What kind of minimalist are you?

[@leepandi4373]

CKSPACE I’m a combination between eco and mindful minimalist. On a side note, thank you for sharing your knowledge. I absolutely enjoy your channel and I look forward to your videos. I have picked up so many good things from you & they have truly added value to my lifestyle. Thank you🌻

[@thegroove2000]

I just have what I need. Functional. The aesthetics aspect is subjective.

[@saranox7319]

I don’t like labels but I started out as a financial minimalist as you did and over time became an intentional minimalist and aesthetic minimalist. But imo they all intertwine I see my myself also as eco friendly and my goal is mindful minimalist. Peace of mind was my ultimate goal.

[@CKSPACE]

Thanks for the kind words, Anugrah! I'm happy that you enjoyed watching them and can help you out. That means a lot to me. Appreciate the support! 🙏

[@tejaswisreenivas9356]

I consider myself a digital minimalist. Except google account, I don't have any other social media account to stop myself from deviating. I watch youtube after my dinner for an hour and I sleep without any deviation from unnecessary things. I started practicing financial minimalism.

Thanks for the mention man! Great video 👍

[@BIEBERownMe]

The fact that I watch every single mininalist KZbinrs that you mentioned, yet haven't been able to repair the way I live, is such a wake up call. I've been putting a little effort here and there, but still not huge enough. I really need to change certain ways of how I live. Thank you for the video. Greetings from Indonesia 😊

[@YuniorGamboa]

I started being interested in minimalism for aesthetics only for a bit but then I notice the whole mindful and financial aspects and since then it has become an obsession. A good one at that

[@cmac2295]

I love how you always give credit to others for your inspiration ❤

[@HeidiDMD]

i think i relate with the essential minimalist the most. but i do collect BTS albums and cherish my clothes. with the clothes i am very intentional about the pieces i buy and make sure to purchase high quality materials so they last a long time. it could seem like that’s not “minimal”, but to me minimalism is removing the clutter and keeping what you take value in. so in this way, it is minimal to me. i think minimalism is different for everyone because we all have different interests!

[@iGwlbirdy]

I can see all the hard work that you put behind your videos, and I hope you know that it is very much appreciated.

Thank you so much for including me! I was intrigued to find what type of minimalist I was after seeing your video in my feed. Looks like I got my answer! 😂

[@CKSPACE]

😂 you're definitely a great inspiration!

[@victorialim]

So proud and glad to see that there are Singaporeans who are also finding meaning in life outside of material things and consumerism!! Honestly still hard to find a community in SG of people with the same values, so I hope your channel continues to inspire people to explore this lifestyle. Do you have any advice in that regard (ie communicating your values in a respectful and kind way to your peers who may not practice minimalism)? I also recommend “Zero waste vegan” as an example of an eco minimalist :)

[@CKSPACE]

Thanks for the support Victoria, always appreciate your comment! I'm also learning at the same time when it comes to communicating my values to people who are not familiar with minimalist lifestyle, I find that by practicing and being an example is the best way convey the value, but do take it lightly because we can never convince everyone to be on the same page.

[@victorialim]

100% agree, that’s something I’ve had to learn through my own vegan journey and will now have to apply it to minimalism as well. It’s just a lifestyle that is so great and kind to our mental clarity, wallet AND the planet that it’s hard not to want to spread it to everyone haha. Keep up the great work!

[@aeyb701]

Minimalism is a no-go for me. I can’t sit cross-legged on the floor.

[@hankthepigeon3348]

You can be a minimalist and have furniture lol

Owning less, only what you need... can still be stylish, have things of a certain aesthetic design, monitor one's carbon footprint... you are a good, young steward of this movement... as a minimalist of 38 yrs, you are much appreciated in understanding its wider scope intellectually, artistically, & spritually

[@CKSPACE]

Thanks for the nice comment!

[@rjnuzzi1648]

@@CKSPACE My minimalism is primarily about extreme portability... I move every 4-5 yrs... but I'm also an extreme modernist... so much of classic 20th design furniture is lighter weight, less cumbersome, need way less as each piece is a beautiful sculpture of sorts... Btw: I knew Keith Haring, Basquiat, & Kaws! Know you like the latter

Best thing for you to do is just move out of the house and stay with a friend or find a place of your own. You do not have to worry about family religions or traditions.

[@elipotter369]

I think I started reducing stuff after a friend told me how stressful and draining it was to clear the house of her mother in law after her sudden passing. A lot or older people are now decluttering, the Swedes call it death cleaning. I think that could be added to the types of minimalists..I also noticed that many younger people are helping their parents or grandparents to clear excess stuff, so the older person can cope better with dementia or being more prepared for moving into a care home, and less stuff for the younger people to have to sort after the person has passed. In the process of my clearing, I realised I had lots of unfinished projects, so streamlined that and acknowledged what I didn't want to finish and so got rid of. It has been going on with my shrinking stuff ever since.

[@justsayalhamdulillaah9720]

I used to have alot of useless stuff in my life. I would buy to fill in a void in myself. I found myself being controlled by it. Minimalism has given me so much freedom and control of self. Letting go has made me feel lighter yet fuller.

[@a.soundarya7043]

Financial and experiential minimalists attracted me most bcoz when u r financially free u can explore more and experience the world with no burdens

[@kaede_jing]

I started minimalism lifestyle to have a simple life, clearer mind, i think i should be mindful minimalist. Along my minimalism journey, few more types of minimalist get mixed in, they are asthetic minimalist and essential minimalist. Besides all these, I am finding the dressing style that suits my lifestyle and myself now. So i really make effort in minimalise my wardrobe, not only decluttering clothes but also replacing some with new clothes which suits me now. It applies to other things as well. I'm almost done with this. Happy with the progress. I think the expenses will be lower then. It is not difficult as I am not a impulsive buyer.

[@luavasconcelos1637]

Agreed. I am a mental health advocate and mindful minimalist.

[@TheEmzies]

I would put myself in the eco-minimalist category as wanting to reduce my overall consumption for environmental health was (and remains) a priority for me. However, I think I'm transitioning into a financial minimalist as I'm doing a low buy year and actively trying to save money.

[@DiaSa0901]

financial minimalism is my favorite because I prefer a person rich in the number of books that they read and how that books increase their lifestyle quality in general. I prefer this more than having a whole collection of brand clothes or a new car.

[@danishqaril8919]

I use to buy many fast fashion forward clothes from H&M, Topman and Zara. I stop buying them and sell the clothes at Carousell and buy only aesthetic clothes. I buy from COS for high end pieces.

[@rapharaanan5839]

I started minimalism for the main purpose of keeping my home simple. Now I am not working as much or constantly cleaning I am starting to realize that there are some hidden emotions that I never had noticed before. I been struggling mentally through my journey as a minimalist because I am discovering many emotions or frustration that I didn’t know was there.

[@CKSPACE]

Hi Raphaella, I think sometimes it's alright to take a step back in order for us to see clearly if a certain method or lifestyle is giving us value or putting more stress to us and we can alter the approach and method that can fit in to our lives. All the best to you and your journey!

[@rapharaanan5839]

Thank you! I appreciate your advices very much. Minimalism is for sure helping me in a mental way more than I ever thought it could. Today I even recorded a video on finding out that I was a victim of FGM and that’s something I been ignoring after finding out. But now I have more time to myself I definitely hear my thoughts and healing more than I have ever before

[@sassyslsgrl]

Mostly a mindful minimalist here, tho also see benefit in all the others in my life especially essential eco and aesthetic...

[@thegroove2000]

My Ipad is my primary course for book reading. I love it.

[@neutral3570]

I use my iPad for drawing so I bought an antiglare textured protective screen. And then someone tolde I could check out ebooks from the library. Turns out, the antiglare screen helps my eyes not to tire quickly so I've read 3 books last month. Who would have known that's all I needed? Best purchase ever.

[@majruby8063]

Started off with a mixture of essential-financial minimalist and realized I felt better mentally the less clutter I see :) so striving more for mindful minimalist :)

[@ftwjoseph7660]

The calloused / training/ military minimalist, sleep on the floor, wake up at 5 am, train the body with the body instead of gyms. The purpose of owning less is to avoid a luxurious comfortable lifestyle in order to callous their mind by learning to live with less. Examples: TrainingPal, or David Goggins.

[@WickWars101]

A bit from Several what ever serves me best in due fit, also an interesting one u could add to the list is time and space savers , as one can sort of be inclined to maximization - nothing to overboard as still have minimalist standards in mid , but if can store with well thought out way of doing so via time and space saveing , or one could even call it being refined as in a bit max and min reaching a a sort of sweet spot of things and balances , but most of all one should be there own self appointed govener in which is only a title , however if one is in alinement with the upkeep of polociys that determines how the liveing environmentmust operate , what i'm saying is one must embody the life style and maintain a concessness of it , to maintain flow of the environment , in which in a a way is a central burdon but if yr policys are good enough tried true and tested than one can be decentralized , as when i mess my room up its stiil looks and funtions in order

[@WickWars101]

also all of my policys trike down from the main modality of the room in which is = i base however my room evoles , on it being a work for it based enviroment , as in exampe i only have one small bin , so if i have to throw something out i have to work for it and walk to the bin as thisuits meas it promote heathy non lazy liveing habbits like it or not, but i like anyway now that ust to it , i sue i'm not ever change back , also because its an air tight small bin it fills up sooner rather than latter so i get to take it out sooner , as large bins get rotten quick and build up and get worse , so i take the small bin outside to release the air tight gases or when use - say out on balcony , however if this is inconvenient for one without a a backyard or balcony then even tho it hardly gets a chane to get rotten , i instead use a scoop of bi card soda as itsgot no balcony ,,,, so thats just one of countless work for itbased policys i live by and is not no longer a disiple but an effortless life habbit , and now a lifestyle , coundent be any happuer with how its become.

a work for it based environment its sort of like in the same 'Family as minimalisim so to speak.

i think what fits me the most is an essential minimalist, but not an essentialist. The minimalists gave a perfect example - if you love your 1000 books and you get use out of them then keep them ;D However, the longer i live this lifestyle the more extreme i want to go. I dont think i will anytime soon though..

[@stephaniecasper7578]

When you said “financial minimalist” I hoped you would mention Graham Stephan because that is exactly what he calls himself. It’s funny, because he doesn’t consider himself minimalist in the traditional sense, and yet he is the epitome of the financial branch of minimalism. On another note, I’m surprised you didn’t mention Shelbizzleee as the eco-minimalist, since she started the eco-minimalist movement.

[@user-xv1zr4ln7l]

My main motivation is found in the Bible, for example, "godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content." (1 Tim. 6:6-8) Jesus is my treasure. He satisfies my soul and gives me peace of mind. I can live with less and help some needy families. Less belongings make it easier for me to follow my God-given calling which takes me to live in new countries every few years. Instead of hoarding things, I spend money on learning languages which I need in order to fulfill my mission. They do not take space in my luggage.
