I thought what you said was Brilliant. Totally resonated with you. Especially how your stuff 'aligns' with your relationships. That was a light bulb moment for me. I was filling my home with stuff, thinking it was pleasing my family. Tysm.

🎉🎉🎉

Right on👏🏻

I am a total minimalist but last month i bought a larger tv because i have macular degeneration and my sight is getting really bad. I'm retired and i can have a tv without shame. Wednesday my cellphone froze up for the last time. I had to buy a new one. These were not planned purcheses but were mecessary. My credit card is crying.

A great video with lots of good ideas. I don’t really buy things other than food and clothes when the old ones wear out. So there is a lot of things I don’t buy anymore, but I did before I became a minimalist. Now I look at not buying things not having to declutter it in the future

I come across your channel today and listning to this and another one you were talking about your Financial gap to retirement. Here comes my answer to your question. No I won't subscribe channel your sit there and just talk nonsens. No I will not pay for your membership first because you are not interesting second I am saving my money to. do you really think you are smart. your voice gave a headache. Nobody cars about your personal goal. Stop babbling about tan hour

Subscribe Done. Your channel videos are very nice but your channel engagement and reach are very low due to which your videos are not going in front of your viewers. Because of this, you are losing your audience. If you want to solve these problems, I have some plans and tips for you. Can I share?

So true , all of these reasons . Definetly will keep watching .

I just found your channel and subbed. I really enjoyed this video

After 13 years at my crappy corporate job, I retired at 64. I plan on taking social security at 66. Retirement planning isn't that difficult, but you have to look at the components to it. The key thing is to know your expenses, avoid debt, live below your means and know your income sources in retirement. You don't need millions to retire on. Obama care is available prior to taking Medicare at 65.

I have to say I watched your video. I understand that you need to travel with certain items, but I would not call this minimalist. I work on the road often doing demos and customer meetings. I carry almost everything you list for a full demo set up. I would love to connect and show you some alternatives to lighten that load. I feel you are carrying 30 lbs of gear when you could slim down and get the same effect.

No idea if it'd be ideal for you, but maybe look into something like the xreal or rokid AR glasses. They say they are equivalent to something like a 100 inch monitor. It's surely not for everyone, but it might work well for you.

I'm done decluttering and in maintenance mode, but I still listen to minimalism channels to hear different takes on approaching consumerism and temptation. There's nothing new under the sun, so I don't think it's a big enough topic to build a business out of. But I appreciate hearing a familiar voice on my morning drive or while doing house chores.

I agree, I spend money on my class pass, so I can go to different fitness classes when I am able. Also clean skincare and organic food.

I'm in complete agreement on two of your topics: I've used and loved my AeroPress for at least a decade now, maybe longer. Even grocery store brand coffee tastes good when it's made with an AeroPress. I look forward to it every morning. And experiences, yes. The best memories are my experiences. As to live chats or membership, no, not for me. But I look forward to each new video and hope to see many more.

I wish this was taught in schools, ideally beginning in kindergarten and then every year through high school. In my childhood, in fact my entire personal and working life, the goal was the only mark of success.

Great video! Thank you for the wise advice :D

Seems like the shaming part is from those who think living a Minimalist lifestyle, having a Spartan-furnished home, is bizarre. “Where’s all your stuff? Where’s all your furniture? Are you moving or becoming a monk?” Living in the USA is difficult for those of us eschewing “more stuff” for a simpler lifestyle. Everything here is geared toward “buying more junk you don’t need” in a vain pursuit of…I don’t know, impressing people, wowing them with all your possessions, etc. Not me, not anymore. Wasted too much time, money, and energy in pursuit of material items for reasons I rationalized lamely or never even gave thought about. It’s a bad habit; buying and shopping to buy more is a hamster on a wheel. But inside I knew and felt “Less is More” and now in retirement I can live the way I want, spend time the way I choose.

My rule-1in 4 out

I don’t use sponges anymore to wash dishes. I use reusable clothes. Saves me so much money!!

The plot twist made me subscribe

Nearly 3 years ago the love of my life died by suicide one month before my 65th birthday. In an effort to keep living, I bought vitamins from online influencers. These vitamins have made no impact on my health or any feeling of vitality, but I thought the investment in my health would prevent me from also ending my life. I was wowed by their marketing, but it was a waste of money. I've recently decluttered a lot because I had so much invested in a fantasy retirement that never happened, and I now face a future of my 95-year-old father's accumulated hoarding that will be my inheritance and burden.

so right on the clothes pieces that dont make you feel very good!!!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts

You are absolutely right I am now trying to find ways to sell and give away… both my parents have passed away… it’s not easy letting go… maybe also the fear of will I be able to buy it again? But I also lived for a year without my stuff and saw that it was ok… life was ok… Thanks for the video🙏🏻

❤🎉😊thanks for sharing your story 🙏.

❤🎉😊Amazing 🙏

Your life story reminds me of mine. So much moving around as a kid really impacted my need to “consume” and collect as an adult. I love your direct communication style. Liked and subscribed! Good luck with your channel!!!

Hi Mari, Much Kudos, You’re an extremely resilient person. Excellent video. Love the messages you’re bringing forth 🙌 Thank you and have a super day 🪴😁

Fully Relatable ❤

I'll admit, I was supergluing eyes onto a knitted frog while listening to this. I have A LOT of different craft supplies, but I am slowly going through my stash and turning it into things. Part of my clutter is projects I've made in honour of TV shows. I know most of the people involved in the actual shows would like them, so hopefully I can find a way to get them to their proper owners!

we moved 3x in rapid succession then finally bought our dream house w ample storage in 2019. Perfect clutter storm for keeping storage units AND getting more stuff during lockdown. Buried in clutter! ESP DIY hair products & DIY craft decor :( Finally went "silver" hair & I don't need BOXES of crap

Consumer reports, and many 1-3 star amazon reviews describe this multifunction scale. and others of its type to be wildly inaccurate in providing good/accurate information outside of weight.

There are different needs at different stages of our lives. Buying thoughtfully is the key. I started decluttering about 7 years ago and started with spices. I finally accepted that I was never going to make all those fragrant and nuanced meals that my fantasy self envisioned, and it was almost a relief to pare spices down to the ones I actually use.

I don’t purchase nail polish, toxic bathroom toiletries, scented candles, kitchenware, bedding, home decor, craft items or anything for DIY. No more jigsaw puzzles, plants, mirrors, towels, clothes, shoes, and so on. I have enough and don’t plan to add to my home, only subtract!

I find the "Would I Pay to Have This Moved?" question to be very helpful, including if you don't have any plans on moving within the near future. It's quite eye opening! 😲 It doesn't mean that you have to get rid of *everything* that falls into that category, at least not straight away, but it gives you food for thought and other questions may pop up: why wouldn't I be willing to pay someone to move it? , would I replace it with something equivalent but better, or not? etc. Thanks for another helpful video! I'm enjoying your content 😊🌺✨✨✨

Thanks for the tips😊

🎉🎉 this is so good! I love the minimalist lifestyle. The con of the head game gets me when it comes to clothing though. Freedom is one of my core values so I completely love this message.

My why for minimalism is to reduce my daily to do list.

I practice minimalism but not with clothing even though I do downsize clothes when needed. I like to practice frugality but tend to spend more than I care to, which causes me emotional stress. I record all purchases and monies into a monthly paper ledger. Halfway through the month I add up how much I’ve spent so I can adjust for the other half of the month. If I use something in the home I be sure to put it back, do Home stays tidy.

I used to wrack my brain over which kind of minimalist I was. A lot of it had so do with dissociating myself from The Minimalists, who trigger me and absolutely rub me the wrong way. I've tried elegant minimalist, then D5 minimalist (dematerialized decarbonated debonair decorous and deluxe), or maybe C4 minimalist (compact, comely, curated, and convenient), or perhaps C5 (comfy). But just "minimalist" seems to be enough. How ironic. :)

Shopping for Minimalist aesthetics is easier today, but teenage fashion is an exception. It's frustrating that understated garments cost more and are harder to find than those with logos and garish designs.

I am an aspiring frugal minimalist! 😊

It's interesting to consider the way minimalism and frugality are connected. Your explanations help me to carry on with my decluttering because I can more clearly see my own definition of what's important. I like nice things, I like a bargain, I'm decluttering. I guess I'm somewhere in the middle of the two ideas.

I'm glad your video popped up today. I've been decluttering and gradually letting go of stuff, and I've been helped along by watching minimalist and decluttering videos. But you're the first presenter I've found who didn't talk about being a mom or maintaining a house. Listening to you this morning was supportive and encouraging.

Binging on your content 👍
