    My best tip for decluttering: don't buy it in the first place!

  • @b25mech
    @b25mech 11 месяцев назад +416

    I’ve started with just one drawer. It looked so nice when I was done that I soon did another. I’m inspired by looking at my cleaned out & organized drawers.

    Also unsubscribe from emails that make you want to buy stuff. Companies always send emails saying you left things in your basket or the newest deals.

    For me it’s to much stress and trouble to sell things and when I want things gone I want them gone so I just donate. I will offer to friends and family first and then it’s gone. So yes I am with you cut your loses

    I have to strongly agree that what you consume in media is suuuuper important. It's insane how much it reflects our lifestyle and it can quickly become a reality if you want it!

  • @JohnOchie1826

    I agree, I ignore that rule about decluttering things that I haven't used for 6 mos. I kept my dress from 1997 when I was in college, I used it on my ring hop and graduation ceremonies. My eldest niece used it on her JS prom back in 2005, and my youngest niece niece just used it on her college graduation last July 30. Yep, I am keeping quality clothes for future generations. These same nieces are now wearing my 20 years old Levi's jeans that are still in pristine condition.

    Thank you for presenting this from an energetic perspective. I'm a closet decluttering stylist and throughout all my training and reading no one has suggested "Visualize what your perfect collection would look like." I've worked from "how do you want to feel" but so many people are visual that thinking about how do you want things to look? is a great prompt.

    • @vanessak7069

      Feeling good is more important. I feel good in clean, wide spaces with comfy pillows, high quality fabrics, good scents (orange or jasmine), not too much clutter.

  • @reneecailloux2573
    @reneecailloux2573 9 месяцев назад +23

    One thing that is interesting to me is how you can have and wear so many perfume. I am not criticizing, just discussing. For me, a perfume is a very personal connection to a scent and I have 3: one that is my always, my scent, another one that is more summer when it's very hot and I want something different and a third one that is more going out in the evening in fall or winter. And that's it!. I cannot imagine connecting to so many perfumes. I am very interested in understanding your approach. Thanks

    • @tizb5178
      @tizb5178 2 месяца назад +5

      Same. I can't identify with so many perfumes. Besides perfumes shouldn't be kept for too long a time. They do evaporate. The fresher the better.

    Amazing video! The best tip for me was the “maybe pile” we can so easily just tuck things away in the garage or an empty room & feel like we decluttered but if it’s still in your home you really have not decluttered anything.

    Working in health care, I did not wear a fragrance as a consideration and courtesy to my patience, Same with nail colors that were not natural or clear.
    When decluttering I ask myself if i was moving would I take this item with me?

  • @rachelpackard2742
    @rachelpackard2742 10 месяцев назад +8

    Love it!!! And with your mom saying she would put an entertainment/console table under the tv, maybe a cord cover could fix that look and make it look more visually pleasing. It wouldn’t be a clutter magnet and would still feel open. But if it doesn’t bother you, then that’s what matters.
