Mel, are you not just blown away by Dana White! She is fabulous! Thanks for bringing her to your followers.
I love Dana❣
I think we have the same brain.
Organizing and decluttering a two completely different things in my mind. Personally I have to declutter before I can organize.
What’s great is Dana’s method is progress and only progress!
I started doing the pick up technique. My mind is blown away. It's easy, effective and super satisfying. I feel like crying from joy. I am saved!! It's absolute miracle. Obviously the creative people needed this lady to come and save us.
Another method I found was from a 1950s Housekeeping magazine. You grab a large clothes basket and start in the entryway of your home, and gather anything that doesn't belong (including trash) into the basket. Then you move to the next room and repeat, but also take anything from the previous room(s) that belongs in your current room out of the basket and put it away. Once you get to the last room of your house, head back towards the entryway unloading anything that remains.
I’m confused 😅
@@cupcake2023..at the end you will have only things that either belong in the first room or trash, which you will return to where it belongs (if it is trash, then it goes into the trashcan.)
@@dianaklien1560 thanks for explaining makes so much sense 😝
@@cupcake2023..confused brainwave blown I had a new bed I had to De-clutter my bedroom 🤮😱🥵total clear floor ACHIEVMENT , Accomplisments 👍👏
Folks with ADHD would just end up with a doom basket
I haven’t even finished watching and I’m already filled with hope ( had chores to do). I’m 78, live by myself and never have visitors because I’m ashamed of my clutter. I’d just decide (at my age) I’m simply a slob!!! Yay‼️I’m filled with renewed hope. Thank you ❤️😁🌹
The son’s jacket thing. Another question, after the first two questions. Here it is, “Is there somebody else in my community whose life will be made more bearable, even joyful, if they had this?” There are so many kids in the Northeast Kingdom in Vermont or in Rutland, for instance, who really, really need that jacket. Really, kids who have the most threadbare, beaten up, ill-fitting, totally inadequate winter jackets. Rather than hanging onto it just in case someone visits, think of that kid in NEK. It’s better off on his back than collecting dust in a closet. So many of us are so blessed. What if we all flip the script and say, “My son has already been blessed with this jacket. Who can I bless with this amazing, beautiful jacket, barely worn, that no longer fits my son. For whom would this jacket be a real, true luxury? What struggling Vermont mom will be SO excited to pick out this barely worn, high-end winter jacket for her much-loved son?” Can you imagine her, finding this gem at the local community clothes closet? 🎉🎉🎉! This jacket is destined to bless that kid, just like it blessed yours, every winter day (until he outgrows it).
Perfect
Amazing, pls have more content like this🙌🙌🙏
👍🙏😘🙏
Omg! This is greatness! I was able today to decluttef gor 2.5 hours and i cant wIt yo do lore tomorrow! These tips will work and dud work today! Im super excited!!! I realize now my mistakes and these techniques will work for my brain!
OMG!!!! My two favorite people!!! So glad you had Dana on!!!!
This lady makes so much sense to me. I can relate to what she says very easily. Thank you for saying, “I could beat myself up, or . . .” And, Mel, I also get frozen about getting rid of items I might need. I have used the one time that I gave away something that I later needed as the reason to not get rid of things. So silly that now I don’t even remember what it was.
And I love the not perfect, just better concept. I get tripped up on perfect. I’m going to start asking myself if it’s better than it was and leave it at that.
The Synchronicity taking place still amazes me. I am on the 10th minute and i m like THANK YOU UNIVERSE! I ve been straggling with this all my life and i have made a lot of progress and created methods to make this better and find tricks to help me progress and just the rephrasing i just heart, will make a lot of difference! I ll keep listening!
Thank you
0mmppp
I have a decorative box on the coffee table to put TV remotes, nail clippers, nail files in, works great
GOOD IDEA!!! THANKS!
I love watching two people I love talk to each other.
Buying new shelves was exactly how I used to be. Container principle is life changing. ❤
I can listen to this with Dana over & over. So much sense. Now I need a large manila envelope. Where are they... lol ... Glenda
Nice language. I was watching this with my kids in the room.
lol extra clothes for people who visit- just did that yesterday with a coat.
Game changer for me this talk ....don't keep shuffling it around if you don't need or want it and have never really thought about it as you keep reshuffling it 😐🙄😄✊🏻🙏🏻 thank you both
OMG, it's the first decluttering system that makes sense for me! ❤
Honestly knowing that you struggle with this too has helped me so much.
I feel so identified with you Mel. It is so hard to declutter 💔
I love the part where she says "I have steps!!!" This set me free. Thank you one and all.
I realized around easter time, that my clutter my whole life has been a tool for me to isolate due to C-PTSD (because of childhood trauma). I have done some healing, and realized that I can not heal in isolation (learned that on TH-cam). I started decluttering in the storage room, continuing with closets and drawers around my home, full of trash and paper clutter, really. My logic is that I need a place to store things we need and use that I find along the way while decluttering. I got rid of my wardrobe closet because I need more floor space, found better storage for my clothes, got rid of the clothes I don’t love. Moved around furniture to make my space better. My space is still cluttered on the surface, but my storage room is very neat. I took a long break from decluttering and my home is still a mess. I need to start decluttering surface clutter and go out with the trash that have been bothering me for many days, like empty cardboard boxes, paper, etc. I have approximately 8 boxes left to go through, cluttering up my living room. I think the method of decluttering starting on surfaces will work for me now that I have room in drawers. I still feel the pull towards keeping the clutter, but I continue in order to create a better life for me and my kids. By the way, they are inspired too and have been hard core decluttering and tidying up their rooms. Our goal, stuff-wise, is to keep only the things we need and love and seasonal stuff. The last things we will sort out is sentimental things, I am thinking to keep a box or two but I havent decided yet.
This is exactly what I needed today! Listening while I'm cleaning up my house and literally switched gears and started this process and am already seeing a big difference in progress! Thank you!! ❤
Thank you this was awesome information like you it blew me away
🖐😷👍✝️🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Omg life changing. Gracias
Such helpful steps to decluttering. Thank you bith.Mel, please find replacement word for f bombs.
I love the idea of asking where would you put it?
Because sometimes when I look where it’s “supposed” to be and it’s there I’m shocked and I usually don’t look there first 😂😂😂
Thank you for bringing this amazing and relatable expert on your podcast
I agree, but I myself, love to know where everything is at and so, I need to have everything clean and organized. Clear the corners of your home so good vibes flow into your home, everyday. Someone once told me, IF you haven't looked at your clutter for over 30 days, it's not that important to keep. So you must start on one room at a time, then automatically, you will start organizing in every room, little by little. Just DO it, like the Nike commercial. Nobody is coming to help you declutter. That is something you have to do all on your own. And once you do do it, you'll feel great and accomplished; a great big load off of your shoulders and then you start taking care of yourself and making progress in all areas of your life.💯💓
that one just doesnt seem right.
Great talk!! Learned something… some of us - this is very perplexing!!!! 😂😂😂😂 like me - my brain wwwwhat?
Late to this party! Thank you ✅
Thank you for this decluttering video Mel this is very helpful to me step by step decluttering my house and garage
High 5 Mel🖐😷👍✝️
Who is your Guest speaker expert????? She is brilliant! Thank you for bringing her on your podcast Mel Robbins!!! 🤩
Dana K White
Omg Mel! I think exactly like this. 😳🙄
Looove this discussion. Thanks a lot. ❤
I’m so early!! 💕
Im a picture of family, and paintings on the one wall from my daughter's art and my granddaughter Auroras art and other paintings from others, I'm a plant person , I'm starting to feel congested lately, in having a yard sale this weekend
I wish I can send you a video of my living room, I rearranged the furniture after my Narcissist ex boyfriend moved out
Also thank you for the comment I'm gonna make this space better, I've been working on that matter of fact ☺️
I'm thinking if I get picture frames bigger with more spots on the bigger picture frame I can get decluttering less picture frames
If I consistently take more than a quick trip through the house to find my keys or my glasses, I know I have too much and need to declutter.
This is so good.
One of my other friends had the idea of putting things in bags and opening and taking care of one bag at a time; this seems to be especially helpful in bereavement for clearing as I've found.
Needed this today
I have ADHD and herding disorder... This podcast is giving me anxiety but not more than what I'm supposed to do now
I heard this once and it helped me. Your anxiety is not from getting rid of things, it's from holding onto things. Pretend that every single object in your house has a voice and it's telling you to do something with it. The dishes are looking at you saying "Wash me!" and your laundry is saying "Fold me!" and your bills are yelling "Pay me!" and your dog is saying "Walk me!" and your closet is saying "Organize me! Donate me! I fell off my hanger! You haven't worn me since 1978!" etc... all of these voices create noise! Your home feels like chaos because everything is talking and making demands of you. Everytime you tackle something, it shuts up and the more you do, the quieter and more peaceful life gets. It's so true..and when I imagine my house this way, it really helps. Might work for you too!
Read her books. They are great!
@@laurieclarkson9180 this brilliant 👏 because I think it used that mechanism where we can do things for others and not ours, so you are turning these objects into persons with needs and demands.
@@justanothergigi Could you give me titles that your read and how they helped you?
What is herding disorder?? Does that mean you herd folks.?
For the more valuable items, take them to a consignment store first. You can make back some of the money and you feel more justified. If they don’t accept them then donate.
Dana White is my all time hero! She just gets it 😄
18:12 Thank God she said, "Where will…" after saying 'would'. I refrain/from calling the woulda, coulda, shoulda sisters.
Gracias!!!
Yeah. My husband thought I'm crazy 😂.
People are different so are organizing styles…visual people need things to be visual and easy to grab things…
❤❤❤
Mind blown....container
It's 4:45am here
802am in NYC
7:58 1)Start with Trash - easy to start. If you have to think about it ( is this trash ? ) skip it till next process.
11:28 2)Return to its home. These are items that already have a place
12:28 3)Duh Donate - box must donate too.
16:12 here we look at 2 ?’s … 4) if i need this - Where would “I look First ?” eg fingernail clippers? TAKE IT THERE NOW. < grrrr… even if there are too many steps to get there. The Rational is that we/I will get distracted and I’m left with piles and boxes of interrupted incompletions >
Trash vs donate ?/Mel A: These questions on value can derail a good clean up …. These are Value decisions < which are hard to make>. 27:48 Mel noticing the added drama that “we” suffer ( because of the Value questions. ) in our analytical mind. Her process bypasses the value questions.
26:11 what to do when the “home for the item” is a mess - what in here am i willing to get rid of? To make space for the valued item.
31:05 If I needed this item ?Would it ever occur to me that i already have one. ??
38:37 after all the above … bringing things to the instinctual home - IF its OVER FLOWING -
5) the Container theory of how much will fit in this container called / closet / room / house / garage.
Serves as a limit - boundary. Putting the favorite things in the container first . ( this helps with value desicions … if the favorite things in first …. Then the Container makes the decision for me on what to keep .
IMHO, I don't think Mel even needed to ask herself those questions about the stuff her son had already decluttered on his own. He's done the work. All she needed to do was take it to the donation center for him. She invalidates his choice to be rid of his own clutter by sifting through the bags he already sorted through and pulling things out she wanted to hang on to.
Who is Decluttering Expert Mel is talking to please?
Dana K White, she has written several books on decluttering. Her “take it there now” and “container concept” are genius.
maybe set thinks called trash. anxiety about being poor or needing something you threw . or yeah decisions anxiety.
right now i hate moving things and never know where things are. but all junked around.. see it or hide behind drawers.
❤
But for me the value question already comes at the donate stage .. so I’m already stumped here??!!
12052023 Thank You for this episode. I procrastinated on watching this video, I even slept through it twice. While driving the school bus, it finally hit me...the "take it there NOW!" method worked for me.
I live in a small apartment and my dining table has been cluttered all year. Today, I cleared it off in an hour.
Thank you Mel, I love it that you cuss.
Thank you Dana for the insight.
I will do more of this daily to have a decluttered life. 22:47
Maybe I'm just daydreaming, but what if the problem becomes that there is not decluttering to do when I have the drive to work. It reminds me of the problem of knowing when to stop painting a painting. At that time pointless rearranging might occur. Could the intimidation of a blank canvas be experienced since decluttering is like removing paint from a painting? Just saying. It's a nice problem to have.
Loved this interview and the fact based process! I added Mel’s “54321” strategy to the “take it there now” phase of decluttering.
he may have spilled on it or it smells. I went same with sone id pick through what he going to throw out... and he quit frustrated...
I really liked seeing Dana White, as I have watched some of her other decluttering videos. What I have a hard time with is Mel's potty mouth.
I felt like Mel's swearing didn't add value to the conversation. I was listening to this podcast with little kids around and had to quickly stop the video and move to another place to finish it. Swearing from such a knowledgeable and terrific person like Mel isn't edifying. Please drop the swears in the future.
How u damn start if ue brain is frozen
I can’t enjoy the conversation, bc Mel throws “F Bombs” & uses other foul language. She is so intelligent, so why does she have to curse?
people who 'curse' are not necessarily unintelligent they just don't see these words as a terrible thing! Don't judge so much, live and let live
😑
Love Mel Robbins. Have always liked Dana. So I watched this, and Mel's use of the F word was very off-putting. Makes me never ever want to say the F word again in my life. Cringe
Stop using 4 letter words. It adds nothing and is juvenile. Declutter your speech
I LOOOOOOVED ❤ the conversation about CONTAINERS! 🫨
