Most importantly, though, she’s getting people off their feet and helping them to live much happier, healthier, and more organized lives.

She has written many books about tidying up and organization, and now even has her own TV show. Most importantly, though, she’s getting people off their feet and helping them to live much happier, healthier, and more organized lives.

All of this is possible thanks to the three keys to this method.

== 1. Everything has a purpose ==

Have you noticed how cluttered modern homes are? There are the seashells from that vacation you took ages ago with a few pebbles in the same jar. There are the flowers you got for that one special Valentine’s Day. There are endless rows of decorative items around the house, filling up space. Regardless of how sentimental you are, these items are just collecting dust.

It’s nice to have memories and collect memorabilia, but what’s the point when those things just end up making you feel claustrophobic? You don’t even notice how many useless things you have until you start cleaning up. You don’t even notice how much they suffocate you and make you feel unhappy.

Before you start organizing, you’ll have to declutter the space completely.

== 2. Organization is key ==

Where you store your things is very important. Nothing can lie around the apartment or house and collect dust; it needs to have its place. The problem with modern homes is that there is often not enough storage room, leading you to have a disorganized place and thus a cluttered mind. In these situations, it’s best to turn to DIY projects.

With a [https://www.plasticwholesale.com.au/ plastic sheet, tubes and rods], you’ll be able to create something fully functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. This is very important because you’ll have enough room to store anything you wish, but also because it will give you valuable insight into your household inventory.

As well as being able to see how much you’re going to store, you’ll also get to plan it. This way, you’ll be organizing in advance. In other words, you won’t give yourself the opportunity to hoard useless things and pile them around.

== 3. The way you put things away matters, too ==

The “how” of putting things away is just as important as the “where.” Organization would mean absolutely nothing if you didn’t fold and store your things the right way. Think of it this way: what’s the use of having sufficient storage space if you use it inefficiently? Marie Kondo has thought of everything. This is why the KonMari method is characteristic for its [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4j9Pkznay4 significant folding method].

Of course, this has to do primarily with clothes, as the first step to organization is organizing your closet. The items you want to keep should be folded in a filing system. Now we get to the core of the method and the one thing that separates it from conventional organization methods.

What makes the KonMari method so successful and efficient is the fact that clothes (and other household utilities) are filed according to category, not room. Take your closet, for example. Because your clothes will be organized by category, you’ll be able to save space, while finding what you need easily. You won’t have to spend ages in front of your closet anymore, as each type of clothing will have its place.

== Conclusion ==

Because of the popularity of the KonMari method, anyone can be a cleaning expert. You don’t have to succumb to the things you own and possess any longer. It’s true that happiness lies within, not in materialistic things, which probably explains why Marie Kondo has had so much success in her career. We’re confident your home will shine its brightest colours once you’ve implemented this new organization system and got things in order.
