//Grab my Extended Decluttering Checklist here ⇩

Last week I shared a video with you that was some genuine encouragement around helping you to start your journey. I talk about an important question you should be asking yourself and I shared a throwback video clip showing how many clothes I had when I first started my journey.

Now I think that’s its only right that I share different methods or ways you can actually start. So in this video Im going share 𝟲 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗱𝘀 but I’m going to do it a 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘭𝘺.

Instead of repeating that same list I'm sure you've already heard. I’m actually going to give you 𝟯 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 and then 𝟯 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 that I believe are 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹.

I take pictures of the spaces where I think needs decluttering or cleaning. Then I clean one by one. Take pictures again to make before and after so as to encourage myself while watching the differences

As a subtopic of "declutter as you live" I usually put some clothes on a sort of stand by, which are the clothes that I need something else that I still don't have to match them with. I know this sounds anti-minimalistic, but I'm slowly replacing my clothes by basic pieces and there are some I still don't have. Add this conscious (and true) "due date" to things feels like minimalism taken with patience, as you live.
Thanks for making other lives lighter.

I just discovered your channel and all I can say is "wow" .. you deserve 100k plus subscribers. Your videos are very well put together and super informative. Keep it up man, your channel will blow up soon!

[Miss_Annlaug]

I really like your channel. Unlike many other Youtubers you get to the point and you are very encouraging. That's cool 😊💕

[sandraffreitas]

My favorite methods are a mix of 'declutter as you live' + KonMari. It works just fine for my hubbie and I, with consistent practice.

You are a joy... I never thought I would or could get excited about decluttering but here we are 👍🏽 Thank You.

I just your videos, I do declutter same as you. I know realize that all thru my life I was a minimalist, but didn’t know there was a name for it until Marie Kondo became popular. I am very mindful what I bring into my home, I am very particular when I shop, which honestly I only shop now when I actually need something.During my day if I see something I no longer need or want, I put it in a donation box, which I keep in the trunk of my car, when it gets filled, I will bring it to either Goodwill or, a thrift shop that the proceeds help women in need, who are starting over again, the thrift store is called Second Chance, I always feel so good donating to this thrift shop.
Ron, you are my favorite u tuber, I just get you, you make such sense, I wish everyone knew this way of life, it brings peace and harmony. LESS is BEST, is the key to happiness...
I look forward to your videos.... 😀

[lynnegordon]

I have been watching many of your videos again. Thank you so much for your help Ronald. I like the decluttering emotional baggage on your check list. Congratulations on the safe arrival of your son too.

[nancybogart]

You can do this — to help people for a BIG MONEY MAKER! I’m inn!!!

[Julie-okfr]

Yes! I have a decluttering routine. It's "ONE item a day, everyday." I began this mind-set about one and a half years ago. Also, if something new comes in, something goes out! And Yes! I now declutter as I live too. After observing me for so many months now, my husband and our 18 yr old have began to do this more easily with me😁 I'll check out your guide; I love new material, Thank you!

[Miss_Annlaug]

Good video. Decluttering as you live works. I do it. But it only works for people who are already minimal and tidy. 8 belive the con Mari method where you do huge purges is the best and most effective way to get to a state of minimalism, comfort and functionality. People with real hordi g issues needs that huge, immediate change and progress to see the fruit of their labor and bravery and use that as forward momentum.💕💕

Beautiful I decided to pick a certain part/space to declutter, I started with my wardrobe for a month, not easy then the bedroom and sitting room now I'm at the kitchen, it's really working for me.

[sarasimm]

I like watching videos of other people decluttering using the popular methods, but I've never used them. I have decluttered using the more of the ways that you've outlined. It has been very successful. Thanks for another positive video!

[barbaracarbone]

Hi... I use the Konmari method. It works like a charm. It's unbelievable. I have to use it in my kitchen now! I like your vids...thanks.

I am a self proclaimed hoarder trying really hard to minimize and find joy and my true self I have tried all those methods and declutter daily I think decluttering is like therapy . I have to ask myself so many questions about why I want to keep a certain item . I do say good bye and thank you to my things strange to most but not me . I’m a great grandma that has lived in the same home for 20 years I have a big family and a adult child with autism . I have to accept there’s a lot of things that had good intentions that are not going to happen . So in a way I’m doing Swedish death cleaning . I love your channel . I have a lot of other people’s things also around so this is a huge challenge for me . My cousin passed and I inherited things of hers also that’s a hard topic cause I’m dealing with the grieving process . I have giving away truck loads of things . I hope someday I will be done . The question I have is minimalism in my mind would take me to living in a van or small RV but when you have others in your life how do you balance less when others want more . I have gotten to a place that I want to say goodbye and family wants the items to stay or you clear the clutter and they fill it up .

This is dope!! I especially love the tip about decluttering as you live. That’s extremely practical as I fear letting go of certain things like costumes my mother made by hand when I was younger. I don’t wear them but they mean so much to me

[kittycat]

Dear Ronald!
Thank you so much for the decluttering pdf I haven’t even printed it out yet, but I already got a few good ideas that I hadn’t thought of just by looking it over!

[judyquintero]

I love your videos, Ron. Swedish death cleaning—the method that works for me! I imagine a day when my loved ones will have to go through my stuff and I want to make it easy on them. :)
