    The thing Ive always appreciated from Matt is him being realistic and not holding himself to an unrealistic expectation. Things like coming back to handle something when youre feeling up to it or just being okay with things that can cause frustration like not having stuff put back where its supposed to. Really great video in organization and just a general great advice in regards to cleanliness and orgnizqation leading to feeling fulfilled and living better. Thanks Matt

    I literally just told my 12yo stepson that I'm done yelling at him and punishing him for not cleaning up after himself. If he makes the decision to leave his room a mess, he can deal with ants and stuff and his friends not wanting to come visit. If he wants to make the decision to leave his bike outside and not put away, he can deal with it being all rusty, or worse getting stolen. There was far more to the conversation, but I'm glad I'm not the only Dad who has decided to stop yelling and forcing the kids to clean up, and just deal with it quietly haha.
    In other news, your garage is amazing!

I just found out and learned the right way to do it. If everyone did that the world would be a lot better place have a great one.

    They make ceramic coatings for wood that you can apply over the Rubio Monocoat on your counter for some additional protection. I've not tried them personally yet, but I've started looking into them for my dining room table which has a similar finish to Rubio. One I've seen is the N3 Nano coating.

    20:03 I enjoy creating schedules and lists and I enjoy even more completing them. I enjoy lists so much I read engineering books on computer operating systems to find out exactly how many scheduling algorithms there are in an operating system and the best context to use them because everyone knows you can't be a proficient scheduler as an operating system without a thorough knowledge of the possible lists that can be deployed in an operating system...

    • @CGT80
      @CGT80 6 месяцев назад

      Do you use google keep? How many lists do you have? There are probably 20 lists in my google keep and I look at them as much as people check social media on their phones.....I don't do the social media other than posting on forums or youtube videos where I can type at my desktop on a real keyboard. I will never click on the bell to be bothered with a video being released and instead will see it when I click on subscriptions or a recommended video when I choose to watch. Just cleaning up a list can make me feel better, even if the task isn't done. My garage isn't OG level, but I do real work with welding, machining, etc. and don't have as much space. Most people are blown away by it, but I know better and realize so much more could be done.

I noticed that as you were organizing, you were saying, "this has to go to Helen" and then you put it back in the same drawer :-) How long has it been sitting in that drawer needing to go to the other house and you keep forgetting to take it when you do go? :-)

If u are going to have a shed that is for extra items I would have swing open doors and perhaps a little closer or the garage.. but I understand if logistics prevented that.. also u could use some slatwall in that shed to get more things off the ground

    You know if you wrote down on paper the plan for this video and submitted it to a number of people that RUclips employs to make suggestions such as Renee Ritchie, you might get a response that no one will watch it, it's boring etcetera. WRONG! This video was completely entertaining and informative. So what I want to say is if Matt thinks something like this is not worth doing this video proves that he should just go with his gut and make videos about what he wants to. Hopefully those of us watching will cause the RUclips algorithm to invite other people to watch. PS, I noticed Renee Ritchie this week has come crawling back to making regular videos.
