With the change of seasons, there is a change of clothes. The clothes from the previous season are put away, and those put away are brought out. While doing so, you find clothes you haven’t worn in a while, some of your favorites, and clothes that no longer fit you.

Marie Kondo, an organizing consultant, says that the first step to organizing is discarding . Instead of choosing items that should be thrown out, choosing what you absolutely need is the key point. However, the difficulty is to decide what to save or throw away. In her book, Ms. Kondo says when you feel difficult to decide, ask yourself, ‘Does it spark joy?’ If the item sparks joy, it must be necessary. She added, if you discard things that no longer spark joy, you can discover what interest you have and what really excites you.

Organizing not only makes your house clean, but also makes your life clean. If you agree, spark joy now, roll up your sleeves, and organize your house, humming joyfully.
