Most people spend more than half of their time in their own housing 24 hours a day, excluding time to work and school.
Therefore, whether it is renting a house or living in your own home, you need to clean up with your heart and tidy up into what you like. In such a day, more than half of the time is happy.
The all-popular bestseller," The Magic of Tidying Up Your Life, shares many of the ways we can be taught to create our own "idealists."
This book is written by Japanese finisher Marie Kondo, who began to study finishing books in junior high school, and began to serve as a finishing consultant at the age of 18, creating her own "Mari Kei Finishing Magic", with rich practical experience, and the sales of finishing books have exceeded 8.5 million copies.
Her method of tidying up is very practical, as long as it is simple and simple 4 steps, she can create the home she wants.
A thousand readers, a thousand Hamlets. Everyone is different about their favorite housing style, some people like small fresh, some people like pink, some people like simple.......
All, the author suggests, before starting to tidy up, you should first determine what style you like, or: what is your ideal life, what kind of house do you want to live in?
After understanding your favorite style, you will have a direction to tidy up.
Like I especially like the home of the heroine of the Japanese drama "Nothing", empty and free. Therefore, I tidy up my room and move closer to the hostess's home.
If you are not sure about your favorite style, you can't think of what your ideal life is like. You can go to the Internet to find home photos, so that you can slowly know your favorite style.
Many people start to throw a lot of things after contacting the minimalist break, but after throwing and throwing, and then buying and buying, they can't really break away.
The main reason is that I didn't think clearly about why I had to give up.
Marie Kondo advises everyone not to start tidying up as soon as they find their ideal house, but before throwing things away, they should ask themselves a few more whys?
Why live in a room with few things and a neat fit?
Because of this environment, we can meditate and reduce stress, reduce the time to find things, clean the time, and improve our efficiency. And what hoarding can bring us is stress.
Why should the ground be as empty as possible?
Fewer obstacles, looks more empty, and reduces the feeling of pressure.
Think clearly in this way, and then throw things with your hands, so that you will not return to the original state after throwing.
Think clearly about your "ideal home" and you can start sorting it out.
When we usually clean up, we start according to the place. The author emphasizes that everyone must sort out the categories of items and get it done all at once.
Otherwise, if you pack up a little today, and clean up a little tomorrow, you will never be able to clean up.
In addition, the order of sorting things is also particularly important, for example, if you start with souvenirs, you can never finish the sorting.
So, in the book, the author gives the sorting order of categories that suits us.
Step 1: Start with the laundry
Clothing includes clothing, shoes and bags.
Put all the clothes in the house together, touch them one by one, leave your favorite heartbeat, throw away the unimpressive, and thank them for their company.
In this process, it will definitely be very difficult, but think that you can live an "ideal life" immediately, so be brave and throw away what you don't need and don't like!
Step2: Book collation
Hoarding books should be a habit of most people, and they feel that no matter what, books cannot be lost.
I also liked to hoard books before, and I was reluctant to lose a book I bought, and I had to be tired and half dead every time I moved.
After reading this book, I understood that the book was originally used to extract knowledge, not to collect. If you finish reading a book, make sure that you will not read it a second time, and put it in the house to occupy the place, it is better to give it to the right person and play its greatest value.
With this awareness, the books bought will be read in time, carefully absorb the essence of the book, and the reading effect is better than before.
Therefore, when dealing with books, everyone does not have to be embarrassed, leaving behind the heartbeat they need, and do not need to deal with it without moving.
step3: File small object arrangement
The method of organizing is the same as before, putting all the same items together.
Touch your hands, leaving the heartwarming, needed, unimpressed to throw away.
Step 4: Gift souvenir
Souvenirs are the hardest we can give up because they carry special feelings and meanings.
Life is forward-looking, sorting out souvenirs is to open a new life, giving up the souvenirs that are no longer moving, in order to say goodbye to the past and live a better life.
The friend who sent you souvenirs must also like you and hope that you have a better life. If throwing something can help us live better, then there is no need to have a mental burden, and it is brave to throw it.
After you have thrown away everything you don't need, you have to set a fixed placement position for the items. It will twist at first, but it is convenient to get used to it slowly.
There is no fixed position for putting things, and you can't find the key when you go out in the morning, how anxious? If you arrange a fixed position for the key, how convenient is it to go out every morning and take the key directly?
And the items are placed in a fixed position, and when cleaning, it is also much easier, and it can also be kept clean for a long time.
As soon as I got home, my home was refreshing and quiet, and the items were heartfelt. In the simple and clean kitchen, use your beloved tableware to make yourself a healthy dinner; sit at a big desk, light a small aromatherapy, soak a pot of cauliflower, read a book and chase a drama.
Spend every day that is thrilling and shining.
