Me and my husband had to start minimalism. There was one time he was like I DONT HAVE SHIRTS TO WEAR! I counted all his shirts that night and counted 74 shirts and 8 pants. I told him afterwards, he was very disappointed with himself. We started to sort out his clothes, sold some and then donated most. Now he has 15 shirts and is very happy with it. He gets to wear all of them in 2 weeks (just in time for laundry) and we have so much closet space! IT is the way to go

I think minimal living is more positive and increases your creativity

Clearing off all surfaces is my top habit for a calm, peaceful home. But I actually have no clutter in my home, it's amazing how little we actually need to live happily. I always write a wish list for the month and it has been huge in saving money.

I love that you said simplifying isn’t the end goal.. so true. We have to identify the reason why we are simplifying so that we can keep it up

I started a wish list this past year for Christmas. I never know what to say when someone asks me what I want for whatever gift giving event bc I have always been blessed to get what I want/need when I wanted/needed it. However, I started the list in October of last year and instead of going out and buying things like toiletries, stamps, 4 color Bic pens, etc, I wrote them on my list. When family/friends began to ask what they could get for me, I actually had an answer. Everything I got for Christmas was something I use, and it didn't matter if more than one person gave me the same thing bc most of the items are consumable. I also didn't have to worry about returns or feeling guilty about what to do with random gifts that I had no use for. I now have decided to keep a wish list year round as all of my "holidays" are spread throughout the year (Valentine's day, May birthday, November anniversary, and Christmas) Works for my husband as well as his birthday is in April.

Loved Atomic Habits - my favorite 2020 read! Habit stacking is so helpful! My favorite habits 1. Run the dishwasher and take out kitchen trash every night. 2. Nightlime reset/tidy of living areas 3. Morning Bibke reading, reflecting, planning.

I’ve always waited on purchasing items! Sometimes an item seems like I truly need it at that moment but then I realize that I won’t need it until months later or that I don’t even need it at all. Waiting helps put things into perspective and prevent impulse buys

Ohhh I would love a video where you talk through your book collection. I always find it fascinating to see which books people have. Xx

Thank you for all of the reminders ❤️ sometimes you just need to be reminded of the things you already know.

This is super helpful! Thank you Ashlyn!
I do have an active donation box going as well and tidy up before bed. I find I sleep better at night

It’s a practice. Practice letting go of stuff, practice clearing smaller flat surfaces. Practice letting go of the easier emotional stuff. What I tell my family is that if they’re neutral about a thing then it goes. If they really want the thing, we keep it and since I’m working from home now I keep a box in my car in the garage for filling.

I try to clean up or pick up as I go and get everything ready for the next day, like laying out clothes or collecting the laundry I want to do.

I am now following this minimalist mindset. It's definitely changed my life. I really like your last point about resetting.

I think the 1 in 1 out rule can be kind of dangerous though, I've seen people cycle through things (especially fast fashion) by getting rid of stuff they just bought so they can buy new things

These tips are all so valuable! I really want to try the idea of combining a wish list and a waiting period to shop more intentionally; excited to try it out!❤

Last month I started reserving two sections in my kitchen freezer for dinner and smoothie ingredients. After I pull things out I fill it again with other foods. This proved helpful when I was given two boxes of food this week. I had room to store them so they won't go to waste. I also have been trying to clean my dishes and tidy up each day. It's led to me declutter other areas. Thanks for your helpful information.
