5 Minimalist Habits That Made Me Rich

[@GabeBult]

How has minimalism helped you?

[@moenibus]

Real minimalism or the miserable life style you try to promote?

[@saveascreative]

@@moenibus what's "real" minimalism?

[@walklikeanegyptian5228]

It helped to prioritize my life well and enjoy the smallest details of life with my family.

[@jvan6582]

I’m interested in the minimalism, are there any good books or great/informative information an the lifestyle?

“Live a lifestyle that is by design and not by default.” This really hit home. ❤

[@TIEtorial]

"Don't sacrifice what you have for what you don't need." So good! contentment frees you up to enjoy what you already have instead of missing what is right in front of you.

[@MichaelMoscoso]

I went pretty hardcore on the minimalism. Sold everything I own except for 4 suitcases of stuff (for my whole family) and moved out of the country. Felt good getting rid of so much junk, now everything that I own has a purpose.

[@Danijanet]

How did you go about getting rid of mementos? I find that to be the one area where it’s most difficult to get rid of things

[@MichaelMoscoso]

@@Danijanet this may sound weird, but we divided mementos into two categories. High value and low value. Low value meaning things that give us a smile and bring back memories when we see them, and high value meaning an important part of our history, something we could never part with. We took the low value items and took good photos of them, sometimes video if it made sense. And the high value items we put into a couple of storage totes that we left at my parents house. I think it worked well for us, but might not for others.

[@marton349]

This. I have a house full of useless unused items we need to sell.

[@Carla369]

but you did it because of moving. You should keep the habit then hehe

By design and not by default - this guy is intelligent and very likeable in how he presents himself!

[@goldguilder9554]

Saving money while raising a baby is almost a miracle. A single bachelor can do extreme things like living out of a car and using gym membership for showers etc but living relatively “normally” and pull this off without resorting to charities like going to the food bank and eating in various soup kitchens doing it with dignity is a method I like in your approach

[@nicolesinclair5184]

"Don't sacrifice what you have for what you don't need"-- so true.

[@angelachanellehuang5663]

What the hell???

[@vimalou1]

The best quote I ever heard and my new mantra now : " Don't sacrifice what you have for what you don't need "

[@thehonesthiker]

The only thing I'd add, I agree to your point about a goal being short enough to not get discouraged, but I'd take that a step further and say just commit to doing it today. Then tomorrow, commit to doing it that day. The "one day at a time" mentality worked wonders for me. Solid video as always.

[@LoayAltal]

I agree. This is how I'm committing to the gym workout plan: just focusing on today! Keep it up!

[@imadabbas8694]

The best on KZbin in this era... Love your content, style and simplicity 👏👏👏

[@cathycooper7933]

I wouldn’t say I am a full minimalist, however I have always been good at understanding and accepting delayed gratification. This allowed me, on an average salary, to retire at 49. My income now in retirement is the same or better than my post tax/savings income when I was working and I’m good with that. I don’t need or want the latest handbags/shoes etc, and I live a much simpler life now… I loved hearing about essentialism from you, which I see as more of who I am. Thank you for your videos.

[@jessicarodriguez8946]

Concise, to the point, and actually helpful tips with change in mindset. The energy of your content shows how authentic you are, not a gimmick for views, but what you truly are living.

Thanks 🙏

[@juliemarkham4332]

The fact that you believed in something enough to try it for 90 days created a habit (formed in 21 days) for you in that area. It's not really tricking yourself if you believe in what you're doing. Kudos to finding what works for you! And - someone who works a FT job and takes time to do things on the side to better themselves is NOT lazy! Keep on keeping on!!

[@harryblack-maskers6913]

Habits don’t form in 21 days. Formation of a habit works off of two primary factors: 1. How difficult the action/proposed habit is, and 2. How often you repeat the habit (a habit will form twice as quickly if you do it twice a day).

We switched from a pellet stove and are saving a lot of money, plus our home is warmer. We go out once every few weeks, rather than every Friday. We are buying clothes only when we need them and buying from BJ'S rather than local grocery stores. I suppose we save a few hundred every other month. I work from home which saves a bunch of money. I work out at home...no gym fees. I'm not antisocial...just trying to be more efficient. I cut way back on sugar. We live quite comfortably on very little money. Daily I declutter half a dozen or so items because space makes the house look bigger.

Did you mean “to” a pellet stove? I have wondered about them…

For the past year, I haven’t worked (long story). I found I can do with about twelve items of clothing. It is soooo liberating. I have three colour standards to coordinate with; I have warm and cooler options. Twelve pieces. Saves on laundry too. I’m just… not into clothes.

Hi! I found your channel about a week ago, and am already making several changes in my life, inspired by your wisdom. Thankyou so much for your videos! This in turn will make a difference in the lives of hundreds of the poorest of the poor here in India where I live. This is my story in a nutshell: Seven years ago I was homeless, living in my car. I had lost everything in life. I got a job as a hotel housekeeper and was making barely enough to survive. I lived in coffee shops after work, since I had nowhere else to go. One day I was in a bookstore and I picked up a book about Mother Teresa and started reading. I thought, “Surely I can do something for those in India whom no one cares about!” I bought a plane ticket and flew to India for the first time, even though I was still homeless. I had only $55 in my pocket for my whole trip when I stepped into the airport. I traveled all across India, looking for where God would lead me to start. I got married to an Indian who also had no money, but shared the same goal of helping the poor. We now have a ministry serving about two hundred families of the homeless, beggars, and leper colonies of India. Could you recommend someone who could help me create a better website and youtube channel page for our ministry? God bless you!

Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money. A trader made over $350k in this recession influenced market

[@shirleneunglesbee1423]

Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are alot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.

[@gagnepaingilly]

The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my port-folio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.

Even trying to monetize your hobbies or small loves will always show someone their capabilities. So there is nothing wrong with trying. If one can find the game or challenge of selling oneself as fun then they can succeed in self making or self business.

The sugar!!! I didn’t cut sugar out but reduced the added sugars for a while and I can’t even eat anything with a lot of added sugar anymore because it makes my stomach hurt now. Crazy. I grew up on oreos. Now they make me cringe so much lol now I definitely dont drool over carrots but cutting sugar has been amazing. Also increase your water intake, drink at least 5-6 water bottles in a day. I did this after realizing I drank 1 bottle the previous day and it felt like I had an IV in. I didnt feel tired and I felt like a different person, no exaggeration.
