Hi Lia I'm so glad I found your channel and I've been watching all your content. It's so amazing to see a woman on youtube who also doesn't wear makeup. I can look at my face after watching you and enjoy even more the natural way I look. You have such a genuine smile and I love your content
Hello, Lia. I wouldn't call myself a minimalist -- maybe an essentialist. However, I have done a year-end declutter for decades. I loved shredding unnecessary papers, donating unwanted clothing, etc. I try to keep an eye on digital clutter, and I am in the process of looking through my Google Photos. I recently started a new role with a new team, and there is so much to learn. I receive so many emails, and I haven't learned what is relevant and what isn't. I have set up folders to file away the items that I think may be useful in the next few months. As for my personal email account -- I really need to be ruthless and declutter old emails. I have SO many! Have a happy holiday, and here's a healthy, happy, and prosperous 2021.
Merry Christmas to you Lia and everyone popping by here. It's been a pleasure to watch your videos this year and see your channel grow. Here's to many more!
I need to digitize some well most of my papers I have kept! Good idea about scanning them! I will do that and put them on my computer!! Yay! Can’t wait to do that tomorrow I did clean my room today and that was good! Can’t wait to declutter some more!
Great tips Lia. I must also sort through papers, documents and ...... Wishing you, your partner and darling son a Happy Christmas and all the best for 2021.
I need to do some digital decluttering, thanks for the reminder! I also need to make a video soon on my wardrobe... Maybe I should invest in a planner and a good hard drive haha, thank you for another amazing video Lia!!
Hi Lia! A question I always ask myself when decluttering around the end of the year is "Do I want this x thing in my life during the next year of my life?". Of course this can apply to whatever context someone might need (month, day, specific situation etc). I find it easier to rid of something this way, because if the answer is "no", then I really don't need/want this item in my life. It also means that this item isn't necessary for my life moving forward, therefore, I can leave it behind.
I also love to declutter my digital clutter--form stuff on my computer to my bookmarks, saved pages, etc. It is so nice to have things in order and just get rid of things I don't need or rearrange bookmarks with ones I use more frequently. Slowly moving towards a minimalist lifestyle but hoping to get there at my own pace! Thank you for being so real!
I work from home and have a tendency to forget to get rid of documents created for clients that they already have but I don't need to save. Fortunately, they're moving to a cloud-based platform so I won't have that issue going into 2021. But your video reminded me I need to do some year-end housekeeping. I'm fairly bad with papers. I like to write things down but never quite get around to throwing those notes away. I've started, with some success, keeping a digital scratch pad in an Excel document. I can type out something quickly and then just delete it when I no longer need it. To make it actually work though I had to get rid of the pens that were on my desk :)
Thanks for sharing Lia, I think that digital decluttering can be easily overlooked sometimes but I think that it's equally as important to our mental health in preventing us from becoming overwhelmed.
Recently try to organize old photos sice the 1960's and older from my family. My father digitalized them, but for my interests there are too many so I have to sort through. I will be so happy, when I'll have finished. On my daily basis with mails and smartphone-downloads/pictures and stuff I'm up to date. It feels so overwhelming if not. Danke für deinen Content, Lia, und für dich und deine Familie frohe Festtage!
Decluttering end of the year paperwork and setting up my new calendar are two things I do each December. It feels good to unload the paper and plan for a fresh new year.
Thanks for reminding me about the importance of digital decluttering! I would definitely appreciate learning how you store your important paperwork. That would be really helpful.
For me it is files & paperwork. My accountant doesn't do digital. He requires a hard copy of everything. It can be a lot of paper. I keep an accordion file for it all, which helps it from becoming overwhelming. As for tech, I only have my phone. I keep it pretty simple. My personal email is for friends & family only. My work email has been stupid with all the Covid emails that relate to constant changes in my industry. Out side of those 2 categories, the other 2 areas I review are books and craft supplies. I still prefer physical books because I spend too much time in front of screens & libraries are not an option. Craft supplies need to be decluttered because I had no time in 2020 for any hobbies as work was super crazy because of Covid. I am considering giving away my craft supplies as 2021 already looks like I will have no time for hobbies as we are having to do restructuring, reeducation and recertification in my industry in 2021. Everything else I keep to essentials only (clothing, accessories, beauty, kitchen, linens, etc).
Bei 50 Dingen glaube ich das gerne! Ich habe zwar ein paar mehr aber ich merke schon dass es bei mir eben meist auch kaum etwas gibt weil ich sehr gut weiss was ich habe und was ich brauche ☺
@@ecofriendlia das ist ein tolles Gefühl. Manchmal bin ich etwas traurig, dass ich nichts mehr ausmisten kann, da mir ausmisten viel Spaß macht. 😂 Ich wünsche euch noch schöne, besinnliche Feiertage liebe Lia 🥰
Hi Lia, as a minimalist do you set goals for 2021? Can you walk us through your process and what your goals are as a minimalist:) keep up the videos, I really enjoy your channel.
I read my journal from this year in the days between christmas and sylvester. I reflect and set a few goals for the next year. Have a merrry Christmas! Do you speak german? I'm from Germany, too.
Merci für das mega video. I ha jetzt als ziel weniger screan shots und fotos zmache🤣 i mache immer vil z vil... und ha när stunde zum lösche. Oder tuesä nid is album und findes nieee meh
Hey Lia, just curious do you keep all personal/ family photos in your phone or do you also declutter your phone regularly? Sometimes I feel like keeping all photos in my phone because I feel like revisiting them a lot....but it is a lot of stuff on my phone! So just wondering what do you do
I keep the pictures I took on my phone on there, but I take most of the pictures with my camera :) But if I had the feeling that I can't find things on my phone because of all the pictures or if I didn't have space anymore I would delete (some of) them on my phone :)
01:00 For me it just makes so much sense to clear the inbox while reading my mails. That way I never have to do this hourlong “getting rid of email thing” ever again. I did that once with many many emails and it was a pain in the a**... 😅

Ha! I had to watch this twice because I kept getting distracted by decluttering my phone. Thanks for the inspiration!

@Watson Asa Definitely, I have been watching on Kaldrostream for since november myself :D

I would like to see how you organize a document folder! I struggle to organize important paper documents.
Happy Christmas time! And thank you for the reminder to go through the email pile I have 😅
Merry Christmas Lia and family.
Schönes Video. Ich habe nichts was ich ausmisten kann. Ich besitze ca. 50 Dinge und die brauche ich alle 😂
