I decluttered my garage on a rainy day. I had the garage door open and listened to the rain. It was pleasant and soothing, and I enjoyed doing it.

The 3 stages of life are: wanting stuff, accumulating stuff, and getting rid of stuff!! 😆

Call me weird… decluttering is doing a treat for myself. It’s like a spa day for my house…❤🎉😂

Yesterday I was reading a book on the porch. I told myself after each chapter had to go in and declutter for 10 minutes. In three sessions I got it all done.

I've had a struggle with clothes in the past. So, I came up with a method that has helped. The 1st of every month I go through my clothes and pick out what I could wear that month (checking the calendar while doing this is helpful). Every top I wear when I hang it back up I turn the hanger the opposite way. The next time I'm choosing an outfit I look at the hangers facing correctly first. On the last day of the month I take the hangers that are still facing the correct way and get brutally honest about why I have the item and why I'm not reaching for it. If it's a definite no I donate it. If it's still a maybe I'll give it one more time in rotation or place it in my "time-out" drawer to see if I miss it (and this drawer isn't that big). The surprising thing that happened after doing this method for a few months is I stopped buying clothes on impulse.

My favorite piece of advice from this video was to JUST declutter. I think a lot of people are overwhelmed with all of the tasks for a room they don’t even touch it. Great advice!

One strategy that helps me declutter regularly is always having a donatable donate box in my house, so when I come across something I'm ready to let go of, I just place it in the box. When the box is full, I put it in my trunk and drop it off at a donation center as soon as possible.

Great tips. Remember, you don't have to do everything in one day or week. Decuttering doesn't have to be painful but instead helpful and rewarding. Stay positive !!

I decluttered my Living room, dining room and kitchen counter. I sweep, pickup and spot clean the floors every morning. My house is always ready if someone comes to the front door now. It’s a great feeling. I have started in our bedroom and got stalled. Thanks for all the good suggestions for getting me back in forward gear again. The decluttered rooms have never stayed this clean ever. So glad for your channel. Thank you!!

I always listen to a decluttering youtuber while decluttering 😅❤

[nicoleh]

YouTube randomly started playing minimalism videos for me last week, and I'm hooked! I've donated two garbage bags worth of stuff so far, as well as put things up on free groups on Facebook. I'm actually enjoying the process a lot!

I pull everything from one room (except the furniture that will stay) onto the front lawn to sort into 3 sets of boxes: Throw Away, Sell/Donate and Keep. Make sure you pick a dry sunny cool day. Very pleasant!

One of the reasons I enjoy your vlogs is you have such a lovely voice to listen to.

I try to give myself a reward after reaching a goal when decluttering. Even if it’s a small goal, I still reward myself. That seems to keep me going. 😊

Not just "clean and organize" but why don't we paint the space while we're about it? No! I had to stop myself from doing this recently. I just wanted to reorganize my office but found myself thinking about painting it too while I was about making a big enough job a massive job. Luckily I caught myself in time!

My tips:
🧺Donate box by the back door
🧽Declutter one drawer/cupboard at a time unless you enjoy it like me!
🧹Inventory of any supplies such as toiletries/stationary and only buy what is needed
📝Inventory of food in cupboards to meal plan and I gain only but what’s needed
❤also small things like a set amount of towels per person (we all have our own colours) and 2x bedding per bed..one in wash one in bed.

Simple

Excellent tips! I've never thought of my wait-and-see bin as a tool for *speed*, but that makes total sense! Decision fatigue and analysis paralysis are major impediments to decluttering for me so cognitive tips really help!

[Terradiva]

Oh Girl! A mix of psychology +how to+peace out life coaching at once! Shared with everyone who could use a little encouragement after a hard week. Cuz a tidy space feels zen & u just made it seem so easy!

This was incredibly helpful - thank you ❤

Although my own apartment is well under control my father died recently and i am in the process of clearing his very large home.

I had no idea his closets were crammed full of clothing and I have approximately 30 large sacks to donate to charity and another 10 to be recycled!

I have donated all unopened food and toiletries but had to bin large amounts of rubbish also.

Today my plan is to label the sacks so they are organised for uplift, then sort photos/documents/ornaments etc into large storage bins.

I have arranged to take all the towels to our local pet rescue centre.

Will also sort all bedding/linens/cushions.

Im keeping the garden under control until house is sold.

When my sibling returns from holiday she and her husband can organise the garage, shed and loft.

Ive been sat here procrastinating but your video has inspired me to get moving !

Its challenging to resist the urge to tidy and clean whilst decluttering but its essential to stay focused as otherwise takes much longer.

Have already decluttered other relatives belongings and it is not fair on those of us left behind !

I keep my home super clear and organised and wish everyone else would also!

Minimalism should be taught in schools 😊

I am adopting the progress, not perfection, way to declutter. I made a list and began working on different areas, and it feels great to make progress. Instead of doing this annually, I plan to hit different areas more frequently, so decluttering is part of my monthly activity instead of a huge annual project.
