Step one for sorting any category involves gathering everything and all things from a category and dumping it into one pile. If you’ve seen her Netflix special or tried this out yourself, you know what this looks like: a shockingly large pile of clothes. This taps into our visual working memory. We decide when we’re faced with all of the decisions. We’re not relying on a memory of these items, they are quite literally in front of our faces as we serially decide on whether they get to stay or leave.
