As someone who’s been disorganized and messy my whole life this is amazing to me. I could never get close to this level of organization, but it is inspiring me to do a better job than I’m doing
Your lifestyle is literally my dream! As a teen freelance that can't afford my own space, I can't really do much with my family's house. But still i try to keep my best to make things clean in our home.
Hang in there Chris. You'll get your own place. Here's a fun idea. Visualize at what it will look like in the future. Before I got my Car, a Friend gave me a Cutout of a Car. I put it on My Dresser and I wrote myself a Note "Until I Get The Real Thing" and I did.
I think it’s crucial to have a clean work space because, more often than not, starting with a clean slate can really clear your mind. I personally find that when I have a minimal setup, I generally feel more productive!
The Husky tool carts, chests, workbenches are great. Stable, heavy duty, quality and aesthetically pleasing. I have a rolling cart by them & going to get a workbench for my standing desk.
I agree with this, the only thing I would add is as you cook, the second you are done with a cooking implement/dish, you rinse it and either put it in the dishwasher or else wash it by hand, ive been building up the habit of having the sink full of soapy water to clean a dish with as soon as I am done utilizing it
Just here to say that Husky drawer is a beast! I’m amazed at how clean and well it fits into the setup! Kudos to the out of the box thinking with the room
I agree 100%. If you need something quickly, you know exactly where it is. Also, If I was a potential client, I would way more have confidence in somebody that has a clean, organized space rather than someone who is messy and cluttered.
Good video, as someone who was quite messy when younger I've been slowly getting neater and neater in my 30s. I've been actually trying to get to more of a minimalist mindset in theast few months as well. Make sure everything's as a spot is great advice for sure.
For me, I can’t work in a messy environment. It makes me feel unmotivated to do anything. In a clean environment, I can focus more and work harder. Thanks for the tips ❤❤
Hearing you speak inspired me to declutter some more. I'm not a Hoarder but I loved what you talked about in terms of keeping your Workstation Clean. It's a very smart thing to do and it's easier to find your stuff.
It actually works if every single item has a "home". It takes about 1-2 weeks to get it into a habit, but after that it becomes your second nature. That's how I did it. At first it was hard. I would read a book and leave it on the desk to go to the kitchen. Then I would go back, pick a book at put it where it should be. It wa a bit annoying. Then it got easier. Then it became natural. Great video.
Excellent video! I found this as I was already in the middle of completely rearranging and better organizing my man-cave/computer room/home office, mainly for the reasons you eloquently described...An uncluttered mind and an uncluttered living space/lifestyle go hand in hand, so my space is getting a clean-up and minimalist revamp.
I love this video so much. As someone who's studied Minimalism for over 3 years now, I see you've hit all the points, and have presented everything in a great manner. The visuals were superb. I thank you and look forward to more content. Keep it up EL !!! -Farhaj (NJ)
Thank you. Especially for the tip about items having a specific home they go to. I'm moving in six months and I plan on keeping my place organized. I'm going to run a tight ship. This way I'll feel better about my life. 👍
@@edwardleefilms I have even seen peoples desktops full on documents or shortcuts, and that is something you see immediately when you turn your laptop on, But yeah I try to live a streamline life haha is what I call it and do a mass delete at end of year of what I no longer need eg.documents
Thank you, this is very helpful and practical. As a dj and visual artist with items from both camps in a small home office, I've got my work cut out, but your video is inspiring me to turn it around.
Excellent video...Great tips on keeping your office space clean ..I so agree when your space is organised and clean it helps so much in your productivity... Blessings
Loved it!! While I was watching your video, I felt that my mind was organised and cleaned. It works from visually as well!! Now I'll declutter my stuff! Thank you for giving us motivation!
New sub! I pretty much watched all organizational and decluttering from other videos but this one is the level up, well-made video with best editing. A+ because this is coming from a man!
So much great advice. Love to see more on your digital organization process. A tip I would around home office improvements is to create an overall plan for the layout and the larger pieces such as desks, storage, chairs/sofa. Then you can budget and work on the improvements overtime. Keep this kind of content coming!
@@edwardleefilms Did you know in the 1950's there was a Song by a Girlband called "Mr. Lee" by A Group called The Bobbettes. It was a One Hit Wonder but it's still so fun to listen to. It was about their Jr. High School Principal.
thank you for the tips. if you don't find yourself using it, for about a few months or to a year, than you don't need it. so true! i might not be in the same line of work but i truely agree. my workspace in in WIP'
Hey bro loved the video, I’m a firefighter from Canada and I can tell that extension cables and powerbar fires are quite prevalent in North America, just some food for thought.🤘
If you find an item where you feel you might use. Ask yourself how often. If it’s once a year or more, it might actually be worth the money to buy that item when you need it, rather than store it. Because for every 10 items you may use, 9 will never be used. That extra one, you will have to buy at some point but you’ve saved yourself years of reclutar from those 10 items. Worth it imo.
Thanks for sharing your perspective and tips! Really helpful when it came to decluttering my own space as a UX designer and content creator. Looking forward to more content!
Hey man , thanks a lot, this video has been very helpful to mentally deal with clutter And being productive . Living in “Survival Mode “ is pure stress !
UPDATE: I've made the digital workspace organization video if you'd like to watch it here - th-cam.com/video/UCTCeMna03k/w-d-xo.html
Make sure your gaming room is clean for you had to have a gaming experience
never trow away: RECYCLE REUSE REDUCE - RESELL!
Could you do a phone version?
"have home for every item" is a very good advice!
As someone who’s been disorganized and messy my whole life this is amazing to me. I could never get close to this level of organization, but it is inspiring me to do a better job than I’m doing
Thanks for watching! I definitely wasn't always like this and I am still working on things daily. All a work in progress :)
It's such a relief to see such a realistic and relatable comment on these kinds of videos too. So thanks for that
Your lifestyle is literally my dream! As a teen freelance that can't afford my own space, I can't really do much with my family's house. But still i try to keep my best to make things clean in our home.
I started out as a creative while living at my parents home too before I moved out. Always try to make the best of each environment you are in!

I couldn't agree more! Your environment is definitely tied to your productivity
yes - please make a video on organizing your digital space. need that
especially email system
He is totally right! You don’t need to be rich to do this. It will give anyone more meaning in life without spending a cent!
The Husky tool carts, chests, workbenches are great. Stable, heavy duty, quality and aesthetically pleasing. I have a rolling cart by them & going to get a workbench for my standing desk.
Man... this is the message what I needed to hear: "a cluttered mind can lead to a cluttered space."
Yes! I think about that statement often
A digital organization video would help me so much! I just updated my physical space too but digital space is needing a huge upgrade. Great vid bro
I agree that digital space organization is just as important!
Keep your gaming room nice and clean for great gaming experience am I right gamers
I agree with this, the only thing I would add is as you cook, the second you are done with a cooking implement/dish, you rinse it and either put it in the dishwasher or else wash it by hand, ive been building up the habit of having the sink full of soapy water to clean a dish with as soon as I am done utilizing it
This is a great tip!!
Just here to say that Husky drawer is a beast! I’m amazed at how clean and well it fits into the setup! Kudos to the out of the box thinking with the room
Thanks so much! It was a struggle getting it up here and would never do it again. But I’m glad it worked out for now haha
Well done! I like the way that you speak as if we are in the same room! Not scripted! I hate when it feels fake!!!
Thanks for watching!
Last tip true. Working in a clean and organized worplace is like drawing on a blank space.
I agree 100%. If you need something quickly, you know exactly where it is. Also, If I was a potential client, I would way more have confidence in somebody that has a clean, organized space rather than someone who is messy and cluttered.
This is huge! How people keep their environment is a good gauge of how they work too
Agreed about the mindset, if the workplace is messy then usually the work is messy too ;)
I rarely write comments, but man, this video gave me a boost of productivity for the whole day!
So happy to hear that. Thanks for watching!

having less is way better; couldn't agree more! nice video, very helpfull
The natural light in this video 😍
Finally shot in the morning 😂

Couldn't agree more with this comment!! Its a process for sure
Your space is so clean!!! I feel so calm just looking at it.
Haha thats awesome. Took a less moody approach for this one!
So many videos out there similar to this.. yet this one was different enough where it stood out and moved me to make immediate changes. Thanks!!
Can i ask which parts in particular?
My bedroom and workspace suddenly changed! Will keep the habits and mindset you shared, Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching!
This is GREAT advise not only for home offices but also workplace.
Thanks for watching!!
@@edwardleefilms You are super welcome Edward!! Thanks for the reply it means a lot.
A digital file organization video would be so helpful. Dealing with media and project files can be overwhelming if it's not well organized.
Awesome. Good to know! I think I will add this video idea to the list
Yes, please!
In love with your tidiness ... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Attachment disorder is what i have! Oh, how difficult it is - but I like the idea of keeping up with your space - a little at a time all the time.
This is a life-changing video. Thank you.
You and I have the same midset, I have always had a clean minimal desk, everything has it's place and I do upkeep every week.
Thank you. Especially for the tip about items having a specific home they go to. I'm moving in six months and I plan on keeping my place organized. I'm going to run a tight ship. This way I'll feel better about my life. 👍
Yes love that! Wish you all the best on the move
5:54 that cable management setup 😍
This is what I try to explain to people, especially around work, physcial clutter equals mental clutter, Great video Edward
