There is some shameful losing control, or leave for the day an unmistakable lack of overview. Perhaps that is why most people who have it messy, also feel guilty. Since a clean room is emerging as the way it is supposed to look like, is the mess a proof that it is a good distance between the way you want it to be and so it is – for the guests, but also for yourself, every time you kaver around and try to remember where you put the notes you need about ten minutes. Not that this has ever happened to me.
Maybe the guilt one of the reasons that many people who have never heard of the parents who rallied them to clean the room, now obey oppryddingseksperten Marie Kondo. Kondos bestseller “Magical cleaning” came in 2014, and recently was the series where she is a magical fairy for overmannede families, “tidying up with Marie Kondo”, posted on the Netflix.
Kondo has light voice and pikeaktig cardigan, but the conviction to a field marshal. She insists on a particular process skill out there you want to throw before you clean, and not clean rooms for the rooms, but the category of category. This is the only way you will see how much clothes or how many papers you actually have lying. Virtually all are certain shocked at the volume piling up. This is not irrelevant in a country like Norway, where the square meters space is expensive, but new things easily available. It is consuming easy to spontanbestille the skirt on Zalando for two glass of red wine. Not that this has ever happened to me.
Kondofrelste in bekjentskapskretsen swear now to her system to store things vertically, not on top of each other. They claim that they are become more aware of what they actually have. Might have success also with doing that Kondo believes that a subject should get you to feel the pleasure that it shall defend to keep. So is there a process to remind you that you are happy in your things rather than about the nagging notion that decent people put possessions in their back in place. And know where the space is.
Still something a bit disturbing when people who are too tidy. The human suit is not always nemt into boxes and shelves. In pop culture, it is often psykopatene who have spotless homes, be it in the Millennium trilogy or “silence of the lambs”. And then a smiling Kondo said in its series that you ideally should not have more than thirty books, came the reactions gushing. The eagerness to clear the can do that the inherent difference between the one owner is gone, and there were many who pointed out that boksamlingen their was not an aggregate of objects, but a map of your life.
Kondo yourself, in a nice piece of jiujitzu, replied that she always want people to know about the things they own awakens feelings in them, and that when many were angry over what she said, there was a feeling that would raise awareness of them about what it was important for them to own. But behind the mind was perhaps even a suppressed grief over that a tangible book has become a less significant subject than what it was a few years ago. And that they themselves have gone from looking at a book as holy to know a ubendig temptation to throw a eseløret paperback book in paper waste.
Not that it has ever happened to me.
