Peer pressure is key
Photo: Universal Pictures, Getty Images Three years ago, I took over a charming New York apartment full of other people’s crap: hundreds of old magazines dating back to 1996. A wardrobe full of XXL men’s coats. A cardboard box full of rolls of undeveloped film and mysterious cassettes with labels like “B-roll, Brooklyn Bridge, 2002.” I still get junk mail for six different tenants, some of whom haven’t lived here in a decade .
I’m not totally sure why we started calling it the Purge. In part, it was because of the hilariously titled Purge franchise , the horror movies about the one day each year on which citizens are allowed to murder each other. Also, we’d all recently become fascinated by Marie Kondo, the Japanese organizing consultant, and yet were skeptical of her premise that you should only keep an item if it “sparks joy.
2. Accept that purging is unpleasant. Marie Kondo really likes tidying up. She believes it possesses “life-changing magic.” But for many of us, cleaning is an unpleasant activity, arising out of frustration and a feeling that one has hit a breaking point, that one’s surroundings are untenable, and that a purge is the only way to restore order in a turbulent world. Embrace these negative feelings. Let them be your guide.
