My apartment used to be a Mess!.. :( It didn't Reflect my Minimalistic Lifestyle at ALL!.. :(
Full of things I never used and that didn't make me Happy!
So I used the Konmari method, that I learned from the Book: "The life changing magic of tidying up" by Marie Kondó.
Here's my summary of the book:

in the book "The life changing magic of tidying up", Mare Kondó says:
"If you use the right method and concentrate your efforts on eliminating clutter thoroughly and completely within a short span of time, you’ll see instant results that will empower you to keep your space in order ever after"
Now let's get straigt to the method:
Step 1: Question why you want to tidy.
Step one is to question why you want to tidy, and then question the answer you give and then question the next answer and so on, until you arrive at the underlying reason, which is that you want to be happy. This will then fire up your motivation to begin tidying.
Step 2: Discard everything that doesn't bring you joy:
Step two is to discard everything that doesn't bring you joy, and it's important that you do this before organizing.
Start early in the morning, so your mind is sharp and tidy one category of things at a time, since this will make it easier to compare items, and thereby see what you should throw out.
Start with the category of items, where it is easiest for you to decide if you should throw stuff out, so you can improve your decision making skills until you get to the harder stuff.
Marie Kondó recommends tidying different categories in this order: clothing, books, papers, miscellaneous, mementos.
And to determine if you should throw something out or keep it you should ask yourself: "Does this item bring me joy?" And do this with all items until your are done and ready for the next step:
Step 3: Organize the remaining stuff:
Step three is to organize the remaining stuff.
Mare Kondó recommends the following 2 tips for organizing your things:
1 Sort everything by category, so you know exactly where everything belongs.
2 Place things you use often where you can easily access them.
That's all there is to it :) You can watch the video presentation of this here:
