I feel like I identify with most of the categories you pointed out and I will add one, "Overwhelmed Ogre" just so hard to start or feel like there is a light at the end of the tunnel when there is so much to do. I would love it if you would bring back the weekly declutter challenges on the FB group even if they just kept repeating the same space every so often, it really helps to feel like I am making progress with the group and sharing wins!

@MinimalistHome Год назад

Oooh, that’s a good one!

@SimpleLife365 Год назад

Oh! YES! I know this one!!😂

@bellaluce7088 Год назад

Such a great term! ❤My Overwhelmed Ogre kept me stuck for YEARS! Things that have really helped are clutter-clearing and maintaining the spaces directly in my line of sight from where I spend the most time, and the Onion Method of removing easiest things first (bonus for large or bulky items) to see faster progress. Also setting a reminder alarm + X minutes decluttering with a timer + temptation bundling with something I already like to do (e.g. watch TV). I wish I'd known years ago that there's an easier way to declutter, and that even though there's still lots to do, taking action makes me feel so much better right away!

I literally just baked muffins this morning instead of cleaning up the paperwork piled up on my kitchen table. 😂 I think I needed to hear this. Thanks for your advice and encouragement.

Oh that sounds familiar! LOL - how’s it going? 🌷🤞🏼🙏🏼

@Bekind1969 Год назад

My way to let go of sentimental items is to take pictures of it and put the photo stored in "memories". Helped me get rid of all my kids preschool,/elementary school art projects.

@bellaluce7088 Год назад

This is one of my favorite tips too! A single photo of a table or bedspread covered with items can be a treasure trove of memories!

I haven't taken the quiz yet, but I am very nostalgic. I like to save receipts and mementos from trips (not every single one, but a few here and there) because I find it interesting to see how much (or little) certain things cost over the course of a lifetime. I like to scrapbook, so I have receipts sprinkled throughout my albums :) I just went through my memory boxes yesterday and threw out some stuff. mostly blurry photos (why did I ever keep those?) and greeting cards with just a signature, no personalized message.

I' m not really into minimalism ( i like the decluttering part though) but i watch these videos for you - because of your joyful attitude and pleasant personality😊 Thank you so much for your work. Love from Poland

@MinimalistHome Год назад

Aww, thanks!

@debbiemclean1090 Год назад

Oh yes definitely the motivation medusa, however i do have to be careful because when i beat her for one day it often leads to weeks of not being able to do anything else. This is when my disabilities are the most annoying as i have difficulty pacing myself xxxxxxx

The utmost gain with decluttering has been that I can say no to stuff I really do not like and that still has been part of my or my families life. Empowering feeling! I think this has something to do also withregaining one's creativity and trust in one' own choices. Even when one has or has had relatives who have always belittled your choices or rubbed your nose in mishaps but never really celebrated wirh you your achievements.

@MinimalistHome 9 месяцев назад

Hooray to continued empowerment! 💪🏼👍🏼✨

@rachellyddon78 Год назад

Honestly, my biggest problem is knowing what to do with the stuff once I've decluttered it - so often there are things too good to throw away but not good enough for the charity shop or to sell and I get really stuck knowing what to do with them!

@jmsl_910 Год назад

i once held a Pay As You Wish sale in my driveway! that worked really well.

@bellaluce7088 Год назад

I can relate to this! I sometimes just put out a box on the sidewalk marked FREE. : - ) Animal shelters often need old blankets and towels, and last I checked Goodwill recycled clothing that's not sellable, but might need to check your local Goodwill's policies. EDIT: I've also given away toiletries I don't like to friends. : - )

@rebeccaellis5892 Год назад

I think I identify with the nostalgia one the best.

The memory box is great! Except not 10 large memory boxes 🥴 I will get there!

Baking can be a part of decluttering though. I recently went through my pantry and picked out several items. I basically challenged myself to use them up and put them on the kitchen counter, so they're constantly in the way. And since I had a lot of sprinkles, cocoa powder, etc. I used them up by baking banana breads. Otherwise it probably would've taken me years to use them up.

I have put things in boxes for family history, at present I am inputting all the information and photos into my ancestry account, after I have put photos, taken by family into the tree I put into the bin, I don’t need them, if they are of my children I have put into memory boxes for each child and I plan to give to them . If these photos were done by a professional I have put them into the account and then into my memory box . My children are getting their stuff back that they made for me I’ve kept

my clutter critter... black shoes & books...reminds me of when i was smart!!

@MinimalistHome 5 месяцев назад

Oh I’m sure you’re still smart! I see your point though. How’s it going with those? Are there a few that are worth keeping and using?

@jennyjenkins877 Год назад

I'm an Indecisive Imp but I usually come around and declutter whatever I couldn't decide about eventually.

@janetbransdon3742 Год назад

I saw a photo today of when I lived in a 2 bedroom apartment and I realised there was no clutter. Now I live in a 3 bedroom house on my own and I own so much clutter... need to purge.

@MinimalistHome 5 месяцев назад

I’ve had realizations like this too. It seems illogical in ways, but it’s that when we think we have so much space, we are at risk of over-accumulating!
