Читать книгу The Colors Of A Optimistic World - Logan J. Davisson - Страница 36

There are many different ways to declutter. A proven technique is the sorting of objects according to different categories. Colours can be used very well for this. Red stands for "can definitely go away", yellow means "can maybe go away" and everything that ends up in the green category "may stay". With this method you take one room after the other, empty it completely and then start sorting out or categorizing it. From the potted plant to the last sock, you pick up all the items in your hand and decide which categories they belong in. All items in the Green category can be returned after cleaning up the cleared room. You will notice that one or the other piece of furniture has also had its day - get rid of it! If possible, the items in the red category should be disposed of on the same day, so that they do not sneak back in and still find a dusty place. All properties in the yellow category are allowed to stay for 30 days in a place such as the cellar or attic. After this time you can consciously go through these items again and decide whether they belong to the green or red category. Most items will be in the red category after 30 days!
