I love this idea! I have a one-year-old and very little time and energy to declutter, but 5 minutes is definitely doable! I get discouraged when I attempt to organize & declutter because it's exhausting and overwhelming, but I think this is something that I can stick to. Thank you!

Did my first 5 minute declutter under my cooktop in a big box of gadgets. I decluttered a giant potato ricer, a small hand nut grinder, a duplicate bench scraper, a metal funnel, another kind of zig zag chopper. There’s much more in there but I stopped at 5 minutes like you said. I’m going to track my 5 a day in my habit tracker with a good star each day.

That's amazing!! Hope it's still going well for you!

@@lelaburris I’m doing a decluttering every day of 2024. This is rewarding! I have a friend who I send a before picture and an after picture. She’s supposed to say wow!, amazing!, and things like that. It has to be a friend who understands and also wants to declutter.

OMG I needed this video today! I’m going to declutter my closet drawers first: they’re driving me insane every morning.

[@lelaburris]

That’s a perfect place to start!

[@debmclean1355]

5 minutes!!! I usually do a 15 minute but like this as part of a daily routine. The kitchen counter is an area of frustration - taking 5 minutes will be a BIG improvement!

[@lelaburris]

Hope it helps! The 15 minutes is fantastic, definitely don't stop that if it's your regular routine. But 5 minutes will be really helpful on days you are really busy but still want to feel like you've stuck with your routine. ☺️

Did my drawer I just declutter not long ago and surprised how much it needed it again.

[@mrstn123]

Ok. I watched the whole video. Now I get it. I love this!!!

[@TheSviewer]

You can only effectively declutter, if you positively know WHAT you cannot use again, when you organise ( like an empty bottle).So, many things being reorganised in a room are related to possible uses of others there not being used presently.

[@justyna.1979]

I discovered this method a while ago, It works! I am amazed how much stuff I declutter in just 5 min:)

[@lelaburris]

So glad it worked for you!

[@mrstn123]

I have a kitchen gadget box ( which I never look in) under my cooktop. I’m going in for 5 minutes.

[@SheilaCainSample]

I like this! I’m going to try it but 🤔 I don’t know if my OCD will let me stop 😂 wish me luck.

[@lelaburris]

Totally get that. Maybe it would be helpful to have something else planned to do immediately after the 5 minutes? Try to stack it with something else you do every day so it becomes part of your routine.

[@SheilaCainSample]

@@lelaburris oh good idea! I’ll try that.

[@SheilaCainSample]

I tried it Lela and stopped after 5 minutes, it worked so well! I can’t wait till tomorrow! Thanks for this great tip.

[@lelaburris]

Yayyyyy!!!! So happy to hear this! That’s the way to keep you motivated. 🥰

[@mrstn123]

My brain thinks. Oh, I won’t get that space finished in 5 minutes. It will just pull all that out and it will be a big mess. How do you overcome that thinking?

[@lilascharmante2712]

Probably by putting back what you haven't had time to finish. You can continue the next time or allow yourself a longer time frame. If you are guessing that you need 15 minutes, then do that. Also, it is a declutter, not an organization 5 minutes

[@teresabaltazar2130]

You know there are pens that can be refillable….M♥️M of 5

[@lelaburris]

Thanks!

[@TheSviewer]

Realistically, you can't even think of which things to declutter and why in 5 minutes

[@lelaburris]

The list of 50 ideas is really helpful if you need it. Otherwise just work on a spot that annoyed you recently. A drawer that wouldn’t shut, a cabinet that something fell over in, a closet shelf that has things spilling over, etc. As this becomes a habit, you’ll be more aware of cluttered spaces in your home. 🥰
