Mori Keep or Let Go

One thing a day, one question

Too much stuff, and hard to part with any of it? Pick up one thing a day: keep it, let it go, or let it nap for 30 days. It counts once it's out the door. No streaks.

Leaf through it

  1. One thing a day, one question. Keep it, let it go, or let it nap. A name is optional.
  2. Let go means out the door. What you let go waits in a door bag. Once it's gone, it gets an OUT stamp.
  3. Not sure? Let it nap 30 days. The day it wakes, one question: did you think of it?
  4. A whole drawer in one go. Take photos in a row, then turn through. When the spot is cleared, stamp it.
  5. One month, one branch. No streaks, nothing to break. A day you skip stays an empty node.
  6. Thought of it? Note it. One line, one thing. "×8" counts as eight. Pick it up one day, then take its photo.
  7. Hard to decide? Ask three things. Used it this year? Would you buy it again? Only a suggestion. You decide.
  8. Free. No ads. No data collected. Only on your iPhone and your own iCloud. Save a backup to take with you.

What hangs on the branch

  • One thing a day, one question

    No cataloguing your home first. A thing only comes in when you pick it up and take its photo; it becomes a little sticker on this month's branch, and a name is optional. Keep it, let it go, or let it nap. You decide.

  • Let go means out the door

    What you let go waits in a door bag first: give, sell, donate, recycle or throw away, a bag for each. Once it's delivered or gone, it gets an OUT stamp and falls as one of this month's leaves.

  • Not sure? Let it nap

    The nap box keeps it for 30 days (or 90). On the day it wakes, one question: did you think of it?

  • One spot in one go

    A drawer, a shelf: take photos one after another, then turn through them. When the spot is cleared, stamp it.

  • Thought of something? Write a line

    For what isn’t at hand or is too big to photograph. Write “×8” and it counts as eight.

  • Hard to decide? Ask yourself three things

    Have you used it this year? Is it still in good shape? Would you buy it again today? Only a suggestion: the decision is yours.

  • A month is one branch

    No streaks, nothing to break. A day you skip simply stays an empty node.

  • Free. No ads. No data collected.

    Everything stays on your iPhone and in your own iCloud. Save a backup, or export a list.

Mori Keep or Let Go is the second of the Mori Tools, after Mori Notes. Both are made by the same small studio as MononoMori and set in the same forest.
