7-Day KonMari-Inspired Challenge For Beginners

Proponents of KonMari believe that keeping old papers and books is of little value. Sure, you can hold on to essentials like deeds, warranties, and birth certificates, but get rid of out-of-date bills and random papers.

Even book collections can be reassessed. Consider only keeping the books that make you happy, and entertain the idea of actually recycling or donating the rest. Odds are, you'll never again read most of your books, and right now, they're only taking up space and collecting dust.
