9/23(Sat) The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up (Alicia)
發表於 : 週一 9月 18, 2017 12:02 am
Have you ever heard of Kondo Marie, the lifestyle/cleaning guru? She's listed as one of Time's "100 most influential people" in 2015. I know Japanese are tend to be obsessed with making things organized. But, I am surprised that so many Americans and Europeans love Kondo Marie's method. Even Google Inc. invited her to give a lecture.
The following is the article that you can know her quickly from where she started till what she's doing now.

DISCUSSION:
Session 1
1. Have you ever read the book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, written by Kondo Marie ? (There is also a Chinese version. The title is 怦然心動的人生整理魔法.) If yes, do you think it's helpful to you and your life? What impressed you most? If not, do you think you need a declutter guidebook? Why or why not?
2.Is making home/room/desk decluttered and organized important to you? What's your tip to make the place under your control? What is the most difficult part to you when tidying up?
*add-on question: do you believe tidying up can change you or someone's life?
Session 2
1.Since everyone uses mobile phone and computer every day, do you struggle with exploding data? Would you like to share how you organize your files, photos, apps/software?
2.Unlike Minimalism, KonMari method doesn't ask you to throw most stuffs. It encourages you only keeping things that spark joy to you. What is the stuff which always sparks joy to you in your house? Why?
*add-on question:
Before Kondo Marie became such a successful organizing consultant, she had been considered as a freak by her parents and teachers. . Do you know some celebrities like her that started without others' confidence and turned out successfully?
