Decluttering is a process, not a onetime event from "summary" of The Life-changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo
Decluttering is a process that requires time and effort, rather than a one-time event. It is not something that can be achieved overnight or in a single weekend. The process of decluttering involves carefully considering each item in your possession and deciding whether it sparks joy in your life. By approaching decluttering as a process, you can gradually work through your belongings and make more thoughtful decisions about what to keep and what to discard. One of the key principles of decluttering is to focus on what you want to keep, rather than what you want to get rid of. This shift in mindset can help you make more intentional choices about the items you surround yourself with. By focusing on the things that bring you joy, you can create a living space that truly reflects your values and priorities. Another important aspect of decluttering as a process is the need to revisit your belongings regularly. As time goes on, new items may enter your life, and old items may lose their significance. By periodically reassessing your belongings, you can ensure that your living space remains clutter-free and in line with your current needs and preferences. Decluttering is not just about getting rid of things; it is also about creating a space that supports your well-being and happiness. By approaching decluttering as a process, you can gradually transform your living environment into a place that brings you joy and peace. Remember that decluttering is a journey, and it is okay to take your time and proceed at your own pace. By embracing the process of decluttering, you can create a home that truly nourishes your soul.
