There are many people who keep up to 5 sets of dishes in the kitchen cabinet, and when they open the cabinet, they find it very cramped. There are people who, every time they go somewhere, see things that cost around 10,000 or 20,000, and immediately feel like they’re not worth much, they’re too cheap, so why bother? That’s why, over the years, the furniture in the house keeps multiplying without knowing the reason…
“Keep things in the house, keep trash in mind”.
Understanding that psychology, Lady Networking will help you synthesize 4 harmful mistakes but unfortunately they are very common in the article below:
Mistake 1: Cleaning by location
Clean the kitchen, clean the bedroom, clean the living room, office… This is the “fastest” way to clean it up very quickly…everything gets messy very quickly. It won’t be strange if you live in a house. The wardrobe area contains hair ties, machines, papers, books, and sometimes even snacks. A messy house is more important than keeping it clean and tidy. Reorganize the entire house so that it is as smart and simple as a map, so that even a 5 year old child can easily use it. The correct way to do it according to Konmari is to clean by category instead of by location. The order of those 5 categories are: clothes, books, documents, miscellaneous items and souvenirs. Once you clean out any category, there will be no more clutter in that category. The more you clean, the more clutter you will have. More energy and confidence about small winnings.
Mistake 2: Cleaning rationally
This is the biggest reason why customers, even though they have maintained the habit of cleaning and liquidating their wardrobes after 3 or 6 months… don’t know how many times in their lives, but sometimes they have to clean and re-clean both the wardrobe and the wardrobe. The whole house is overloaded, not enough space to store things or every morning standing in front of the wardrobe feels tired and has nothing to wear (despite continuous shopping).
Any item that you connect with it mentally first (keep it to pair with this item, just bought it last month and haven’t worn it yet, gave it to a relative, wear it when you go on a trip…) instead of connecting emotionally FIRST, the possibility is great…this is a hoarder item. The item is really unused but I will try to find a “very reasonable reason” to keep it. This is an extremely in-depth consulting level of Konmari and each customer always needs support from a consultant in their own way. The good news is that “cleaning properly” and “making love” are actually very similar. Anyone who knows how to love also knows how to clean up.
Mistake 3: Cleaning to be neat and clean
Sounds very strange, right? But if you talk to me, you will discover that the big problem is not in the messy house! The problem lies in the negative emotions associated with a messy house. The house only reflects your inner self and your life right now! So what you need to do is clean up the emotions and clutter in your mind, and reorganize your life through the furniture in the house. To effectively purify your belongings, you need to use intuition and body feeling instead of reason.
Mistake 4: Just hire a maid and you’re done
Tidying, if understood more specifically, includes cleaning and organizing. The maids can only help with cleaning. That’s why some families have 2-3 maids but still get annoyed by “chores” (not being able to find things when needed, the maid not doing things right…). And if you are still focusing too much on cleaning, the feeling of pleasure and comfort with the house will only last for a split second until it quickly becomes messy again due to daily activities. If you clean according to Konmari, housework will be reduced by up to 40%, and maintaining order will be easier because the house is organized. I even experienced the feeling of being “temporarily messy” but confident and completely calm, without being triggered by frustration or discomfort. It’s very different from the mess you used to know!
