Do you have too much stuff? Are you dare we say it "untidy"? Say hello to a TV show called "Tidying Up with Marie Kondo". A home improvement show based on her widely popular book The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up. In the show, Marie Kondo acts as a tiny garbage fairy for messy people, visiting their houses to share the wisdom of the "KonMari" method. This method is simple in theory but can be endlessly complex in practice. You divide all the stuff in your house – all of it – into several categories, and then examine each item -- all of them – to see if it sparks joy. If it does, you keep it. If it doesn't, you thank it, and neatly discard it.
你是否東西太多?你的房間是否,恕我們直言,“不太整潔”?歡迎收看電視節(jié)目《近藤麻理惠的整理秘訣》。這是一檔根據(jù)她廣受歡迎的著作《怦然心動的人生整理魔法》改編的家居環(huán)境改善節(jié)目。在節(jié)目中,近藤麻理惠扮演了一位身材嬌小的仙女,專為家里一團糟的嘉賓整理垃圾,走訪他們的家,分享“麻理惠”整理法則的智慧。這一法則理論上看似簡單,實踐起來卻可能變得非常復(fù)雜。你要把你家的所有東西——是所有東西——分成幾類,然后審視每一件東西——是每一件東西——看它是否還能給你帶來快樂。如果能,就留下。如果不能,對它說聲謝謝,然后干脆利落地把它丟掉。
So, is the TV show inspiring people to tidy up? Firsthand accounts seem to indicate a small wave of people bringing piles of donation bags to used good stores. One store received thousands of bags of used possessions in one day. January is usually the store's slow season for donations, because it's cold and people don't want to bother. But not this January. People seemed determined to clean up their homes. One used bookstore received a month's worth of books in donations in a week when a man gave over 50 boxes of books from his home. It seems Marie’s TV show is having a big impact after all.
那么,這個電視節(jié)目是否是在鼓勵大家保持整潔呢?一手資料顯示,該節(jié)目似乎催生了一小波把大批成袋捐贈物品送往舊貨商店的人。一家商店一天之內(nèi)就收到了數(shù)千袋舊物。一月份通常是該店接收捐贈物品的淡季,因為天氣冷,大家都嫌麻煩。但今年一月份不一樣。大家似乎已經(jīng)下定決心收拾收拾自己的家。還有一家二手書店一周之內(nèi)就收到了相當(dāng)于該店一個月的圖書捐贈,只因一名男子捐出了50多箱舊書。如此看來,麻理惠的電視節(jié)目似乎確實產(chǎn)生了很大影響。
