“I’m sure most of us have been scolded for not tidying up our rooms, but how many of our parents consciously taught us how to tidy as part of our upbringing?”

A joy-filled home is like your own personal art museum

There is no need to buy dividers or any other gadget. You can solve your storage problems with things you already have in the house. The most common item I use is an empty shoebox.

If you live with your family, first clearly define separate storage spaces for each family member.

The real tragedy is to live your entire life without anything that brings you joy and never even realize it.

Letting go is even more important than adding.

Believe what your heart tells you when you ask, Does this spark joy?

Tidying your physical space allows you to tend to your psychological space.

Although we can get to know ourselves better by sitting down and analyzing our characteristics or by listening to others’ perspectives on us, I believe that tidying is the best way.

A person’s awareness and perspective on his or her own lifestyle are far more important than any skill at sorting, storing, or whatever.

It is only when you put your house in order that your furniture and decorations come to life.

I begin my course with these words: Tidying is a special event. Don’t do it every day.

Activity clutter comes from the things we do that take up precious time and sap our energy but don’t make a meaningful difference to our personal, professional, or even company’s mission.

The essence of effective storage is this: designate a spot for every last thing you own.

Being surrounded by things that bring joy makes you happy

Cherish the things you love. Cherish yourself.

To quietly work away at disposing of your own excess is actually the best way of dealing with a family that doesn’t tidy.

Be assured that there is no sin you have ever committed that the blood of Jesus Christ cannot cleanse.

You are not downgrading. Your slate is being cleaned for the next scene.

Write clean and dirty.

Sage is cleansing and sacred.

God doesn’t seek for golden vessels, and does not ask for silver ones, but He must have clean ones.

You don’t have to bathe every day to look clean. It’s just an illusion.

The philosophy has always been pretty clean and straightforward, which is that if I see something that I like and I can see it’s value to the audience and it’s value to me then I’m going to take my shot at it regardless at the genre.

Before you start pointing fingers, make sure your hands are clean.
