I found time! I made time! I was suffering from severe anxiety and depression...I'd shop for things I didnt need..then felt guilty as I could not return them because I already lost or threw out the reciept...but one day...It clicked! I started decluttering to the max...a year later and im almost to my point of feeling complete. Depression...GONE! Anxiety...BETTER! My minimizing journey and you along with others have saved my life! My sanity!

It’s crazy how that actually works! To clear things out. I remember with my first baby I was living with my mom and the baby came early, so I had him sleep in a bassinet stroller in my room. And I was getting so overwhelmed in keeping everything decent looking in that tiny room. I took the stroller out and all of a sudden is like I could BREATHE. It was giving me anxiety to have it crowded in there, without even realizing it

I was focusing on removing things like Marie Condo and realized that I was adding to the landfill as many many items didn’t spark joy. Guess what, all possessions don’t. I have space so I keep necessary items and use it. I wear all my clothes that I keep, use all pot and pans even if they don’t spark joy instead of buying items that do. I stopped buying, repurposed things, reused what I could as many times as I could and use all ingredients I buy, or freeze those I cannot use immediately till I can.

I always have decluttering on the back of my mind. So every time I'm sitting in a room I look around and think about the stuff. I may not pick anything up, but I make up my mind by the next time I sit by that area. Then I move the objects. I've been on the journey since March and we have cleared sooo much stuff. Not yet complete but definitely have made a noticeable change. We are loving it! I utilise a childcare day so I can do it. I remind myself that in the future I will have more spare time as less to maintain so it's worth it. Delegating is key. ❣

I like to cultivate entertainment sources (podcasts, youtube vids, etc.) that I can listen to rather than watch. So a good chunk of my "watch time" is actually providing background entertainment while my hands and eyes are busy elsewhere, cleaning, decluttering, etc. HIstory documentaries are great for this, as the visuals are often extraneous to the core content. Bonus, doing the dishes and sorting through old clothes comes with some passively acquired education. And I don't even need to set a timer for piecemeal projects, since the video length provides one.

Good and inspiring..i m a minimalist basically even before i got introduced to this word or idea..i m not a impulsive buyer ..always plan before buying..and if i like something very much in market atleast wait for some minutes and think do i really need or like it..will it serve some purpose for long time in my house or just make me busy in its maintenance..luv to spend quality time with family and likes to go to new places for vacation with family.. Whenever i get some spare time i utlilise that time in decluttering and donate things ..but still i feel and believe in a proverb from my area .extreme of anything is bad.. Some things hav emotional value..and that value can be different for different persons in family..so in absence of other family members i never decide abt their stuff or common stuff to donate..always first ask them if they are comfortable if i can donate those things..if they say no i just tell them to keep those stuff properly by themselves nd they can donate if they want later or keep those things with themselves.. And i m so thankful that no one in my family do this minimizing thing in my absence..🤔😅 When i was a child my mother donated my toys and collection of storybooks without even asking from me once i was in school that time..i still remember how bad i and my brother felt for days and months..1 or 2 books were left by mistake nd i still possess those books and shown those books to my kids also they were also happy to read books their mother used to read in her childhood

We are just beginning our journey to minimalism. Have been considering it for years but with the recent passing of my Papa it's just made it all more clear just how short, and meaningful Life really is. We did our first drop off to second hand store this past weekend. We have started turning the TV off after dinner and picking a room of the house to tackle as a family, this has meant I usually go thru things while husband plays guitar and entertains our child and says yay or nah to items as I come across them but so far it has worked for us hah I love making it a family thing and it truly is time better spent rather than sitting mindlessly infront of the TV thinking about alllll the things we have to do. Thank you for your videos. You are a huge inspiration

Good ideas. Time is not my issue I make time for what I enjoy or would like. I've decluttered & organized most things. There are still things I still need to downsize! I'm approaching it as if I'm keeping things I like most need to have more than joy value but be useful. Some things are not & it's just hard to let go.

We have a wonderful shop in our town that is run by the local Down’s syndrome group. The older kids get to work in the shop hanging clothes and stocking the store. All profits go to their charity which also runs group homes, a plant nursery, and other employment opportunities for their clients. Nothing makes me happier than seeing their faces when you bring in new items for the store. We recently sold our second home and I brought everything to the shop.

A. Time invested comes back plus more. B. You could spend 5-10 minutes a day on it, but do you really want to drag the project out forever? Better to set a block of time and do a room or three. Ideas: 1. You could : wake up early or stay late. 2. Cancel a one-time or a recurring appointment. 3. Postpone a hobby for a while 4. Take some hours of vacation time off work 5. Cut out a chunk of screen time 6. Get a trusted person to take your kids somewhere, one-time or trade 7. Delegate a chore or task, to spouse or child, or hire it done 8. Make it a family event to do together. You are in the driver's seat of your life. You get to choose what fits.

I highly recommend the staycation! I did this just recently and it was great. I would also recommend making a definite plan prior to the staycation. Otherwise it's very easy to do more goofing off than you should, and before you know it , your time is gone. It was a very good feeling to go back to work after the staycation, knowing that I had gotten a lot accomplished and also had time for some relaxing time that I planned ahead for. Still not completely minimized though, so now I need to carve out time at least 2-3 times per week and tackle some more stuff!

*I LOVE the FAMILY TIME tip* but I understand how it might not seem realistic for many families, especially those with preteens and teens. *BUT HERE’S THE RUB:* When our kids spend the first 12+ years of their lives hearing us grumble about the mess and the clutter, and they see us always being stressed about chores, they pick up on that negativity and internalize it. So it’s no wonder they don’t see cleanup time as fun or easy or positive. I wish I had realized this earlier in my parenting journey so that I could have modeled more positive habits for my kids. But I was immature and negative myself😕 Meh🤦‍♂️

I made it a rule for myself that most of the time when I am watching KZbin videos, I have to also put away/clean my dishes or make dinner. It’s worked out pretty well for me.

In my family when we did this it was a family affair as well. Sometimes we all went through stuff together and sometimes mom and dad went through the stuff, while my sister and I arranged them nicely, photographed them and posted sale ads for them. My sister and I also made for sale and donation piles, and responded to interested customers by email. Within....maybe 3 separate stretches of 3 month periods, we got rid of everything we had but memorabilia. But still these days, we make time to get rid of even more clutter. :)

For me, if I wake up at 7am, I already woke up late. I'm beggining to think that waking up at 3 or 4 am almost every day, work day or not, it's an issue. Never feel rested, but still my eyes open at that time. 😟

I make a 4 bag pile! Do I want this? Do I need this? Do I donate this? The last bag is for the trash! It will keep you organized and clutter free! It takes getting use to; but it can be done! You do give excellent advice; as well! 👍

'Need to 'Find more time'? LIMIT the kids' extra curricular activities! They don't NEED 3 or 4 extra-curricular activities! They're EXHAUSTED from a 2 hour workout BEFORE school & another 2 AFTER school(might include study table) + music! They're not getting home until 8pm or later, then dinner,(or fast food snack) homework before bed at 1am later!

Get the kids involved! You might be surprised how quick they will want to join you. Besides, out of 10 there is likely at least 1 or 2 that are naturally minimalists. View them as an asset.
