Minimalism(2)-Tips

2021 Jun. 23 am11:38

為了進行極簡練習，我搜尋了很多文章，並且把我認為可能對自己有效的小撇步記錄下來：
To do this practice, I read a lot of articals and I found some tips may be useful for me.

一、將所有的物品分為三類：
ONE / Put all my items into 3 boxes:

1. 捨棄的
我開了一個IG帳號想記錄捨棄1000件物品的過程，以及留下我對他們的記憶和連結，但後來我放棄了，因為這樣花我太多時間，而且我也不是一個真的這麼感性的人(笑)。
1. To give up box:
Actually I create an instagram account to list all this stuff. I tried to record the item and the relationship between me and the item. But I gave up, cause I found that cost me too much time and it turned out I am not an emotional person. XD

2. 想留下的:
把因為喜歡而留下的東西分開來放，定時拿出來確認是否喜歡。
把因為記憶而留下的東西分開來放。
2. Want to keep box:
Check why I want to keep it, and if it’s because I like it then reconfirm whether I still like it every time I organize my staff. If it is because of some memories, then see if this is the only way to cherish the memories, and whether I really cherish these memories.

3. 留下的：
清點我所擁有的東西，試著寫下為甚麼我需要這個東西。
同時寫下想要的清單：腳踏車、潛水整套。
3. To keep box:
List all the staff I “need” to keep, and try to write down why I need it.
Write down the “wish list” at the same time. For me, there are: bicycle/Diving equipment.

二、可以丟掉的東西
TWO / The things can directly go to the garbage can.

1. 壞掉的東西：手錶、電池
   Broken item: watch, battery.
2. 過期的東西：化妝品、coupon
   Expired stuff: make up, coupon.
3. 沒有得搭配的衣物
   No matching clothes.
4. 我想留下，但數量龐大，縮減。->衣服、娃娃、書
   The stuff I want to keep but too many->cut down->Clothes, doll, books.
5. 太多的銀行帳戶
   Too many bank accounts.
6. 無用的社群足跡
   Useless social media record.

三、五個問題確認是否需要物品
THREE / Five questions ask myself to check whether I need the stuff or not.

1. 如果有人願意買，你就願意賣的話，表示你不需要。
   If someone is willing to buy, you are willing to sell, it means you don’t need it.
2. 假設你現在沒有，下次看到是否會買回來？
   Assuming you don’t have one now, will you buy it next time you see it?
3. 如果現在有人要跟你借，而且借一陣子也OK的話，那就不是很需要。
   If someone wants to borrow from you now, and it’s OK to borrow for a while, then it’s not very necessary.
4. 如果你懶得清潔和維護，不太重要。
   If you are too lazy to keep it clean and good, then you do not need it.
5. 不會想推薦給親朋好友的物品。
   Items that I don’t want to recommend to friends and family.
