5:33 yes!! I’ve done over 10 boxes worth of donation boxes and it’s has helped SO MUCH

[risarahn]

I chant/cheer “purge baby! Purge!” Every time I declutter, and hear about my friends and family declutter!

1. I keep my mail section right next to shredder. So everything I don’t need goes right in shredder without thinking about it.
2. I definitely do the donation Amazon box on hand for my semi-annual closet purge
3. I absolutely do the leave my possible purchases in checkout for a few days before I actually purchase. 7/10 I normally don’t feel the urge to purchase unless I really love after waiting.

Your advice helped me so much when I was in 2300 square foot house. I have moved into a senior citizen assisted living now and have two room apartment but I still use your methods. Thank you for your videos. Wish the best for you and your family.

I do a spin thru my home every evening before settling down for the night, putting everything in it's proper place, including doing dishes in the sink. It really makes a difference. 😊 I sleep better! Almost forgot, I also say thank you out loud for all the lovely things I have. I really love my simple pretty little home🥰

This is great. We were forced to declutter due my house catching fire. We lost everything. But as we are rebuilding and living in a rental right now I am becoming aware of the crap we had. I am trying really hard now as we bring things in that we need to keep things out.

Tell us more about how your digital paper storage. And how you file your paper, please! That’s my weaknesses, I am great at at physical decluttering, but not paper, yet.

I keep my old phone when I get an upgrade for my "distracting" apps. For me, it's a small price to pay for having a way to focus my attention properly. I move all my shopping apps, rebate and flyer apps, games, etc. All I have on my actual phone is just my banking app, to-do list, youtube and email. Makes the battery last longer and it's harder to be distracted by other stuff every time you reply to a text.

Love your videos! I have benefited from putting things in my Amazon wish list and waiting to see if I really want them. I almost never buy anything on my wish list, but it comes in handy when someone wants to buy me a gift! 😊

[kahinaharrache]

I woke up and this is the first Youtube video i've watched today ! It really encouraged me to tidy up ! Thank you :)

With labor day weekend coming up, this 3 day decluttering challenge is EXACTLY what i need!!

[dream-nzyb]

Love your hair in this! Thanks for the advice, I’m overwhelmed right now

[kellyfrey]

Been a subscriber for many years, this video brought me t[ the website for the decanter challenge of just 3 days! So manageable!

[HopePatten-em]

My husband and I have lived in a fairly nice size 5 wheel camper for 3 years now. I love your YouTube channel and your e-books. I have went through my clothes several times I get rid of a bunch of them but there’s some that I just have to hang on to.

[queenbee]

Thankyou. You're so inspiring. My donation bx/bag lives in car trunk. Anything needing to go OUT is deposited at door, & nxt time I go to car, goes in the trunk. Nxt time to donation center, out it goes forever.

[beena]

I started decluttering since 2020, when Corona came in our lives.. I think of it as a death cleaning.. But today I learnt few more tips from your video. Thanks for that 🙏

[ritaduplessis]

I used to be so bad with emails, but many months things have changed for the good, so freeing . Plus donating things. Such freedom. Still some things to do. 😮 Getting there

[dariyayatsyshyn]

Love your videos!

Thank you 😊

[dianamcmahon]

I've been using the 1 in/1 out rule for years now, and it's very effective. It really helps to ask yourself before making a purchase, "Do I like this thing enough to get rid of something else?" Very helpful (if you stick to it 😉)

[kathleenbeauchemin]

Oh you are soooo right about it takes forever to de clutter! We just sold our home after 45 years and downsized to a townhouse. I worked months on getting our home ready for sale and even though I thought I got rid of everything we still have I opened boxes in our new garage. It’s taking forever, we are in our 70’s and it is so overwhelming and tiring. We hadn’t moved since we were in our early 30’s so I had no idea what I was doing, was completely unorganized and when the movers moved boxes to our rented townhouse unfortunately I was at he old house and my husband was here…plus, my nephew and brother also moved items and threw things out…some boxes that were to be donated ended up here some things that were marked with the rooms they should go into were thrown out. It was such a fiasco. I don’t think I’ll ever get done or organized in our new space😢.
