Marie Kondo explains Spark Joy

Marie Kondo, author of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying and Spark Joy, explains how to tell if an item really sparks joy.

This English voice does not spark joy in me :(

[OkashiiAmerican]

Marie Kondo: *energetic, bubbly, cute*
Voiceover Lady: *COMPLETELY DEAD INSIDE*

I love that Marie's principles can be applied to people cause that's literally why I'm watching this video. 🤣😂

[CiprianHanga]

0:34 me when I buy it
0:57 me when I get home and look at it again

Please don't use voiceovers. Just put on a subtitle instead.

When you voiceover another person speaking, you take away a lot of what they are saying: by removing their tone of voice, how fast they speak, how excited/calm/focused/whatever they sound... Especially Marie Kondo, which is such a beam of light in both how she acts and speaks.

[StoneSky]

Although it seems vain at first I found it quite poetic and philosophical. I would love to use spark joy as a lifestyle for my decisions, friends, jobs, possessions and much more.

The voiceover sounds like the hilariously flat voiceovers Rachel Weiss does in The Lobster

[kieranm]

Mugger: *holding gun to my head* “SPARK JOY RIGHT NOW OR YOU GET A BULLET”

Me: *crying*

[SonOfMeme]

I was waiting for the voiceover lady to deliver a deadpan "kyun", but I was disappointed.
Needless to say, this did not spark joy

[amylukenash]

I use this method all the time. Thanks Marie.

0:00 This one sparks joy

0:05 This one doesn't spark joy

I have full wall closet, 6 doors measurement for my working dresses, cocktail dresses, gowns, dating dresses and casual dresses. I know for sure that when I do this I'll keep only a handful of clothes and discard ton of them. It's a sign that I bought too many clothes when I felt empty.

[walterdennon]

I tried this. I had to dig all my clothes out of the dumpster afterward or I would have had nothing to wear.

[KrishnaKrishna-woxt]

I get that feeling only with new clothes.

[anthonyagonz__]

She's irresistibly cute!! She sparks me Joy!

[LaWendeltreppe]

I can't help myself but sth in that vid reminds of these safety instructions on airplanes. Maybe the voice. "In the unlikely event of a crash of the plane please take only items that spark joy with you..."

[intorpere]

What if I have depression? Should I throw away everything but my cannabis?

[christartist]

A pretty good idea. Does this method work on collectibles, too? Probably does.

[k.vn.k]

What happened if I don't feel anything? Neither joy nor unjoy.

[tabarkow]

None of my underpants spark joy. Shoud I stop use them?

[FuzzyAason]

What if it sparks sentimental thoughts? Do I keep it or not? It reminds me of the past... memories of my old friend.
