I’ve been trying to declutter my clothes for a long time, but I always ended up just rearranging things instead of really reducing them.

This time I tried the KonMari method properly.

I took everything out of my closet and put it all on the bed so I could actually see how much I owned. That alone was a bit overwhelming.

Then I picked up each item one by one and asked myself if it sparked joy or if I actually used it. If the answer was no, I didn’t just put it back I made myself let it go.

What made this method different for me compared to just regular decluttering is that it forced decisions. I couldn’t just say maybe I’ll need this later.…
