Part 1 The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondō Summary"The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up" by Marie Kondo presents a unique approach to decluttering and organizing living spaces. Kondo, a professional organizing consultant from Japan, introduces the KonMari Method, which emphasizes tidying by category rather than location and focuses on keeping only those items that “spark joy” in your life. Key Concepts:The Joy Check: At the core of Kondo's method is the idea that you should only keep items that bring you joy. This encourages individuals to create a more meaningful and joyful living environment.Tidying by Category: Kondo suggests decluttering by specific categories: clothes, books, papers, komono (miscellaneous items), and sentimental items. Each category should be tackled in this order to simplify the process and prevent overwhelm.The Right Mindset: Kondo stresses the importance of having the right mindset towards decluttering. This involves respecting your belongings and understanding why you want to tidy up to foster a sense of gratitude for the items in your life.The Importance of a `Tidying Up` Day: Instead of doing small tidying sessions over time, Kondo advocates for a one-time, thorough tidying event. This allows individuals to see a complete transformation in their space, therefore motivating them to maintain a tidy home.Organizing Things Properly: Once decluttering is complete, Kondo provides advice on how to organize what you choose to keep. This includes storing items in a manner that makes them easily accessible and visible, enhancing the efficiency and aesthetics of the space.Mental Clarity and Life Transformation: Kondo believes that tidying up does more than just clean your space; it can also lead to mental clarity and emotional well-being. The process often prompts individuals to reflect on their values and priorities in life. Conclusion:"The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up" offers not only practical tips for decluttering but also a philosophy that encourages readers to lead a more intentional and joyful life. The book emphasizes the connection between our physical space and emotional state, making it a significant resource for anyone looking to simplify and enhance their personal environment.Part 2 The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up AuthorMarie Kondo is a Japanese organizing consultant, author, and television show host, best known for her unique approach to decluttering and tidying up.

Eager to learn how organizations can innovate their way out of a crisis? You may be surprised that the key to this comes from an arts organization.Tune into a special live recording of our podcast, with John Mangum, the executive director/CEO of the Houston Symphony, and Scott Sonenshein, the Henry Gardiner Symonds Professor of Management – Organizational Behavior at Rice Business. During the pandemic, the performing arts faced an especially grave challenge beyond the shared difficulties with other industries: an existential crisis over the relevance of arts in times of extreme hardship. Professor Scott Sonenshein, a New York Times bestselling author and expert on how employees can create organizational, social and personal change, led a multi-year study of two prominent orchestras (including the Houston Symphony), resulting in a surprising insight with far-reaching applications. Resourcefulness is not just helpful for surviving adversity. It's a strategic framework that enables organizations to become better versions of themselves.In this conversation, John and Scott reflect on how the Houston Symphony transformed their operations and performance delivery during the pandemic, and how business leaders facing disruptions can benefit from critical changes Scott's research uncovered.Following their conversation, musicians from the Houston Symphony perform Fanny Mendelssohn's String Quartet in E-flat major, illustrating the Symphony's commitment to diversity and exploration in music. Musicians:MuChen Hsieh '17, violinAmy Semes '19, violinWei Jiang, violaJeremy Kreutz '20, celloEpisode Guide: 00:36 Exploring resilience and innovation at the Houston Symphony05:16 Deep dive into Scott Sonenshein's research on organizational change10:42 The Houston Symphony's pandemic response and innovation26:30 Leadership, trust, and the future of the Houston Symphony37:26 Closing remarks40:16 Fanny Mendelssohn's String Quartet in E-flat major Owl Have You Know is a production of Rice Business and is produced by University FM.Episode Quotes:What made the Houston Symphony shine during the pandemic?15:48 [Scott Sonenshein]: When you got to see an organization that was relentless in determining to keep playing and keep the music going no matter what form that looked like, you saw a lot of innovation and creativity in finding ways not to just put online what they were doing before but to really reinvent what they were doing so it would be suitable for the format that they could play in. And that's why you saw a lot of the Zoom symphonies and the little boxes, but what the Houston Symphony did was bring musicians into the homes of their audience. And that created a lot of new experiences for their audience. What has the pandemic taught the the Houston Symphony are taking forward for the years to come?36:51 [John Mangum]:  [Music] It's one of the few spaces where you can go and really unplug and just be alone, and that is rare these days. And I think that the symphony is going to continue to scale great artistic heights and commission new works and support young composers and reflect the diversity and energy of our community.How did the pandemic pushed for the Houston symphony to think outside the box21:30 [John Mangum] Even when we had our largest possible audience during that pandemic season, there were only about 400 or 450 people in Jones Hall, which at the time sat 2,900. That was because households had to sit together and then be a certain distance from anyone who wasn't in their household—back to this bubble idea. We weren't under pressure to sell tickets, so that gave us the ability to program whatever we wanted. You didn't have to do a certain number of Beethoven symphonies, or Star Wars in concert, or the kind of things that sell tickets. So we could really explore all kinds of repertoire.Show Links: To Adapt During Crisis, Take a Lesson From JazzHouston SymphonyTranscriptGuest Profiles:John Mangum | LinkedInScott Sonenshein | LinkedInScott Sonenshein | Jones Graduate School of Business at Rice UniversityScott Sonenshein

This episode, I speak with Scott Sonenshein, the Henry Gardiner Symonds Professor of Management in the Jones Graduate School of Business at Rice University.  In our conversation, we talk about a recent paper he published in AMJ, with co-author, Kristen Nault, about organizational resilience.  The paper explores the different ways that firms approach adversity and how these approaches can lead to distinctly different outcomes.  We also discuss how resilience is best thought of as a verb and not a noun, and how leaders can prepare their organizations for adversity.   Sonenshein, S. & Nault, K.

Less is More. It means having just the essential things rather than having way too many unnecessary and distracting ones. It's true because having less allows you to put your focus on what matters most. It also goes to follow that spending more will bring you more is a false statement to some degree. In this episode, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros talk about resources, being resourceful, abundance, scarcity, and how you should balance it out for optimal growth and success in life.Book recommendation:Stretch by Scott Sonenshein https://www.scottsonenshein.com/stretch/What are you waiting for?

At the beginning of Dr. Seuss's The Lorax, the Once-ler says, “I meant no harm. I most truly did not. But I had to grow bigger. So bigger I got.” Biggering, it turns out, is the default setting for most of us. For years, Leidy Klotz, author of Subtract: The Untapped Science of Less, has studied how we transform things from how they are to how we want them to be. Both his research and the Once-ler's tale relay similar sentiments: we gravitate towards adding and systematically neglect subtracting. This remains true even when subtracting might add considerable value to our lives! On this episode of POTC, Yael and Leidy discuss the science supporting addition by subtraction. Listen to this episode today to learn how to be deliberate in your choices, subtract what's no longer serving you, and add value to your life in the process! Listen and Learn: Yael and Diana discuss the role of values and subtraction in their personal lives The values reinforcing Leidy's life journey to “less”The important distinction between “less” and “subtraction”What happens to subtraction options when we're under pressureWhy we tend to add when subtracting is the better optionPractical advice for being more deliberate in your choices Important differences between saying “no” and subtractingThe story behind Leidy's interdisciplinary approach to behavioral scienceEvidence based advice for subtracting in your personal lifeHow to be more deliberate about making subtractive changes at a global level Resources: Buy Leidy's book, Subtract: The Untapped Science of LessCheck out Leidy's experimental findings in his Nature paper, "People systematically overlook subtractive changes."Learn more about the KonMari Method Check out Dr. Seuss's book, The Lorax Attend Diana's Values-Rich Living Retreat! Grab your copy of all our favorite books at bookshop.org/shop/offtheclockpsych.Find out more from the co-hosts, Debbie, Diana, Yael, and Jill's by heading to their websites where you'll get access to their offerings, can sign up for their newsletters, buy their books, and more!  About Leidy Klotz Leidy Klotz, PhD, studies how we transform things from how they are to how we want them to be.

Scott Sonnenschein, Ph.D. is the Henry Gardner Simmons Professor of Management at Rice University, and a New York Times best-selling author whose books are translated into over 20 languages. Last year, he co-authored Joy at Work: Managing Your Professional Life with Marie Kondo. In this week's podcast, we discuss his book, Stretch: Unlock the Power of Less and Achieve More Than You Ever Imagined.  Scott never intended to be an academic, a professor, nor a writer. He studied economics and philosophy in college. In his senior year, Scott followed his siblings' example by applying and getting accepted to law school. Before he made his final decision Scott met with his University of Virginia mentor who asked him, “What appeals to you about going to law school?” Recalling that decisive moment, Scott shared, “I don't think we take enough time to reflect on our choices. We get into what we believe are socially prescribed pathways for what an acceptable career looks like. I was going down that lane. If it were not for his prodding, I would have gone to law school. I may have enjoyed it, but I doubt it. I'm glad he challenged me.” Scott went to England for a year-long graduate program which fueled his interests in research, organizational psychology, and the quality of people's day-to-day work experiences. He returned to his mentor, expressing his interest in further graduate school and he said, “No, first get a regular job and see how you like it.” Scott became a strategy consultant in Washington, DC. One year later, he received a call from a recruiter at a Silicon Valley startup. They offered him double his salary, a fancy title, a chance to manage people, and oversight of a seven-figure budget. Scott made the trip out there to check it out and three weeks later, he moved to Silicon Valley. In his book, Stretch, Scott calls actions such as this, a chaser, in which individuals or organizations see that more is always the answer to things; i.e. the more people we hire, the faster we grow, or the bigger we get, the better we're going to be. Scott learned that was not the case when the dot com bubble dried up. While he managed to survive four rounds of downsizing, Scott knew he needed a more solid plan. He was ready to go to graduate school. In this week's Work From The Inside Out podcast, learn more about Scott's  journey:   Scott holds a Ph.D. in organizational behavior from the University of Michigan, a master's in philosophy from the University of Cambridge, and a BA from the University of Virginia. His research, teaching, and speaking have helped fortune 500 executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals in technology, energy, healthcare, retail, education, banking, manufacturing, and nonprofits.

We often think the key to success and satisfaction is to get more: more money, time, and possessions; bigger budgets, job titles, and teams; and additional resources for our professional and personal goals. It turns out we're wrong. Using captivating stories to illustrate research in psychology and management, Rice University professor Scott Sonenshein examines why some people and organizations succeed with so little, while others fail with so much. People and organizations approach resources in two different ways: "chasing" and "stretching." When chasing, we exhaust ourselves in the pursuit of more. When stretching, we embrace the resources we already have. This frees us to find creative and productive ways to solve problems, innovate, and engage our work and lives more fully. Stretch: Unlock the Power of Less and Achieve More Than You Ever Imagined (HarperCollins, 2017) shows why everyone--from executives to entrepreneurs, professionals to parents, athletes to artists--performs better with constraints; why seeking too many resources undermines our work and well-being; and why even those with a lot benefit from making the most out of a little. Drawing from examples in business, education, sports, medicine, and history, Scott Sonenshein advocates a powerful framework of resourcefulness that allows anybody to work and live better.

There's a common belief that to be more successful we need more resources — that we should earn more money, acquire more resources, accomplish more, spend more time, and expand our network of people. But when we focus on chasing down additional resources rather than using those already at our disposal, we are rarely satisfied with our work, and may in fact be less successful in the long run. Instead, could it be possible to do more with less? In this week's episode of Psychologists Off the Clock, Debbie and Dr. Scott Sonenshein, author of Stretch and coauthor with Marie Kondo of Joy at Work, discuss the ideas of "chasing" and "stretching." Scott shares some practical wisdom for how to stretch in work and life. The conversation adds a whole new meaning to TLC's lyric “don't go chasing waterfalls!” Listen and Learn: How Debbie and Jill are trying to stretch in their personal lives How Scott Sonenshein, an expert in organizational psychology, applies principles from organizational psychology to other domains of life About a potential silver lining of the pandemic and our "new normal" (and Scott's practical advice for creating your own silver lining anytime!)

Opruimgoeroe Marie Kondo en professor Scott Sonenshein bundelen hun krachten en passen de wereldberoemde KonMari-methode aan voor de werkvloer. Zo kan iedereen opgeruimd aan het werk.Uitgeven door Lev. 2020Spreker(s): Eva Damen

“Does it Spark Joy?” That's the question professional organizer Marie Kondo made famous. She poses this question when clients need to decide whether to keep something or let it go. But there's much more to this exercise than just purging material things. It goes deeper into what a person truly NEEDS versus what they WANT. That same approach is used in Kondo's new book “Joy at Work: Organizing Your Professional Life” co-authored by organizational psychologist and researcher Scott Sonenshein. The timing of this book may seem strange when the COVID-19 crisis has forced many of us to work from home or led to job loss. But here's the twist, the book delves into, not only, organizing your physical and digital work space, but also provides useful tips on how to simplify your life by removing unnecessary distractions and discover what really inspires, motivates and sparks the joy in you. In this episode, May has a very meaningful talk with Scott Sonenshein about the book and beyond. 

David Kadavy, author and podcast host, joins us to explore ways we can design our work-life and productivity during quarantine and get the most out of our creative energy.

Opgeruimd! Op het werk.In deze bonusaflevering bespreken we het nieuwe boek van Marie Kondo en Scott Sonenshein. Ja, dit boek heeft Marie Kondo niet alleen geschreven, maar dus samen met een bekende organisatiepsycholoog. We hebben het boek beide met plezier gelezen en voor wie bang is voor een moeilijk geschreven boek, maar opgelucht adem halen. Het boek leest heerlijk makkelijk weg.In het boek staan een aantal stappen beschreven die je gaat zetten als je van je werkplek weer een fijne, opgeruimde plek wil maken. En eigenlijk juist niet alleen van je werkplek, maar juist ook van je gehele werkleven. Het staat vol met praktische tips en inspirerende voorbeelden.Stap 1:Je begint net als bij je huis met het visualiseren. In dit geval van je ideale werkplek. Alsof het een film is, beschrijf je je hoe je ideale werkdag eruit ziet. Dus echt helemaal voor je gaan zien hoe dat er dan uitziet. Wat doe je? Waar besteed je je tijd aan? Hoe is je werk/prive balans?Stap 2:Daarna komt de bekende: word je er blij van? Ja in een boek van Marie Kondo over opruimen zal deze vraag natuurlijk niet ontbreken. Does it Spark Joy? In dit geval pak je het bij je werkplek wel een beetje anders aan. Je kan blij worden van het item zelf, van het nut dat het item heeft of dat je het nodig hebt voor de toekomst. Iets zakelijker dus. Je kan nu eenmaal niet alles wegdoen waar je niet meteen blij van wordt, maar dat je wel nodig hebt om je werk te doen. Dat geldt natuurlijk in je huis eigenlijk ook.Leuk van het boek is dat er veel wordt onderbouwd met onderzoek en feiten. Anders dan Marie’s eerdere boeken is hier duidelijk een wetenschapper bij betrokken.Stap 3:Ruim op in categorieën. Nu deze kennen we en Marie gebruikt ook eigenlijk dezelfde categorieën als bij het opruimen van je huis. Anders is dat je dit keer niet met kleding begint. Maar bij categorie 2: Boeken. Dan papier, komono en als laatste sentimenteel.Stap 4:Heel leuk en nuttig is dat het boek verder gaat dan je spullen opruimen, maar juist ook veel aandacht besteed aan het opruimen van je digitale rommel. Scott schrijft deze hoofdstukken over het opruimen van je email, documenten en de apps op je telefoon. Details staan allemaal in het boek, heel helder uitgelegd en met een heel overzichtelijk systeem.Stap 5:Vervolgens gaat het boek nog dieper. Heerlijk. En is het tijd om nog meer op te ruimen, namelijk: je tijd, je keuzes en je beslissingen. Het boek daagt je echt uit om goed te kijken naar waar je nu mee bezig bent en wat je daarin kan optimaliseren en gewoon fijner maken voor jezelf.In deze rare corona tijd zijn veel van ons eigenlijk al vanzelf bezig met zelfreflectie. We worden ons bewust van wat je missen aan ons normale leven en ook wel wat we niet missen. Wil je daar nog dieper over nadenken, dan zijn deze hoofdstukken een absolute aanrader.Scott bespreekt daarin ook een aantal concepten die interessant zijn om te bekijken en waar je mogelijk zonder dat je je daarvan bewust van bent ook ingetrapt bent. Zoals de val van teveel willen verdienen, de val van multitasking, de val van urgentie.Highlights van het boek voor ons:Het kijkje in het leven van Marie Kondo. Marie Kondo’s leven is behoorlijk veranderd sinds het verschijnen van haar eerste boek. En ze geeft daar heel eerlijk een kijkje van in dit boek. Hoe haar leven is als moeder, als vrouw, als ondernemer. Een heel eerlijke kijk. Fijn om te zien dat ook de ogenschijnlijk perfecte Marie tegen dezelfde issues aanloopt als wij allemaal.Nog een highlight: de diepere inzichten. Door de samenwerking met Scott en de ruime levenservaring van Marie heeft het boek echt een diepere laag gekregen. Waar het ook zeker eerder in haar boeken was verwezen is nu nog duidelijker dat opruimen absoluut over meer gaat dan alleen je spullen uitzoeken. Het is echt een ontdekkingstocht naar jezelf.Try this at home:Zelfreflectie. Blij-analyse. Rustig voor gaan zitten en even noteren: wat zijn nou de dingen in je werk waar je heel blij van wordt, die je echt heel leuk vindt om te doen, die je inspireren, waar je energie van krijgt, waar je zin in hebt en wat zijn nou die dingen waar je minder blij van wordt in je werk. Alleen maar dat opmerken en noteren en daar hoef je dan niet meteen iets mee te doen. Maar daar alleen al naar kijken zal je een heleboel inzichten gaan geven.Bewaar helemaal niets op je bureau. Ga dus eens kijken wat er allemaal op je bureau ligt. Dus alles bekijken en alles wat je gebruikt voor werk moet een vaste plek krijgen in de kast of in je bureaulades. En alles wat je niet gebruikt of waar je niet meer blij van wordt, daar mag je afscheid van nemen.ContactWe vinden het heel leuk om van jullie te horen!

Het gaat niet alleen maar over het sorteren en opbergen in je huis, maar het gaat veel dieper. Ook niet over alleen over je werkplek, maar het gaat veel, veel dieper” -Camila“Het gaat wel echt over je werkleven en alles wat je daar kan opruimen. Maar stiekem gaat het natuurlijk over zoveel meer, net als bij het opruimen van je huis” -Didy“Ze omschrijft het ook als niet alleen je ideale werkplek, maar je ideale werkleven”. -Didy“Het gaat wel over bewust een keuze maken en niet zomaar chaos laten ontstaan” -Didy“Echt fijn dat dit boek wordt onderbouwd door wetenschappelijke feiten”. -Camila“Word je er meteen blij van, is het nuttig of voor toekomstig geluk” -Camila“Ik was heel blij dat ze een eenvoudig systeem introduceren (voor digitale rommel). Dat er niet een of ander mega systeem kwam met maak 20 mappen, met vijf kleuren en dan doe. Nou als ik dat alleen al lees dan kun je mij opvegen, dan doe ik niets meer”. -Didy“En in dit kader praat ze ook over mooie thema’s. Zoals de val van teveel willen verdienen, de val van multitasking, de val van urgentie. En ja dat zijn dingen die gewoon zo herkenbaar zijn” - Camila“Wat heel leuk is om te noemen in dit boek is dat Marie Kondo ook een echte, eerlijke kijk geeft in het haar eigen leven” -Didy“Een heel leuk stukje is dat hij (Scott) schrijft over e-mails en data en zij schrijft dan als je dingen/emails weggooit, bedank elk stuk data. Ja dat zou hij nooit zeggen”. -Camila“Ja dat stukje waarin ze zei: ook al heb je een hekel aan je werk: Ga opruimen!” -Camila“Ja we nemen er vaak niet de tijd voor, maar ga eens rustig kijken naar wat het nu is dat je ongelukkig maakt in je werk. Wat het dan ook is”. -Didy

Why do some succeed with so little, while others fail with so much? Scott Sonenshein, author of the book, Stretch: Unlock the Power of Less and Achieve More than You Ever Imagined, thinks it happens because we get caught up in a mindset of chasing. A Professor of Management at Rice University, Scott is also a strategy consultant for organizations in healthcare, education, manufacturing, and technology. Drawing on research from psychology and management, Scott makes a case for doing more with less, what he calls stretching with what you have -- and it is a far cry from being cheap or refusing ever to spend. In this interview, we talk about: How waiting for the perfect tool gives us an excuse to delay working on our goals Why chasing after resources can cause us to get caught up in destructive comparisons Looking beyond the conventional uses for a particular resource and why that matters How reflecting on scarcity can help us get more out of the resources we already have How a mindset and culture of ownership lets us solve problems more creatively How stretching with the resources we have is a skill we can teach and learn How a culture of belief in people to solve problems creatively makes all the difference Why stretching is a far cry from being cheap and more about being frugal Why more expertise, knowledge, and practice does not equal greater problem solving How we approach problems more narrowly when we look only for expertise How and why outsiders bring a fresh perspective to problem solving Ways we can cultivate an outsider perspective in ourselves How, when we overplan, we count on a world that may or may not exist Why, in turbulent environments, successful organizations are both fast and accurate The power of running lots of small experiments to learn How we can leap without looking by doing and gathering data without learning from it How sticking to our plans at any cost can work against our own best interests The creativity the comes from unthinkable combinations How stretching makes a difference in how we live our lives Links to Topics Mentioned in this Podcast @ScottSonenshein http://www.scottsonenshein.com/ Not Impossible by Mick Ebeling Ron Johnson If you enjoy the podcast, please rate and review it on iTunes - your ratings make all the difference.

My guest today is Scott Sonenshein, and we talk about his new book "Stretch." Scott and I discuss why chasing more resources often leads to failure, and why learning to stretch and use what you've got can give you a competitive advantage in business and in life. Scott then shares insights he’s gleaned from the world of business on how the stretching principle can help you achieve your personal goals. We then dig into the science of why constraints make us more creative and scrappy, why planning is overrated (and why you should put a premium on action), and why it’s so hard to stretch even though we intuitively know it comes with lots of benefits.

A groundbreaking approach to succeeding in business and life, using the science of resourcefulness We often think the key to success and satisfaction is to get more: more money, time, and possessions; bigger budgets, job titles, and teams; and additional resources for our professional and personal goals. It turns out we’re wrong.

STRETCH: UNLOCK THE POWER OF LESS, AND ACHIEVE MORE THAN YOU EVER IMAGINED by professor and management expert Scott Sonenshein explains how to get more out of what we already have.

How resourceful are you? When we harness the science of resourcefulness, we can achieve great things in our personal, professional, and financial lives.  How do we define success? For many people success means more; more money, more stuff, more employees. But that definition is wrong.   There are two approaches to resources; chasing and stretching. When we chase, we tire ourselves out going after more, more, more. If we stretch, we use the resources we already have available. Once we stop chasing and start stretching, we are better able to solve problems and innovate which means we are more fully engaged in our endeavors. Author Scott Sonenshein joins us to discuss his new book on resourcefulness. Scott Sonenshein is the Henry Gardiner Symonds Professor of Management at Rice University. His new book Strech: Unlock the Power of Less-and Achieve More Than You Ever Imagined gives us a new way to succeed in business and our lives by using the science of resourcefulness.   Full Article Here Show Notes scottsonenshein.com/book: Where you can find Scott's book.
