"Not a criteria, but an inspiration".

That sums up the minimalist movement: open to all, minimal definition (hehe), and the focus on the individual journey by using the collective experience as inspiration.

I enjoy the way you express yourself on minimalism.

The best thing about this channel is how grounded it is. The majority of the content you post is achievable/approachable for the 'average' viewer - that's your greatest strength, and it's something a lot of channels miss. (Just my opinion of course :D )

[harshibar]

I always take minimalism wayy too far (donating all my things, clearing out my room), but always end up reverting back to my old ways 😩

"There's no good or bad - it's just how you want to live your life." - CKSpace, 2021. Awesome and empowering video. Also, now I want to visit Singapore! Your cinematography is stunning.

Great video. Don't work for minimalism, rather make minimalism work for you.

[SimpleHappyZen]

Great video, especially loved how you set up the main shot 😊

[tech_files]

I'm glad I found you. Because of you, I started my minimalism journey. As a Sri Lankan, it is so hard to be a minimalist. So I created my own ways to become a minimalist. I think I can do this because minimalism is a tool. 😍

[KennethBrowners]

You helped me find my true identity. Thank you :)

[elizabethdavis]

Please make some videos about Singapore like things they have done wonderfully
Like how they eliminated homelessness and unified many people from different cultures to live together peacefully

I struggle with many of the same things you discuss in this video. It was truly learning that minimalism is a different journey for everyone that helped me change my outlook. Your comment about living as a minimalist vs. living as an aesthetic was the most impactful statement in this video for me. I kept going round and round about having "too much stuff" after numerous decluttering phases. Now I realize, I'm not trying to live the life of an aesthetic monk, but of someone who isn't ruled by stuff. Thank you for these insights.

Love your overall personality and attitude to minimalism🤩❤️ Hammock is unfortunately not for me because of my bad back but I’m considering sleeping on the floor😁✨

I consider myself a sustainable minimalist, which is a framework I find very useful. But there's so such thing as perfection within it, and I'd have low self esteem if I drove myself too hard with it, because I regularly don't live up to any standard. But as you say, it is a tool, a useful perspective. I don't expect everyone to be a minimalist, but intensive consumerism and shopping obsession are damaging, so the more these ideas -- not the aesthetic of minimalism -- grow, the better, in my view. Marie Kondo was the first person I heard say that if want to get others to tidy, start with yourself and set the example and maybe you'll inspire them (paraphrase). And I've also learned that my family comes around when they see the difference these tools make to our living environment and finances!

You're literally my favorite youtuber.

[themoneymalismph]

Should Audit myself in my journey to minimalism ❤️❤️

[Mr_Medical]

I truly enjoy your videos! Please keep up the great work. Minimalism is supposed to make life much easier if not taken too seriously, so it’s up to us what we get out of it!

[kennedymallari]

Feels like watching our reality videos.
Your videos are not just things to watch but things that must watch.

[sashaonthetop]

I just threw out 70% of my stuff, and I'm so proud of myself. I've known about minimalism for about 2 years, but only know have i gotten myself together to do it. Thank you so much!!

[Asako]

Thanks for making amazing content! It’s so peaceful!

[lauratristan]

I don’t know if I can consider myself a minimalist person but I have seen a lot o videos and blogs about it and certainly have started decluttering mainly my clothes (I used to have a lot and also to buy a lot). I think the mistake I have made is that I get angry at my family members for having a lot of stuff that it’s not necessary or they don’t even cheerish but as you said, they are not minimalists, I even doubt they know what it is lol. Now I only try to do it for me, in my things and with my life
