Ever since I was first introduced to Marie Kondo's book and the KonMari Method I was enamored by the possibility of organizing my home (and my clients homes) once and for all.
Most of the time we start cleaning/organizing/decluttering by asking the question "What can we get rid of?"
What can we get rid of? When was the last time we used it? Do we have multiples? Do we really need it?
We focus on the "getting rid of" aspect.
The KonMari Method asks "What sparks joy?"
Does this spark joy in us? - This question focuses on the "keeping & fulfilling" aspect.
What would life feel like if everything in our home sparked joy? How amazing would it be to come home to that? And what would you do to keep that feeling?
Once you have the feeling of walking into a home where every object sparks joy, would you ever again tolerate objects that didn't spark joy?
Let's change the question from "what can we get rid of?" to "what sparks joy?"
