Our house was very tidy before, but we had closets crammed full of stuff. I lost track of how many bags we took to Goodwill or threw away. This week, I collected another bag to take to Goodwill. I also feel less inclined to buy new things. I went to Target the other day and only bought the one thing I went in for (which is unprecedented). I was watching CNBC, and they were talking about sales being down at various stores, and I wondered whether -- if not the result of Kon Mari specifically -- people are just tired of being overwhelmed by stuff.
Can't recommend it enough.
This is exactly how I feel as well! I also have so much more time now on my hands because I'm not spending my time buying stuff, storing stuff, and wrangling stuff. Stuff takes up a lot of physical and mental space and I didn't realize this until I simplified.
