I think, cleaning is the groundwork for making a garden. Taking the garbage out is not work for just anybody. When you are doing the work called cleaning, it is necessary to consider what posture you should take, where you begin from, where you finish and how far you advance in your work. You have to make a decision quickly while you work. The planning, the work, and the cleaning are all one set.
You will be able to learn the strategy for cleaning and understand the work.
The result will improve when the work is done from the best position and when you change your posture at your working place.

That's the reason why you are supposed to have a lot of tools, take care of them and make them a part of your own. To do your work, it is necessary to handle them just like your body.
The construction of a garden is not only by gardening shears. There is soil work, stone work, carpenter-work, plasterer-work and bamboo work, and the work on the garden trees. As a result, the finished garden is a space of original artistic beauty. We generally call these works "the expert craftsmanship". It is not the work that can be mastered in five or ten years. You need to encounter good works to be an excellent craftsman.

Everything begins with cleaning. Your future will be decided by the way you clean. I was often told that work would come in sight when you would be able to clean. The result comes from all your working postures.
