Tidying should be done by category, not by location from "summary" of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo
When it comes to tidying up, it is important to approach it in a way that is efficient and effective. One key concept to keep in mind is that tidying should be done by category, not by location. This means that instead of going through your belongings room by room, you should gather items from the same category together and tackle them all at once. By tidying by category, you are able to see all of the items you have in a particular category and evaluate them as a whole. This allows you to make decisions about what to keep and what to discard based on how each item fits into your life and brings you joy. Tidying by category also helps to prevent the common pitfall of storing the same type of item in multiple locations. When you gather all items of a certain category together, you can easily see if you have duplicates or if there are items that are unnecessary. This can help streamline your belongings and make it easier to find what you need when you need it. Another benefit of tidying by category is that it helps you to develop a sense of what truly sparks joy in your life. By handling each item in a category and determining whether or not it brings you joy, you are able to create a living space that is filled only with things that make you happy.- By tidying by category, you are able to approach the process in a systematic and thoughtful way that leads to long-lasting results. It allows you to focus on the items themselves rather than the location they are stored in, helping you to create a clutter-free and joyful living environment.
