Thanks for the update and keep doing what you do. In my opinion, the recession has already happened last year. The Labor data is completely nonsensical due to pandemic lockdowns and people figuring out how to survive without working the same way they have historically. So much money on the sidelines matching up with the last year of pain will drive equity markets higher, People are starting to realize the value of their equity of choice is too good to pass up. For me, that is BTC and ETH. If they hold above the Bull Market support band, (currently is) over the next few weeks everyone's view will flip bullish.
As a dad with a seasoned intentionality philosophy, I really enjoyed this back to basics view. I do regular 30 day declutter challenges, usually several times a year, but I have two young kids who are, funnily enough, less intentional in their day to day exploration of the world. The challenge with so many platforms talking through minimalism is that it’s very uncommon to hear from minimalist or intentionalist parents. Terms like - choose an easy life now and you get a harder life later - is difficult for parents of two or three young children, potentially ladened with guilt, to get the intended inspiration from. For me, I think it’s a highly challenging world to get into as a newbie. It probably took me three years to really jump into it and the reason I knew it was right for me wasn’t the minimalist aesthetic (which I prefer), it wasn’t the matter of simply managing fewer things and it wasn’t even the fact it allowed me to get closer to my core life values, it was the simple feeling I got from the message. I felt lighter, I felt more purposeful, I felt more at peace and I felt like I was a more reliable parent to my kids.
Slow declutter is good, just start. I started decluttering in 2020. I still do it until now, because there's season in your life that some things are useful and some are not.
Yeh, I did a declutter challenge in Feb and I’ll go again in April. Two very young children do not harvest a healthy, intentional life philosophy! This is the main problem with self help podcasts and comments like - “do the hard things now and the future becomes easier”. It’s overly simplistic for family life with young kids.
“The problem is not materialism as such. Rather, it is the underlying assumption that full satisfaction can arise from gratifying the senses alone. Unlike animals whose quest for happiness is restricted to survival and to the immediate gratification of sensory desires, we human beings have the capacity to experience happiness at a deeper level which, when achieved, can overwhelm unhappy experiences.” -His Holiness the Dalai Lama
@heathero2l Well, youtube is still social media, so I assumed they'd be off here as well. I'm socializing with you. Therefore, it's also a social platform.But who knows. A lot of people still keep youtube as it's a great platform, in my opinion.
i agree we are socializing, but i do not see them doing it on here, but i understand what you are saying because i kinda wondered that before this posted.
@heathero2l yeah, a lot of people with a huge following rarley reply I've noticed. But they must have meant their other platforms they'd be taking a break from. I like their youtube videos anyway.
Hi MINIMALISTS: What happened to you leaving social media (& TH-cam?) for the rest of 2024? In fact: Why am I seeing 😮this? Was the last episode click bait? Where’s your integrity your word?
@@heathero2l possibly so… However, if you review the episode there was emphasis on TH-cam stating , they were not monetized, and were giving it up. I can’t stand two faced hypocrites that can’t abide by their own standards. How are we to know they aren’t truly monetized? Tell me: Is there proof? I’m likely unsubscribing. They won’t care. Believe it.
@@heathero2l Thank You. I at least appreciate your comment and for going back to listen. I just like when people can actually have the backbone they claim to… now the “minimalists” possess minimal credibility.
I dont believe the stat that the average household has 300,000 things. How would anyone even get data on that. I own probably less than 300 things and altough i think i own very little, i think there would be a lot of people with less. On another note, i really dont understand people that can not / find it hard to declutter. Clutter sucks. Why do people hold onto things. Everytime i hear that people struggle with decluttering, i think of that scene from Jim Henson's Labyrinth with the hoarding monsters covered in junk.
Well it depends if you have children and pets, live on a farm, garden, build things in your garage, fix cars, all those items to do those things add up quickly. I'd never be able to have that low of items in the house. But it's whatever works for each person. 😊 and what consists of only that many items..does a domino set with 1 thousand pieces count as one item or 1000 ? Our kids love playing with those. I don't think it's about counting items I think it's about what works for each person individually.
Is this a joke? 😂 I haven’t watched the whole thing, but I didn’t see any odd expressions? I personally am not a fan of an expressionless, botoxed face.

Thank you for this conversation, TK's biblical analogy is perfect, I understand that.
Really helpful/inspiring. And that poem the caller left was awesome
Thank you Josh & TK for your inspiration. Your message speaks to me deeply & I appreciate you both!
Lovely poem at the end.

That is a beautiful poem Candice❤
Excellent discussion.
Gosh, that poem was absolutely beautiful!
Very helpful. I resonate! ❤
I remembered the 31 day game and since today is the 25th, I got rid of 25 things. It got tricky around 18 for some reason.
They're not called tweets anymore, they're called X-cretions.
😆🤣
Brilliant
Every time I get repairs done where I live, I rent things are stolen. So I just need to get more repairs done!
First ❤i send you all my love 💕 you rock guys
Anyone else get the 80s song “there’s a fraction too much friction” from this convo? Lol
Pleased your still on utube x
Thank you for the encouraging story of the evil spirits from the Bible .. good reminder :)
I guess you decided to stay on social media. 😊 That's alright. It's hard to get away from all of it.
I think they were referring to other platforms? i do not see them interact in you tube comments much
@heathero2l Well, youtube is still social media, so I assumed they'd be off here as well. I'm socializing with you. Therefore, it's also a social platform.But who knows. A lot of people still keep youtube as it's a great platform, in my opinion.

Big hugs are not minimal. Simplify with smaller hugs
Hi MINIMALISTS:
What happened to you leaving social media (& TH-cam?) for the rest of 2024? In fact: Why am I seeing 😮this? Was the last episode click bait? Where’s your integrity your word?
i am assuming they do not include youtube as social media...some people do, some people dont.
@@heathero2l possibly so… However, if you review the episode there was emphasis on TH-cam stating , they were not monetized, and were giving it up.
I can’t stand two faced hypocrites that can’t abide by their own standards.
How are we to know they aren’t truly monetized? Tell me: Is there proof?
I’m likely unsubscribing. They won’t care. Believe it.
i rewatched it and you are right it sounded like they were agreeing with Cal's suggestion. I have no idea but I want to quit watching youtube!!
@@heathero2l Thank You. I at least appreciate your comment and for going back to listen.
I just like when people can actually have the backbone they claim to… now the “minimalists” possess minimal credibility.
It seems like a lot of people were wondering too, maybe they will address it. I get you!

Please stop With the facial Expressions for the TH-cam algorithm. You guys are better than that.
Is this a joke? 😂 I haven’t watched the whole thing, but I didn’t see any odd expressions? I personally am not a fan of an expressionless, botoxed face.
@@PeaceIsJesusChristthe way Josh acts acts like a submissive male he's a male not a female
What does this mean? I’ve not heard about facial expressions being read for the YT algorithm before.
i am assuming they were talking about the thumbnail photos
Dont worry about it
