The start of every year brings about the writing of new year’s resolutions. This year, there’s a trend that’s literally sweeping the world by storm and making it into the resolution lists of countless.

That storm is Marie Kondo and her decluttering philosophy comes at an apt time, considering that many are looking to have a fresh start to the new year and spring cleaning is just round the corner.

Call me a Kon-vert ‘cos I’m inspired after just watching one episode of her new series. I probably won’t get far in decluttering because many items in the house don’t only belong to me after all.

In the office, I may look like I have a minimalist desk but over the years, I have accumulated quite a hotchpotch of items that should rightfully belong to the storeroom or trash.

2019 will be the year to tidy up my life and perhaps get rid of things that don’t spark joy in my life.
