From my experience with some Japanese people, I was very impressed by how many live very simply and don't have 'too much stuff' like Americans. It's easy to be weighed down by things. I wish to try her method and see if it could possibly work. I'm so glad that Airbnb allowed her to be an international presenter of a topic and to be able to speak in her own language, which also helps create community (others can learn about other cultures through a natural presence).
Before read her book I was following the minimalist philosophy. I had a few thing but I felt that it was missing something. After reading KonMarie method, I discovered the missing: I didn't love some of my few things! I did the process to all my house and now I feel much better. My possessions was reduced but I know that I really love what I have now.
I have read Marie's books and used her principles to tidy my t-shirts, etc. I love hearing her speak and am continuing to tidy up. I think that she is right, start first thing in the day and do the clothing first. I cannot imagine, right now, tidying photos! Brava, Marie!
Thank you for teaching me the way to let go things by saying thanks to the discarded. I feel releasing negative feelings by letting go of things that do not spark joy and also not feeling guilty when throwing things out is so important to me. I did not have a clue before. One thing that saddens me is that we all say thank you to our God, the creator first.
It’s sooooooo true.... I thought I had 20 skirts.... after collecting everything I count... 75. Thank you so much, Marie Kondo!! I am so decluttering my house!
I really want to say thank you to Marie you are adorable and precious and you spark joy inside of my heart that has been broken for so long by my clutter and more. I have this method in my head and in my heart ! I am beginning the tops and the bottoms today ! I am very very happy today for this gift. Blessings to you please keep sending your tips so I may stay close to ya!!! Annette
I've done my clothes one month ago and it's still organized. I did the books, documents and kitchen and I'm fascinated by the results. I have to do the komono part and it looks overwhelming. I hope I manage to finish!
I am feel stress mari, i think i should see doctor, but maybe the reason my life stress is my messy room, i will try your methode this monday i hope i get better.
Really interesting! I hadn't imagine there could exist a "tidying consultant"! LOL. It'd be great if it could be translated to Spanish so that I could share with my 2 aunts who are my fellows at hosting through Airbnb. ;-)
Oh wow! Ma c'era pure Marie Kondo! Non ci credoooo....!!! Ho fatto anche un Video sul suo metodo, applicato alla mia casa, dove adesso ospito. ...aiuto, se lei entrasse 24h prima degli ospiti e vedesse il casino che ho in giro... butterebbe anche me in uno dei suoi sacchi!! :-D ha ha ha Però non demordo, prima o poi "marikonderizzerò" tutta la casa senza pietà! Così poi.. basta perdere ore e ore per pulire e riordinare prima dell'accoglienza, diventa tutto più facile! :-)
She usually wears the same dress and white coat, but I think it's because she only keeps what sparks joy to her because she's a minimalist, so she must have only a couple of dresses and coats :)
She is not a minamilst , and she has said so. She possibly has a self made "uniform" for her public speaking work, like many of us do for our job. While her method is helpful to people who subscribe to a minamilst lifestyle, she herself does not consider herself a minamilst.
I guess her method is something like getting rid of what you stupidly are attached to but it's useless (that's why it doesn't spark joy in you) and keep what is truly necessary and makes you feel better. In the end, we only live once...
I was so happy to be able to see her in person! Her method has changed my life, literally.

I love her, she is absolutely adorable and her method is so wonderful

I love her. Very simple, yet charming. Doesn't need to wear colourful clothes or try too hard to be adorable. She's a natural
Did you get things for those people or simply give away your waste?

She sparks joy in me, can I keep her?
I've never heard her speak in english before... so sweet!

Ma-RI-É is great, and her techniques are really helpful.
So simple and yet so wise...
Wonderful! I love your book and it really is like magic. Truly life changing! THANK YOU.
I find the translator also very cute and adorable.
I’ve noticed that her method is actually really improving my decision making skills

Simple and powerful method, this is going to have a widespread and profound effect.

Her book has already been translated into Spanish, portuguese, french, and many other languages.

simply love .. I'm trying to use konmari method.. but it's very difficult with Indian clothes....
Punam Jain agree with you. Difficult with salwars et al!
Why?
Just stop your excuses. Or is stopping excuses too difficult with Indian mentality?
The translator looks very excited to translate Japanese.
i've been living in tokyo 40 years wife is japanese has more junk than can fit in our condo, can hardly fit in my stuff:-)
One of my best friends is Japanese and there isn't a centimeter of available counter space lol.
It's a common problem , thus konmari's popularity in Japan. Buy your wife the book!
