Simple, Clean & Organized. These are three words in my mind now. Yes, I like my home simple, clean and organized, but shortly I felt my home is back to messy and clutter. Thanks for the interesting book I’ve read 2 weeks ago, it inspire and change the way I want to tidy up now. So instead just going through my stuff, wipe the dust, and put in back in place. I follow 6 basic rules of tidying from “Konmari” method and set myself a new system to clean and organized my home.
6 basic rules of tidying:
1- Commit yourself to tidying up. Well, once you start, don’t give up in the middle. Like she said it’s a marathon, got to finish till the end.
2- Imagine your ideal lifestyle. Visualize myself living in clutter-free, clean and tidy space. I inspire the Japanese style, they are simple yet functional. It is my dream, my ideal lifestyle I want to be in. …show more content…
Discard things that no longer useful before store everything back.
4- Tidy by category, not by location. We tend to put same item in different places, a very good example I have is my makeup product, I’ve got some in the washroom and some in my own room, if I tidy by location, I will be cleaning same category twice.
5- Follow the Right Order. Start with clothing, then books, paper and miscellaneous.
6- Ask yourself if it spark joy. Keep the one you love, and if you don’t love them, they no longer “spark joy” to yourself.

So my declutter campaign began. I started with my closet, put all my clothes on my bed, and sort out category by category. I kept the essential clothes and clothes that I love to wear and makes me happy. I put all the unfit, wore out, not my style, and never want to wear item to a donation bag. I’m happy that my mountains of clothes has become a hill now, and I like to share what I had kept now.
