Two drawers.
The KonMarie method is sweeping out things and thinking. Everyone is writing about her. She is being hailed as the newest self-help guru. The BBC author who writes about her so powerfully hasn’t read her latest book tho. What she suggests is that the tidying does is enable us to see ourselves clearly. That’s it.
The New York Times quotes her as saying, “Tidying wasn’t just a function of your physical space; it was a function of your soul.”
I tidied a drawer, and a few days later another. She says we must get through this fast…with great speed. I’m still sick and slow, very slow, but absolutely delighted with my drawers. Yesterday I got down on the floor and did the scarf drawer. I’m just as charmed by the tidiness I created as by the fact I got up off the floor.
I thought I would start with the shirt section of my closet today, and I got one rod tidied. I only took one red linen shirt back because it gave me great joy.
