A passing thought - this gadget would be great for people who are in stage one of breaking a hand/oral issue (cigarettes, fingernail biting, tip touching ...). If a person does not have a hand/oral problem, this gadget could introduce a new bad habit. For general health, we want to practice keeping our hands away from our face/mouth/nose. Holding a pen, but not putting it in our mouths, would do the same thing without an ongoing subscription.
If a pot or a skillets needs a good scrub, and you do not feel like doing the scrubbing. Which leads to..Oh, I'll just leave it to soak until after dinner. Which we all know days later that pot, pan or skillet is still there soaking. I found out that if I boil plain jane water in the pan, pot, or skillet. While I am washing dishes or still cooking or finishing up the meal. The pan, pot, or skillet with a hard boil will come very clean, and no scrubbing was needed.
That's helpful. Years ago the alarm would go off and no one would hear it. So the tea kettle would go off until it was burnt. I don't know how many tea kettles we went through.

Best tip of all above? The "nightly reset". Every night, before bed, I make sure things are neat and tidy...especially in the kitchen and bathroom. This helps me keep it neat and tidy during the day and makes for a calm home life. Great vid! Thank you...🙂

I like all your suggestions and regularly watch videos like this for inspiration. Most of them say not to bring things into your home that you don't need, but they usually are sponsored, and we are told about something great that we need to bring into our home. I don't think vaping flavored air is a good new habit to pick up to help someone to declutter and lead a simpler life!
If doing dishes as you cook/etc is a hard thing to build in, I'm currently building into this habit after having a bad ADHD habit of letting them doom pile. I will let a full load of dishes soak, and then when i go make a coffee, whilst the kettle is boiling, or whilst lunch is cooking, I will do the one set of dishes. I will then set another set to soak. Next time I'm in the kitchen, I do that set. And so forth. 5 minutes per kitchen trip, and you can get a surprising amount done and it makes it so much easier to start getting into the habit of cleaning as you go as everything is empty and clear and ready for new dishes. It's a good little habit to slowly get into the habit of doing them more often - with the end goal of not soaking/cleaning as you go/etc. It's a nice little hack to bridge the journey into the habit.
Agreed 100% with everything you talked about. I used to love getting “free” stuff, which usually isn’t really free, when you have to buy something to get it. It’s such a gimmick, something you don’t need, and wouldn’t buy, and is usually lower quality. I found that when I would get the stuff, whatever it was, turned into clutter, and I’d be finding a way to get rid of it. I just love a no clutter home. You have the best tips and advice Gabe. I love your channel, thanks Gabe.
I'm the problem. Dishes piled for days. I appreciate this video. I think the caddy in the bathroom will help with all the shampoos falling off the side of the tub.
I have a lot of stuff, but i’m very organized and label everything. I’m intentional with what I buy and I try to buy things I need vs. want. Unfortunately, because of my complicated health and lifestyle, there are many things that I use to make it ‘easier’ but I try to organize everything with small organizers and stow them away to make it “look” like i’m living a minimal lifestyle until you open my drawers or closets…which is meticulously organized and easy to reach. Japan is very good at making the most out of small spaces while making it look minimal.
I rode in a Tesla last December, my Uber was a Tesla. I've never been so jerked around in the back seat as I've been in that Tesla. I think the suspension is crap. And we only drove from downtown Denver to the airport. The huge sunroof sounds nice but in reality you bake inside the car unless you cover it, I confirmed it with the car owner. He said that he has a cover for it. Oh, and the neighbors across from me, who bought 2 teslas, almost never turn the lights on in the house anymore, they must have been hit with huge electric bills.
The difficulty in talking to family (or friends) about your wish to live clutter-free is the way they were raised in this buy this-buy that society of ours. You can’t tell them (for example) oh I’d just like a gift card for (this store, that restaurant) because invariably they will say (I speak from experience) “We want to buy something for you because we love you.” Equating materialism with love, eh? I did that when I was younger and more stupid with my wages. But the older I get, the less I need, the more I want everyone around me to *enjoy* their earnings, not buy me more junk to donate, or worse, get rid of.
Can I tell you that I just checked your subscriber count and saw it at 499k and I got so so stinking excited for you? 🙌🏼🙌🏼 I've watched your channel grow and have been incredibly inspired by you and holy smokes - you're doing amazing things!
I have a strict rule in my car (okay, our car) that when you arrive at your destination (it doesn't matter if you drove for 20 minutes or 200 miles), then all the rubbish you have collected in the car during the journey must come out with you , ESPECIALLY if it has been near a MacDolands..so no paper cups or dropped french fries can be left behind….
GOOD VIDEO ))) Chore list for myself is crucial. What did I promise someone I'd do WHEN. Prep before that. List at least 4 town chores before driving. Stuff can wait usually. Confirm open hours by phone before you drive. Eatery close an hour early? Bank NOT open at 9 or 4? Bathroom "flat" always clear. Drawers work for smalls. Run the brush in the bowl every day. Dry the shower walls with same towel you dry yourself. Glass tiles sparkle like wine glasses and save hours of decrusting lime. Dust the floor with same and toss in washer NOW. Kitchen flats still need help ))). See cruds on the carpet? Vac NOW. Close cabinet doors. Make bed right after you stand up. No clothes draped on anything. If clean, fold and put away. If not clean, throw in washer right away. No hamper. Clear paths.
I managed to clear everything off my bathroom sink, including the handwash. I decluttered the bathroom cabinet and put everything in there that I use daily (toothbrush, paste, mouthwash, etc.). Then I got a soap dispenser that attaches to the wall. Now the whole area is clear, and it's so much easier to keep clean. Whenever the hand towel needs changing I take the used towel and give the sink area a wipe before throwing it in the laundry basket. This is easy because I don't have to pick up or move anything, and it helps keep the area looking good between the times when I give it a proper clean.
Car trash: for things like gum/candy wrappers, just small stuff, we fastened a small tin bucket from the craft dept to the bar under the front passenger seat, with elastic. Tiny trash liner, leaving the rest of the roll in the bottom. It doesn't get in the way of feet. By fastening it to the passenger's left, the driver can also reach it easily. Change bag on a designated day; mine is Friday.
I keep a grocery bag/trash bag in my car to collect little scraps of trash in one place, then it's easy to bring in at once later! Because I will inevitably leave receipts/paper scraps/tea cups in my car
Thanks. I just washed a few dishes by hand putting them in the top rack of the dw to dry. I do use the dw often but after curating cookware find I need to pull out certain things to wash by hand as I use them more often. Keeps the sink and counter tops clear.
Great tips, Gabe. I've implemented many of these over the years and I watch you for additional motivation. One of the things I love to do when I get home from work is change, lay out clothes for the next day, unpack my lunch, pack tomorrow's lunch, set the coffee pot, etc. It just makes things flow easily. My sleepy self always thanks my past self for being a forward thinker.
@@GabeBult And I thought I was being so outrageous organising my coffee perculator the night before. But it really doesn't change the taste. (I think.)
I wanted to clean my basement out for the last 3 years every Christmas. Starting March I get rid of 1 thing a day out of my basement. It is working well and I find it fund.
We play, 'counter is lava' so flat surfaces stay clean. When things are left, they go in a basket and can be reclaimed in 24°. If not reclaimed, donate/trash. Easy peasy
Great video again and definitely seen results of my nan's fungal freebies gone wrong as we are clearing the home it's a huge task now for us all. Thanks Gabe!
@@GabeBult unfortunately but thankfully more people are learning more about intentional belongings thanks to channels especially like yours so I know my children will not have to deal with all the extra worry of our things but they will have memories instead which makes us so happy
"Dishwashers" are really dish rinsers. If you want a clean dish or cup, you have to wash it by hand. And, it saves water and electricity doing it by hand.
If I let nasty pans soak, or I've made the dishwater too hot for my hands, I set an Alexa alarm as I walk out of the room. There's always something else to do in that 10 mins.
We are now giving away furniture because there is nothing inside any more. No new furniture is coming in. Clear surfaces are the default now. Every shelf in every cabinet is only half full as is every drawer. I put empty boxes in the back of under sink cabinets to prevent stuff from being shoved in. The fridge now is only 20% full. We only have one set of dishes and cutlery per person. Don’t wash your dish, well that’s your problem😊 the only thing I won’t minimize is my collection of liquor, liqueurs and bitters. I have it all arranged on bookshelves on a back wall. 2 nights a week my husband and I split a cocktail. I night is a new recipe and the other an old favorite. This Is a luxury that has made up for hardly ever going out to eat. Not even for coffee or fast food. We buy small amounts of extremely high quality raw food and rarely exceed $200 a month. I never thought I would live in a home so neat and clean. I wish I had done this 20yrs ago.
Having a plan with your fridge and pantry items is always a good thing. I like to have them both full to a point and do other things like meal prep, menu planning and once a quarter date checks. It's just like any other part of the house, they need to be organized and managed. For a while there I wrote in black magic marker the exp dates large so I could use those up sooner. I also added clear plastic bins in my fridge so things don't get pushed to the back & forgotten. Now do these things work all the time, no. I still have the things that I forget to check the date on but about 95% of the time I have very little food waste.
Put a timer on your phone to 10-15 minutes. It is amazing how much you can do! Also, set-up patterns, for example, I change the bed sheets the same day the garbage is picked up.
I set up a turntable with a space for records on the side. That was a while ago. I have been good with keeping that space tidy, but struggling with everywhere else
Ooo 'clean up as you cook' called me out! 😅 One of my simple joys is dancing round the kitchen while cooking dinner...but it does look like a hurricane has hit it afterwards 😂
You make things so simple to follow. Thanks, Gabe. BTW, my writing business is making me some money now, and I'm enjoying it just because I love to write.
I really like your videos. You have great advice. I had an idea with your FUM promo. Just put mirrors in the box and maybe people will realize how stupid they look vaping and then quit.
Having a donation box has been instrumental. I notice once it's full, i stop looking for things to fill it. But once it's been donated and returns empty, things start to find their way in the again bc there's a designated place for things i know i don't need anymore.
I like the donation box idea.I need to clean my refrigerator today that’s for sure. Wow I have stuff all over the place. But it is neat, organized and clean. It looks good but yet it still bothers me.!!!!
I understand what you’re saying but I don’t know if you realize that the purpose of Fume is to help people quit smoking cigarettes. So it may have helped someone like your husband. I’m sorry for your loss.
I live in New England too,! I just got rid of most of my blankets ( they took up to much real estate in my tiny cottage. I just completed 2 room’s clutter free with fresh paint and curtains. I love my new spaces and can’t wait to tackle other rooms
➡️ I’ve got a rule( let’s call it ‘Mind Direction’): if I go to the certain place in my house I take with me that stuff which belongs there. Saves time, helps clutter reduction ✔️

You make it look sooooo easy! Thanks and we Americans are so spoiled…TOO MUCH STUFF!!!!!!
Where are your pots and pans from? I love the vibrant yellow.
0:53 what kind of couch is that? Is it comfortable? Nap friendly?
Wish my husband was like this.
Almost there to get a Tesla! 😃
Let's go
So close to a Tesla!!!
Almost there
Keep up vs catch up (wash a couple dishes as you go vs. huge pile of dishes)
You’re super close to that Tesla!
Let's gooooo
Thanks for the great tips!...I'm going to get up now and finish doing the dishes, maybe clean off the table!😄💚
There are all great tips.
Years ago I got really good at saying “no thanks”. I decline things all the time. Don’t bring it in your home that’s less stuff to manage.
@2:23 reminds me of the saying "Do u wanna be right or happy?" 😅😌 Maybe I need to frame that & put it on my wall 🤔
Any links for the bathroom organizer?
I do a storage box 🫣😖 I fill it and take it to storage! Then I say why do I have so much stuff!!! I want to get to this point of just less stuff!
Yes!
Wth? The blanket basket goes by the couch or keep blankets folded over arm of couch. It's a design element.

I like the donation box idea.I need to clean my refrigerator today that’s for sure. Wow I have stuff all over the place. But it is neat, organized and clean. It looks good but yet it still bothers me.!!!!
I agree
I regret sharing this video now that I got half way through it. I didn’t expect to see FUME. My husband died at 50 from cigarette smoking!
I understand what you’re saying but I don’t know if you realize that the purpose of Fume is to help people quit smoking cigarettes. So it may have helped someone like your husband. I’m sorry for your loss.
A professional home chef van buys the right amount of food and cooks it up after dinner. There are no leftovers, possibly a lunch the next day
My husband keeps everything he uses out and visible and the place looks really cluttered, but there's no changing an 86 year old.
I live in New England too,!
I just got rid of most of my blankets ( they took up to much real estate in my tiny cottage.
I just completed 2 room’s clutter free with fresh paint and curtains. I love my new spaces and can’t wait to tackle other rooms
I hope that you don’t regret that decision if/when the grid goes down.
Almost there! 3K to go. I am so excited for you, Gabe Bult.
Thank you!
In addition, how clutter can lead to hygiene issues by harboring pests and serious potential infection vectors, is important to note.
I LOVE your hexagon kitchen flooring....where'd you get it?!
It came with the house
➡️ I’ve got a rule( let’s call it ‘Mind Direction’): if I go to the certain place in my house I take with me that stuff which belongs there. Saves time, helps clutter reduction ✔️
