    I just paused this video to clean out my purse. Now I'm going to go clean out my junk drawer. Be right back. 😁💖

      The biggest "minimalist" thing I did for my wallet was to a) go cash free and b) get loyalty cards integrated into my regular credit/debit cards, or c) get an app instead of a loyalty card. So now all I have is 2 cards in my wallet! There is no way I would ever remember to clean my purse out regularly...

    • @ABeautifulHorizonTV

      I started saying "no" when the gas pump asks if I want a receipt. That helps too!! 💖

    • @ABeautifulHorizonTV

      A loyalty card app is an awesome idea!

    • @eizhowa
      @eizhowa 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +A Beautiful Horizon So true about receipts. Whenever I clean out my purse, that is the main reason for any clutter :S
      I have noticed that more and more loyalty apps in my country are giving you electronic reciepts instead, and I really hope it will catch on!

    After watching this, I've realized i've been doing this for my entire adult life without labelling it, no wonder it always felt better when i decluttered my phone or one of my drawers. But you added more items i need to check. Absolutely love the video.

    A Part of decluttering that I’ve added before the year ends, is to declutter social media (Facebook, Instagram, youtube, Pinterest). Unfollowing/unfriending the people, companies or groups that no longer bring joy to my life. Opening my social media now is more enjoyable and no more pressure or burdens added to my journey of clearing my life/mind.
    Thanks for sharing. Your videos bring me joy and a sense of calmness. ♥️

    I'm not a minimalist and is not likely to ever be one, however I found this video really inspirational. I've actually been doing a little bit of these in the past two weeks. Spent several long nights just decluttering my documents (I've actually been hoarding documents, receipts, etc for well over a decade and it's just silly really), and I've also done a lot of clean-up on my computer, and now I feel inspired to want to tackle the rest. I just started a new position at my job which has given me more time and energy, and I would really love to actually do some decluttering, so thank you for this guide.

    We just evacuated Puerto Rico and were able to bring very little with us (we were pretty minimalist down there anyway) I am so excited to begin a new life in a new city with a minimalist plan! Moving is so much less scary (and cheaper) when you are not bogged down with things, and you are not interested in buying many things for the new place! Thank you so much for your videos, you are such an inspiration!!

    Sadia I think you have changed my life a little. Ever since discovering you (last night!) I caught up on your videos. Being vegan myself, this is what I needed. I am just sorry you are so busy you can't take new one to ones because finding a dietician who will accept that I am vegan and help me on the journey of weight loss is like finding a needle in a barn the size of Vancouver. All the best Sadia and thank you so much!

  • @lemonielala3080

    These kinds of videos make me both inspired and deeply depressed.
    I have anxiety and chronic depression (bipolar) and not having clutter or mess around me helps keeping me relaxed and balanced. So I'd really like to live minimalist and have purged large parts of my belongings.❤️
    However. I have a husband and three kids under 12yo and none of them are particularly interested in minimalism or even tidying..... So even though I now have very few thibgs that are mine there is stuff EVERYWHERE. The girls wast all the craft stuff in existance and barbies+accessories galore, my husband has instruments and random papers on every surface and my son has more lego than all of Denmark and an impressive collection of cups and glasses on his desk. And the clothes, oh the amount of clothes...!! I feel like I run after everyone else picking up their sh*t to have a house that is even almost tidy enough not to raise my pulse. It just seems hopeless and like I'm never going to have a home I love. 😔 If I could choose I would have a bright and uncluttered home like you. Maybe some day. For now though, I let your videos calm me. 😉❤️❤️

    I desperately need to do this but it fills me with anxiety.
    I live in Japan. I don't have access to clothing in my size and my weight fluctuates frequently. I'm of lower income and I just don't have the money to replace things at short notice.
    The waste makes me feel incredibly guilty as well. Thrift stores aren't a thing. Japan has a massive disposable mentality...
    I have mental illness (it's stable atm though) which I don't think really helps the situation but because of my bipolar I have a LOT of what if items because my hobbies are so diverse :/ I've got to do this...

    • @jessicaspeckman7928
      @jessicaspeckman7928 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Something you have to keep in mind when watching decluttering or minimalism videos is that it's based around simplicity to make you happier and de stressed, not just to get rid of stuff. If you need the things you have, then consider organizing each category (not even with fancy containers just reorganizing) and cleaning them instead. I don't live in Japan but I am a college student in the US so I understand at least your situation with not having the income to replace clothing or furniture sort of thing.

    I am from Spain but now I live in The Netherlands in a small but nice and comfortable studio so I don't have many things here but it's true that the pile of papers from the letters and magazines, etc. is getting bigger day by day so I will start trowing all of them. It is hard to start cleaning but the hardest thing is to clean your mind.
    Thank you for your video, is a good way of being aware of all the stuff we have a home that we don't really need. Have a good day!

      @CC CC 🏅 ⭐️ 🙌🏼 Congrats to you. I'm assuming you had a small space, and/or not a lot of possessions to start with. Doing it all in one day isn't possible for most households with adults beyond their 20's-30's (more life experience very often also equals more furniture and household items, and a larger home. )

Sometimes i was called heartless bcs i tend to delete right away everything, even from my bf or mom, like i have nothing there to treasure... idk i think attachment is really the root of suffering...

    I've just started my minimalist journey. I've got a chronic illness which was my main reason for wanting to make a change. I've watched many TH-cam videos but the advice was always information overload. I was finding it very hard to declutter all these things at once because of the pain I struggle with. I love how informative and helpful your advice is breaking it down in to categories will help me so much! Thanks you're very easy to understand and don't overload with too much information.

    @xSilentHope 6 ปีที่แล้ว +54

    This was a very helpful and nice video. I'll be sure to use some of your tips! I just didn't like how you spoke about dictionaries. What is wrong with still using one? I found it condescending to say "it's now called google". Not everyone loves to exchange books for digital media. And PS, before anyone hates, I'm 20. Not all our generation lives in the digital world.

    • @PickUpLimes
      @PickUpLimes  6 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      My sincerest apologies, xSilentHope, as this was meant to come across more as a joke more than anything. The tips I offer in any of the PUL videos are just meant to offer some suggestions, but as you may know: I always encourage people to do what feels best to them. If an item makes you happy, then by all means keep it - there is nothing wrong with it in the least. I hope you can understand and sending much love ❤

    • @raraavis7782
      @raraavis7782 6 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      xSilentHope I'm sure it wasn't meant that way. Keep in mind: if a youtuber/public person always censors what they say so no-one could possible ever be offended by it, things get pretty...unspontaneous and tense. We all want to listen to people who are genuine and open...but that also means we might get confronted with something that rubs us the wrong way every now and then. But as long as there was no bad intent...why not shrug and respond: "I LOVE my dictionary!'" ☺
      Or think about it that way: Who is the person you're hurting most by being offended? YOU! Same with anger...or most negative emotions. Yes, they are completely natural and sometimes useful to mobilise the strength to defend yourself...but mostly they are just a waste of time and energy. It took me a long, long time to learn that...to calmly (and humorouly) make my point if I disagree, without letting it get to me emotionally...but it makes for a much happier life.

    • @theblessedlife2376

    • @sugarbomb187
      @sugarbomb187 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      I study literature & so I use dictionnaries on a regular basis but I understand Sadia's point. So many people keep dictionnaries without using them just for the sake of it. In the line of a minimalist approach, keeping dictionnaries without using them is pointless.

    Hello Sadia,
    Thank you for creating such a wonderful guide to cleaning day by day towards minimalism. Usually, I’m really stubborn with lifestyle advice because of cliché statements in the self help community, but this plan is very well organized. Also, I am someone that gets overwhelmed with cleaning and this guide truly helped compartmentalize my life. I recommend it to anyone. Thankyou Sadia

  • @solveigober8706

    Great video. But I am really shocked by the dictionary "now called google"
    1) google keeps track of your data
    2) the act of searching in a dictionamakes is learn. It's a process and the search helps memeorize. Have you noticed that we often search the same thing online again and again and don't remember it ?
    3) what do you don't when the internet connection is poor ? Speaking of being 24/7 under wifi is not healthy and now that we are forced to switch to 5g we will be irradiated day and night. A physics researcher friend confirmed that wifi iradation is harmful to the brains development for children especially.
