasized throughout the book. Readers are encouraged not to blend or coordinate this method with other strategies (for example: FengShui, stream arranging, or cleaning methods custom-made for distinctive identity types). These are unnecessary if one uses the KonMari Method. All individuals with cleaning issues have one of two problems: they either fail to toss useless belongings, or have an inability to return things to their place; they may have a mix of the two issues. Since there are no complex reasons, a difficult planning of arrangements is not required.
On the mental level, the person who lives in disarray is often too attached to the past or the future. Hesitating to abandon things, because they might be required in the future, is seen as nervousness about what is to come. Hanging on to things because of nostalgia is seen as sticking to the past. Both attachments must be severed. A clean environment allows an individual to look at their perspective, without being distracted by the disarray around them.
