    We humans waste astonishing amounts of money on collecting unwanted items and then spend the rest of the lives throwing them out. What a waste! We should think many times before adding a single item to our shopping list. Always think how you can do without it. Materials don't add value to your life. Peace is what adds value to your life. The more you throw out the more you become happy. You are creating space both physically and mentally.

    Me and my husband had to start minimalism. There was one time he was like I DONT HAVE SHIRTS TO WEAR! I counted all his shirts that night and counted 74 shirts and 8 pants. I told him afterwards, he was very disappointed with himself. We started to sort out his clothes, sold some and then donated most. Now he has 15 shirts and is very happy with it. He gets to wear all of them in 2 weeks (just in time for laundry) and we have so much closet space! IT is the way to go

    The sentimental thing is the hardest thing to do, few days ago I was in tough dilemma. I kept my late father’s t-shirt, but every time I see it, it only brings sad memories, it was the t-shirt he used on his last days. I finally decided to get rid of it. My memory of him should not be attached on a mere t-shirt. It should be more than that. Always love your video Sophie...

    I can only imagine the great deal of courage and acceptance to let go of that t-shirt. I can't speak from experience because I don't think I ever had to let go of something with such significance. I think you amazing for letting it go and for knowing that his memories will always be with you.

    I actually had this same issue yesterday. My mom passed away last year on Halloween. My sister and I each took only a few items a piece and one of mine was a shirt of hers. Since she had dementia she was in a home and therefore her initials are written on the tag of a shirt, just like a child's would be if they were in daycare... I put the shirt on yesterday and felt so sad when I saw the initials... It made me remember her as she was in the end instead of how she was when she was well. I think it may be time to let that one go... I'm so thankful to see your comment and know I'm not alone with this feeling.

    Im going to try this. Im at a point of being so overwhelmed it is effecting my mental health and i have no idea where to start. If i sit down i feel so guilty. I cant enjoy my home or anything i love bc my home is over run with stuff. Yet i cant let a lot of the stuff go and think i will need it. A lot of things just dont have a home and i know the majority is still good and usuable and wouldnt make sense to throw out bc we would have to repurchase so its tiring and chaotic trying to sort and organize and bc we need a lot of the stuff it feels like very little is being donated/sold/trash. Were a family of 2 adults and 5 kids so we have accumulated a lot of stuff. Im going to give this a really good shot bc it seems realistic and not overwhelming. Thank you for the video🙏❤

    Just found your channel and love it! Everyone, if you want to donate clothes (or really any other items) to a nonprofit, please, please, please call ahead. I used to work at a homeless center and oversaw donations like this. You wouldn't believe all the clutter we had because people dropped things off we didn't even need/couldn't even store in mass amounts. This made the clients who already struggled with anxiety, high levels of stress, and mental illness to be even more overwhelmed with all of the stuff. Not all orgs have a huge volunteer/staff base to sort all the stuff.

Who wants to spend all their time dusting each item when you can free yourself and have more time for you and what is important to you. I use to scrapbook and have so much stuff that is what I need to work on. This video is very calm and enjoyable as well. I am now a follower of yours and look forward to more videos. 😊👍 🌺

    Excellent video as usual, didn’t see any quotes this time but I always like when you include them. You’re very beautiful & your husband is a lucky man. As far as this dumpster fire of 2020, I’ve realized a few things. *Need to limit spending, especially online. I’ve bought more online this year than any other. Yea, I could blame it on COVID but I could also limit my spending on unnecessary things. I’m pretty minimalist as it is but spending like this and I won’t be for long. * Focusing on myself and not trying to seek external validation to make me feel like I’m worthy. I always try to go out of my way and be nice to people and sorry to say it’s not really worth it. Everyone seems fake & superficial nowadays and I’m guilty of trying to please people that really don’t matter. So going forward, I’m just going to focus on me. My inputs, habits, outputs and just my overall health. I’m tired of people.

    I find myself spending way more if I buy stuff online, so this is something I am definitely working on. When I go into the store, I usually stop when the basket feels heavy and it limits me from over spending. Love what you said about feeling self worth when we let go of external validation. I think this is why I am so attracted to slow living because I can just concentrate on myself and what I love doing. More quotes coming up in future videos :)

    I am definitely trying to organize my junk drawer the best I can :) some things I need to keep because I'm also quite frugal. Hahah aww I actually love flipping through the photo albums, but digitizing them definitely organizes it more. Thanks for the comment

    I prefer Stone Age photos. When my daughter was a baby, that was common. Now that she's older, I only have phone photos and it's getting hardet to find a place you can print them out.

    This video motivates me a lot. You know Sophie, the way you talk is simple and clear so it is easy to understand and comfortable to watch for the people like me, who don't speak English as a first language. I need to declutter my twin boys room for 7 days. By the way, I also like the Korean multi grain powder '미숫가루' in your kitchen :)

    I've been so excited to watch this video, I've saved it to watch while decluttering cause I thought it would give me some much needed motivation haha 😅 I don't know about you but I often find that I have a stint of time where I declutter loads and make good headway then a few months later I feel like I need to declutter all over again! I haven't quite reached my "clicking point" with the volume of material possessions I have but hopefully I'll get there someday. Thanks for the inspiration!

    I feel the same way Kat! Even being very conscious of what I buy and what comes into my home, I feel the need to declutter my space again and again. I wonder if there is a certain point where I will be just happy with the things I have. I hope to get there someday too

    I really like your comment about how much you paid for an item should not determine whether we keep it or throw it away. It should always be about what brings you the most value, whether you paid a lot of it, or a little. We can really get attached to things that we paid a lot for...but those items can become more of a burden than something that adds value. But I'm basically guilty of everything listed in this video. I will actually be spending some time this Thanksgiving to declutter my apartment, and I definitely know about a lot of stuff than needs to go. Love the content Sophie! Like- 103
