Doing a low spend YEAR. Kinda like the No buy but a little more flexible... you just set rules (example: only $30 a month for eating out/alcohol) but in general not buying anything new or non-essential 🤙🏽
My "No spend month" started in Novenber when I got hurt and couldn't work. I'm getting better now but I will be keeping my spending journal. It really helps!📕💰
Great video👍🏻 I align with many of your resolutions and here are my 3 new year resolutions which I wrote down last night: 1) Alcohol Free Year 2) Read 12 books (in the year) 3) Exercise 100 times (in the year) I have a little chart to tick off the books I read & exercise I complete -I love visual aids this really helped us to become debt free a couple of years ago. Happy New Year Everyone🎊
I start my resolutions in November, I have done for years. I find that when Jan 1 roles around I have already got what ever it is "in or out" of my routine. As part of my November resolutions I started 18/6 IF, only eating whole foods and keeping on track with Dexa scans and I'm down 22 .5 lbs so come Jan 1 will start with that habit in place. This also aligns with my no spend year which I have planned to start Jan 1, I needed some prep time and Jan 1 is a new tax year. Intermittent fasting , (less food budget) and a no spend year will also address part of my saving plan for 2022. I did need to watch some RUclips videos to learn how to do spreadsheets to help in my financial plan and I now have that new skill as I start the New Year! Thanks for your videos Gabe, keep them coming!
I'm not focusing on resolutions. I have picked 4 small habits that I want to develop by December 31st 2022. Instead of making a resolution to "go to the gym more" I am going to work to make going to the gym 3X a week a habit. I'm going to start with the easiest habit (using my planner daily to make sure I dont overload my schedule) and only start the next once I've gotten that one solid.
I feel like we don't understand the value of fiction and its impact on our lives. There's a whole set of people who think non-fiction > fiction, but the truth is, it doesn't matter what you read, it's what you absorb and how that enriches your day to day life.
Saving, decluttering ideas, and focusing on the one thing to help minority small business owners overcome fears and struggles. You inspired me a ton this year, I appreciate you Gabe!
Genuinely loved this! Some great tips here. I'm chipping away at my goals day by day, but my biggest goal for 2022 is allowing for failure. I think that's important; realising you will occassionally fail and how to best move on from that.
My all time first and last thing on my list, is to serve God and build a stronger relationship with Him. Focusing on my spiritual journey. Worldly things do not matter to me
I'm still on my minimalist journey. I am currently looking for a new career..sooo right now I have more time to declutter my home. I am happier than I have been in a long time. Thank you Gabe for all you do 💕
My minimalist resolution is to focus more on activities that give me a lot of comfort and joy. I'm learning about plant dyes and am very against fast-fashion these days. I get zero joy from going to the mall (shopping maul)... Learning a skill and creating something tangible is empowering. Minimalism is equally as much a state of mind as a physical space or object.
Kinda funny. As I watch this video I already started a no Buy month, I made a in and out List to be more aware of what enters my house and what leaves and I applied for a Spanish class to learn a new language. I love your tips. -One thing a day- is the next I will try.
I loved the idea of having a declutter box after hearing about it from another Minimalist RUclips channel in January! It makes decluttering easier and much less time consuming. Thanks for sharing these tips!
to tag onto your no spend month, we do a pantry challenge with Three Rivers Homestead. No grocery stores in Jan or Feb, really makes you go through your food stores, get creative, waste nothing, buy nothing
I just found your channel, I love all the tips! Definitely the inspiration I needed to start 2022 the healthy way with a great focus. Also the cinematography is much appreciated!
I saved 50% of my income last year and it allowed me to move for my dream job and put money on my parent's mortgage. It got easier, but I had to live in a scary neighborhood. This year I went car free. Who needs a gym?
I've been doing the box method for a year and yes it is best way to declutter. It doesn't fill too quickly and I can tell that I really need it or my husband ever notice missing his stuff 😂
I got ride alot of stuff and I am getting in a habbit of not buying anything I don't really need anymore. I saw minimalist as we to free myself from clutter plus be more happier with what I had rather then spend spend.. and I agree not buying anything in a box is healthier. Thanks for your videos I love watching them keeps me going and inspires me to keep going
Don't compare your 2. chapter to someone elses 20. You might think your story is not good enough but it is not over yet. *Keep dreaming and putting in the work. I believe in you...*
Can't stress diet enough (IBS) when I eat something I'm not supposed to I have to use the bathroom - when I don't I sometimes don't use it for the whole day 👌✨
So i am doing my night routine rn.. and I’VE BEEN WATCHING THIS VIDEO as a loop in the background because I just love your voicee pfff AND ofc I learnt important things like "Do what you can’t do" .. eye opening
I don't do resolutions, as you point out above Gabe. Start today with something doable. I'm looking to make my life even easier. I have a parent in the final stages of Alzheimer's in a care home in a town half hour south of me and one parent still in good shape at home. Both are in their nineties. My employment is almost full time, I look after the house, run errands etc etc. The house needs to be more accessible and organized. We all have so much on our plates, to carve out time to rest and recreate is even more important. Make little efforts to improve your life, etc. etc. I wish everyone all the very best in 2022 and maybe we'll finally be free of everything happening. Great video!
Hi just joined this community! I plan on decluttering who I'm subscribed to or follow on social media, but I definitely want to stay here for a while 😊
I haven't done it in a while but I used to challenge myself to read one very challenging book a year. One year I read the complete works of Shakespeare in about 2 1/2 months (a bit too fast to absorb). I also read The Republic by Plato and The Odysee and Iliad by Homer. I might get back to some other slightly more modern works (High school English class stuff from 40 yrs ago). I'll see about that. I've read a lot of self help and need to get out of my head and trust my gut more.
I really like the _"Do you something you can't"_ resolution! We can accomplish so many things, as long as we set our mind to it. If I look at my own life, I started a RUclips channel this year. Just hit 1k subs 🎉! But if I'm honest, that's a metric I can't control. What I CAN control is creating videos consistently. In the process, I've been learning what makes an engaging video: scripting, a hook, editing. And with every video, I try to make it just a little bit better than the last one. When I started, there was this little voice in the back of my head, telling me I can't do RUclips. But it's channels like yours Gabe that got me started and keep me motivated. Happy holidays!
Gabe thank you for the laugh when you mentioned new friends is a goal for the new year. It is true that sometimes you have to change it up a bit. Happy holidays!
Great Tips indeed. Will definitely take some for my life. Especially the no spend month, and the 1 task a day thing. BTW: You keep getting better and better with your videos. Love the classy and simple style such as your calming and clear voice. All the best for 2022 from Switzerland.
My goal for January is no spending as well. I went crazy with online shoppjng last year. Didn't even see where those purchases went. Love this video. And yayy another Harry Potter fan. The books are timeless perfection.
I’m going to read some classic books.Haven’t read Great Expectations since high school.Maybe I’ll reread 1984 and Animal Farm.I used to love poetry by ee cummings and Rod McKuen.
We wainting for some food tips, how u cook , what to buy :) i already do all the stuff that u talking about but it just feel good to hear u and see visual Video... just amazin job :) keep going ..thank u for ur work. Daniela from Vienna
When you do get the Tesla please lease it. Don’t buy it outright. As much as I love electric vehicles the battery replacement is still a huge issue after 150-200k miles. Tesla quoting $15k for a new battery and older vehicles being left out of updates is concerning for long term ownership.
Hey there!!! Great video! Quick question, that notebook you have seems like it is super helpful, the one you right goals in for the day. Is there a link or a site or something you can send me so I can get myself one of those note books 😂 thanks!! I hope you are having a good Christmas!
Great video, I m a believer!🙂 Definitely am convinced about food out of a can. I bought a processor to make my dough for my bread. Bread in the stores is not only expensive, it has a "hard" quality because of chemicals. Thanks again! 👍☮️
Giving up chips is hard!!! A healthier substitute is pita chips. Whole wheat (preferable) pita bread is cut up, brushed lightly with olive oil , sprinkled with herbs (optional) and toasted in the oven. Google will have the recipe. We are substituting these for taco chips, when we make Taco Salad. I hope that this idea will be helpful.
Are you doing new years resolutions this year?
Start my New Year's resolutions at the Winter Solstice 2021. It feels better. I don't feel I'm catching up if I wait till the 1st.
We can make decision to change ourselves, our lives and things at any moment , so I don't plan any new year resolution for myself and that works
So true. Changing ourselves can be done at any time. Creating fun scenarios can just lighten the process.
Wont do resolutions😉I am doing goals for me♥️

Love it! I lost 55 pounds doing IF and my two year anniversary 1.7.2022!!
@@ColeDeRuse Congratulations! and Thank you for the inspiration. Happy anniversary!
Congrats champ IF is so simple and effective.
notes for myself :
->>"do what you can't"
->> 1 thing every day helps you get closer to your goal and makes you feel like the day was a success.
Same 🙋
Nice 😃

3 things I'd like to learn are: chemistry, french and more yoga.
that is a varied combination. But nice one
This channel deserves a million subscribers
One of my 2022 goals is to hike 52 times, the 52 Hike Challenge. Essentially, hiking once a week.
Whoot. LUV IT!
First time hearing of this, but I really like the idea. 🤔

I’m starting over in 2022 relationship-wise. I’m relieved to be in better control over my life and expenses.
GREAT vid!!! Everyone, read Your Money or Your Life in 2022. To maintain my decluttered space, I now practice one in, TWO out.
Your Money or Your Life is a wonderful book. It helped me decide on early retirement, which turned out to be an excellent decision.
I totally agree with the evening routine there👍
I just found your channel, I love all the tips! Definitely the inspiration I needed to start 2022 the healthy way with a great focus. Also the cinematography is much appreciated!

I like starting them on Jan1 because it gives me a full start date. But I trial run them in Nov/Dec to make sure the goals I set are doable.
Can't stress diet enough (IBS) when I eat something I'm not supposed to I have to use the bathroom - when I don't I sometimes don't use it for the whole day 👌✨
Thank you Gabe! I’ll definitely start with the no spend month!!
Lets go! it feel amazing after your done and it can be super fun
