Your Chinese pronunciation is pretty good when you speak sentence regarding Great Wall! The tone is right! I am from Beijing! Beijing is really great worthy traveling there! I have been watching your video for a while. This is the first time I left a message in your channel!
Thank you! Yes, I’m fluent in Mandarin - I learned it to be able to communicate with my in-laws. ☺️ My BIL is from Beijing too! Fingers crossed travel is safe soon. 🤞
@@AtoZenLife Hi Marisa! I have been watching your inspiring videos here in Arlington (Northern), Virginia. I thank you so much for all of your insights. My sons both lived in China (teaching English). I have a grandson now who is half-Chinese. How did you best learn your Mandarin? I know only a little. One more question-I enjoyed watching your vision board creation. Where did you get your minimalist wired holder. I become overwhelmed or distracted with huge usual patterns in these padded ones. I like your simple (minimalist!) one. Congrats on your reaching your goals. Xie xie and danke schoen. I have studied French and Spanish-but not these two! Bucket list!! Ttfn.
For the buy-nothing thing, I'm going to try for all of 2022, for the categories of clothing, shoes and hobby items. I'm going to use up all the yarn that I have to make gifts for others, and use the supplies that I have accumulated for other hobbies that are being neglected.
Hey Marissa, toll, was du alles letztes Jahr erreicht hast! 👏 Dein Deutsch klingt super! Weiter so! 👍 Ich schaue mir deine Videos sehr gerne an. Du hast immer gute Tipps und da ich gerade selbst ausmiste, helfen sie mir, motiviert zu bleiben. Danke! 😊
Connection over comparison. Amen. Thanks so much for sharing your vision board journey. The wound and the light - got me all teary-eyed. It was because of you that I made my first real vision board last year and my life legit transformed as a result.. Thankful to have met you on this journey and soooo excited for what is to come! Updating my vision board right now. Let's manifest the heck out of 2022!!!
This video was so calming and beautiful, thank you so much for sharing. I am starting a massive declutter this year so am focusing on that, on homeschooling my son, and on ikigai. It’s been a very very difficult time for me and I’m so looking forward to a new phase of my life when I’m not so emotionally or physically held back by all the stuff around us. Watching your video I don’t feel so alone.
Love watching your vision board creations in action. It's calming and inspiring. I loop your videos while I declutter, and hearing you in the background is motivating. Thank you Marissa! Ikigai ganbaremashou!
Marissa, I'm new to your channel, and I absolutely love it! I am getting many great ideas and so much inspiration. I love watching your videos! I printed your budget package a few days ago and am really looking forward to working on that. I soooo much LOVE your vision board idea!!! You inspired me to make one last night, and I love it so much! This really captures all my current goals and intentional thinking. I would love to show it to you! Are we able to add photos here? You are awesome, Marissa! Thank you for being here and encouraging all of us!
I discovered your channel a few days ago and I'm binge watching your videos. You're so inspiring and motivating. Thank you so much. Greetings from Germany 😘
I’ve only just discovered your channel and I’m currently making my way through every video! I’m absolutely loving your content! Can I just say, don’t give up on plants just yet, I just got a very lovely plant that I’ve heard is absolutely hardy and doesn’t take much upkeep at all and the benefit of clean air they give your home is such a bonus! Try the snake plant, Latin name ‘Sansevieria’ - ours is a beautiful tall deep green variety and looks so gorgeous! Good luck with your vision board, I hope everything you manifest comes true for 2022, you deserve it! 💗
I´m from Germany.Did i already mention, that I really like your speech. I understand almost every word. I love to listen to you. Of course, I also like your videos very much.
I love you/your chanel! I am from Germany and your pronunciation is great. I can follow you so easy I love it to listen to you. Great job! Keep up the good work! You have gained a new loyal subscriber. 😍
This is so good! Thank you for walking us through your process. I'm about ready to do a vision board but I feel like this video will help me take it to the next level.
I must say I am so happy to see you posting again and hope you had enough time to refresh with your family while you were away. Glad to have to back though 🥰
I made a screensaver vision board after last year’s video and I just made this years, some ideas of how to work towards the goals would be really helpful because while focusing on what matters is great how to make things happen is still not something I can quite make happen! Thank you Marissa xx
Wonderful Tabitha! Did you catch this video? ua-cam.com/video/7QXV-EfWUOM/v-deo.html - there are also some blog posts linked that are very helpful (check the description). I’m all about combining vision board + goals. ✨
You're definitely the minimalism G.O.A.T.! You deserve all the followers and all the success, your channel is so inspiring! ❤ Btw wooooow, you must have such a knack for languages (and I am sure your degree also helps you with pronunciation), because your German sounds absolutely amazing!!!
I am going focus on "Wabi Sabi" the art of imperfection. I have not done a vision board in a long time and goals were out the window when i retired 2 years ago. I felt depressed and paralyzed in my decluttering journey, then found channels on Minimalism this is changing my life " hee hee" my word of the year is CHANGE. I want to change and stop being afraid of change. I think setting some goals and creating a vision board will help me to achive my first goal is to embrace change and decluttering is all about change. Thanks So Much!!!!!
Hi from Australia! We call them Galahs. A cockatoo is white with yellow crest. Bust also one of my favourite animals ❤ Love, luck and prosperity to you. Xx
i loved watching your vision board last year and your vision board this year! thanks for updating us on your journey. always inspired by what you're doing. cinque terra is on my travel vision list too 😍
Maybe you can get an intentional cockatoo print for your wall something that conserve as a happy little reminder of your father and maybe curb any kind of impulsion because it would be a deliberate thing to have in your life. Also ... You could possibly find an animal sanctuary that has them and you could hold them or take pictures of them or make a new memory with your family there. I am a big fan of nostalgia too. I'm a highly sentimental person for Christmas this year I gifted my family's print copy of the exact cookbook my mother always cooked with when we were growing up. It was practical and nostalgic and well received.
Fabulous video Melissa, I have missed watching your channel. Thank you for sharing, inspiring, motivating and creating hope, I have sooooo needed this🌺🌺🌺
Congratulations on reaching 100K subscribers! My son’s channel has reached 97.4K. It’s so exciting! We’re planning a big celebration dinner! Also thank you for your vision board reminder. I did that once too and it worked! You’ve inspired me to think about making another one.
I just have to tell you that I watch every episode. I am visually impaired with very little vision and am also ironically episode of learner. Keep up the good work and good luck to Mr. Zen. He is so cute he will get a job in no time! There’s something wrong with me he’s half my age lol
Wonderful wonderful wonderful I follow a lot of people on UA-cam and I must say I watch you all the way to the end!! I always get inspired and I always learn something too! Happy New Year to you and your wonderful family and all your subscribers!💞
🚪 I've been watching a few of your videos, and I really love your humor and compassion! When I was 12 I was called a pack rat, and since then I've been battling with myself, trying to figure out what to keep and what to donate. Can you make a video of what items to use when traveling on a plane? Sorry if you already have! -lamb
So....despite everyone being jabbed in my family.....on Jan 4, 2022 we all came down with omnicron! YAY! (not really!) Ok...so it was a head cold. But the lack of energy hit HARD! I'm going to give myself so much GRACE and pretend that February is actually the beginning of 2022! I want to give the vision board a go! Thanks for the inspo Marissa!
Totally random comment, but you've mentioned before that you have streamlined and make simple meals with inexpensive foods into meals for your family. It would be very interesting to hear what you buy and make, how you meal plan, etc.
Hello lovely Marissa ! HAPPY NEW YEAR ! I am recovering from Covid, it was not dire but long ! Now I am fine ! So happy you hit 100K ! You deserve it and sooner you'll be among the top 10 minimalism influencers ! Well done ! Bonne continuation et gros bisous!😁🤗😘🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️
This is such a great idea. I always do a digital vision board, but I may do a phyiscal one this year. I also love how some of the visions manifested in different ways than you might have thought!
@@leoren2685 I am planning a blog post in the future for sure! 👍 I would personally keep it as either your computer or phone wallpaper. That way every time you log in you see it!
@@AtoZenLife Many thanks for the reply and looking forward to your blog post on that! I am on the computer so much it rarely goes to screen-saver mode ... hmmm. I don't have a lot of room in my tiny office, but maybe there's a way to make a mini one for the wall. I love your grid with the clips.
Decluttered my daughter's room while watching this video and a few others today! SO EXCITED to see progress in my first room, lotta work but feels really good 👍
I love the look of the ruggables especially the one you picked, but I feel obligated to say that I have no been thrilled with mine. I bought one, it won't stay flat the edges always curl up,(no matter what tapes I try to stick it down) and they are very thin. They don't feel comfy and cushy. I ended up getting FLOR rug tiles and have been thrilled. I now have one in our hallway and one in our office , and our front door mats) Just my two cents, but as I don't like throwing things out or wasting them. It was very important to me to share this. I love your video, and can't wait to try my own vision board for this year.
Thanks for your honesty! My friend got 3 and loves them, but maybe she hasn’t had them long enough to experience the rug curling. 🤔 It’s good to know details like this! Good luck with your vision board. ✨
I love goods I totally feel like I would love a goat on a vision board!!!! We actually stayed at an Airbnb last year that had goats and it was wonderful. Now did you use pictures for your vision board to represent exact things or was it more like a feeling or a direction you wanted to go in so it was more open-ended?
I’ve been anticipating this video since your last one!! I love how intentional you are and incorporate the whole picture of your past as part of your future. I love the quotes on comparison and rest. Do you do vision boards with your kids and husband? I have 5 kids and I showed them your video-but I’m not sure if they understand the concept-my youngest ones are 9,7, 4, & 2- (some of their goals included potty training and no pull-ups at night-but hey-maybe it will work for them too!)
We do talk about goals, but haven’t made a vision board but that is a cute idea. Gege has goals like “inventing real Pokémon” so…let’s see. 😆 I love your family goals!
Hey Mantis! I always have it on but it’s glitchy. 😕 I tried to work with UA-cam about it, but they couldn’t figure out what was wrong because it only happens on certain videos - I’ve noticed on other channels as well, so I know it’s not just me. Apologies if it’s not working at the moment, but I want you to know I always try to have the subtitles on because we’ve got watchers from all over the world! 🌍
Hi, Marissa, what a great video!! I honestly don't hear any echoes, your videos are just fine the way they are. Congratulations on the 100 k subscribers and on achieving your goals. "Your soul knows the way", wow! So powerful 💗💗
Cinque Terre - phonetically cheen-kway ter-ray. Means Five Lands. It's a collection of five beautiful villages along the Ligurian Sea in northwestern Italy. You can hike between the villages and the views are spectacular. Well worth a visit!
I totally was waiting to see this video. I loved it last year and want to do one this week since now I am inspired to complete my goal. I am staring with small goal like reading weekly, drinking water , and saving money for our future home. I hope that I can see this and inspired to to reach them. Thank you for all of your hard word.
Don't feel bad about living in Europe for so long without seeing Cinque Terre... I've lived about an hour or so from that area and have yet to go. "the global event that shall not be named" isn't helping my travel goals, but there's really no good excuse, lol. Gotta get my act together 🤣
I really wanted to make some goals and stick to them for the new year, but since I went back to work a few months ago I really don't have the energy ☹️ I can't even eat the way I like. It's almost as stressful, as sitting at home and wandering what to do with my time, while my son is at the kindy 😒 why it's allways so hard
Marissa, Du sprichst schon sehr gut deutsch! 👍 sei stolz auf dich! Vielen herzlichen Dank für deine ehrlichen, authentischen, inspiriernden und motivierenden Videos!
If you want to read and fully indulge yourself in 'Ikigai', then I highly recommend reading the two books written by Héctor Garcia and Francesc Miralles. Perhaps you would also like their books on the concepts of 'WabiSabi' and 'Shinrin-yoku' as well. :) Cleansing of the soul in book format.
I'm so happy yo see ypu again. The echo doesn't bother me. Love your vision board. All but a couple of mine were finished last year so they are added again. Even some.that were finished I added back to do again added new ones.
Hi Marissa, I love your videos 🥰 they are so inspiring and honest. This year I am starting my new life after being very sick in 2021. Right now I am decluttering our home. Thanks for sharing your experience with it. It means so much to me. Actually, I live in Germany, too, not so far away from Berlin. Many many greetings, I'll follow your youtube canal. Our neighbours used to have the echos in their home, too. They are allergic to dust and cannot have carpets. So they decided to put some hole panels to the walls and they covered them with decorative fabric. It looks like two big pictures and the echos are gone. And.... since I was sick, I started to juice, exactly as your husband does. Our juicer though looks very similar to yours. :-) I juice vegetables, most of the time... I love carrots, beets, celery, spinach and fennel... I bought "How not to die" from Michael Greger and find it very helpful. Your soul knows the way... this is how I feel... but I find it hard to bring it into my life. Did you ever try Yoga? You will love it. Especially as a minimalist. You don't need a whole fitness studio. You only need your mat and you can practice any time, anywhere. You are not only challenging your body with it but also stabilize your mind. My yogapractice brought me through the last year. Many greetings from Antje
It was a kids calendar of animals, but they probably chose the goat because of the Capricorn factor! I also happen to be a Capricorn ♑️😂 so maybe that’s why I liked him!
I love your vision board. I've known about them for years but never really put one together with intention. This year it makes a lot of sense because I have a lot of goals and keep getting mixed up about what's the most important thing to tackle. This will help with clarity and focus. Many times I've made a collage which helped in a similar way so I'm thrilled about creating a vision board for 2022. Thanks for this video. Congratulations on 100K subscribers. 🎉 I love your content!
How often do you go to the gym? And what do the kids do then -- is that when they are in school? I have a 3 yo and never got back into fitness as I haven't figured out how to manage my time.
Twice a week and yes, when the kids are in school. When I had one I did 30 minutes videos during naps. After two it was harder for me to get a workout in. ☺️

I actually also decided today to put the quote " What you seek is seeking you" on my Vision Board. 🥰
Thank you so much x this video,very moving ...particularly the bit about your Mum' s card.
Wish you the best and send you lot of positive vibes.

Good luck with your vision board, I hope everything you manifest comes true for 2022, you deserve it! 💗
Ive used a vision board the last several years and was amazed at what happened. Haven’t made one yet this year and after this will get in it today!

I have 5 kids and I showed them your video-but I’m not sure if they understand the concept-my youngest ones are 9,7, 4, & 2- (some of their goals included potty training and no pull-ups at night-but hey-maybe it will work for them too!)
We do talk about goals, but haven’t made a vision board but that is a cute idea. Gege has goals like “inventing real Pokémon” so…let’s see. 😆 I love your family goals!
Good luck for year 2022! I love to watch your videos. Now I feel that I must do my own vision board and see if it helps to achieve my goals.
I’ll be cheering you on 📣
Thanks for explaining how to do a vision board. You made it understandable, never quite understood until now. I am inspired to do one!
Cheering 📣 you on to make those dreams come true!
Thank you for this video! I really needed this.
Thanks so much for watching. 🤗
Can we say cutest vision board ever?
Aw, thanks buddy. 😚
Cute video! Thanks for the inspiration. I've never done a vision board.
Loved the "Connection over Comparision"
Very meaningful!
Were did you get york
Please turn on automatic subtitle translation! This will help those who have poor English. Thank you! 🙏
Hey Mantis! I always have it on but it’s glitchy. 😕 I tried to work with UA-cam about it, but they couldn’t figure out what was wrong because it only happens on certain videos - I’ve noticed on other channels as well, so I know it’s not just me. Apologies if it’s not working at the moment, but I want you to know I always try to have the subtitles on because we’ve got watchers from all over the world! 🌍
Hi, Marissa, what a great video!! I honestly don't hear any echoes, your videos are just fine the way they are. Congratulations on the 100 k subscribers and on achieving your goals. "Your soul knows the way", wow! So powerful 💗💗
Thanks so much for watching, Marcela - yes, that quote is amazing! ✨
Cinque Terre - phonetically cheen-kway ter-ray. Means Five Lands. It's a collection of five beautiful villages along the Ligurian Sea in northwestern Italy. You can hike between the villages and the views are spectacular. Well worth a visit!
I totally was waiting to see this video. I loved it last year and want to do one this week since now I am inspired to complete my goal. I am staring with small goal like reading weekly, drinking water , and saving money for our future home. I hope that I can see this and inspired to to reach them. Thank you for all of your hard word.
Don't feel bad about living in Europe for so long without seeing Cinque Terre... I've lived about an hour or so from that area and have yet to go. "the global event that shall not be named" isn't helping my travel goals, but there's really no good excuse, lol. Gotta get my act together 🤣
12 years. That's how long I've been here in Livorno without seeing Cinque Terre. Shameful.
ua-cam.com/video/FmL5pRd1dpY/v-deo.html a better pronunciation... Writing it out in phonics is complicated 😉
Thanks for all the help! 👍
I really wanted to make some goals and stick to them for the new year, but since I went back to work a few months ago I really don't have the energy ☹️ I can't even eat the way I like. It's almost as stressful, as sitting at home and wandering what to do with my time, while my son is at the kindy 😒 why it's allways so hard
I’m sorry you’re having a tough time! Maybe set ONE GOAL that would make a difference, something small…then build up from there?
Yes your german is very good👍
I do so love your new hair!
Marissa, Du sprichst schon sehr gut deutsch! 👍 sei stolz auf dich! Vielen herzlichen Dank für deine ehrlichen, authentischen, inspiriernden und motivierenden Videos!
I am not liking how people are giving you so much hate about getting a rug. Guys it is not that bad.
If you want to read and fully indulge yourself in 'Ikigai', then I highly recommend reading the two books written by Héctor Garcia and Francesc Miralles. Perhaps you would also like their books on the concepts of 'WabiSabi' and 'Shinrin-yoku' as well. :) Cleansing of the soul in book format.
I'm so happy yo see ypu again. The echo doesn't bother me. Love your vision board. All but a couple of mine were finished last year so they are added again. Even some.that were finished I added back to do again added new ones.
Wonderful, good luck on your goals and thanks for sharing. 🤗✨
Happy New Year and so glad you’re back! Been sharing your channel to family! All the best in 2022🎉🎉🎉 🐅 🐅
Always helps me out a ton, thanks Judy 🐯
Where fo you find your prints for your vision board?
great video. Very positive. You have a beautiful soul.
Hi Marissa,
I love your videos 🥰 they are so inspiring and honest.
This year I am starting my new life after being very sick in 2021.
Right now I am decluttering our home. Thanks for sharing your experience with it. It means so much to me.
Actually, I live in Germany, too, not so far away from Berlin.
Many many greetings, I'll follow your youtube canal.
Our neighbours used to have the echos in their home, too. They are allergic to dust and cannot have carpets. So they decided to put some hole panels to the walls and they covered them with decorative fabric. It looks like two big pictures and the echos are gone.
And.... since I was sick, I started to juice, exactly as your husband does. Our juicer though looks very similar to yours. :-) I juice vegetables, most of the time... I love carrots, beets, celery, spinach and fennel...
I bought "How not to die" from Michael Greger and find it very helpful.
Your soul knows the way... this is how I feel... but I find it hard to bring it into my life. Did you ever try Yoga? You will love it. Especially as a minimalist. You don't need a whole fitness studio. You only need your mat and you can practice any time, anywhere. You are not only challenging your body with it but also stabilize your mind. My yogapractice brought me through the last year.
Many greetings from Antje
I’ve never used a vision board but it seems so cool!
I find it very cool and fun 😎
Mushrooms are said to bring luck! And i think it is a capricorn not a goat. Capricorn stands for intelligence and success...💗
It was a kids calendar of animals, but they probably chose the goat because of the Capricorn factor! I also happen to be a Capricorn ♑️😂 so maybe that’s why I liked him!
Thanks for sharing. My vision board incldes Me with lots of white space/margin around me.
What a nice image. ✨ Good luck!

Awesome goals, it was worth the wait 😁
I’m planning to make a vision board as well, since I’m a super visual person as well. 👍
Have fun and good luck with your goals. ✨
You just inspired me to make my first vision board! Will make a physical one on A3 paper 🥺❤
Most excellent content. Thank you.
I love your vision board. I've known about them for years but never really put one together with intention. This year it makes a lot of sense because I have a lot of goals and keep getting mixed up about what's the most important thing to tackle. This will help with clarity and focus. Many times I've made a collage which helped in a similar way so I'm thrilled about creating a vision board for 2022. Thanks for this video. Congratulations on 100K subscribers. 🎉 I love your content!
How often do you go to the gym? And what do the kids do then -- is that when they are in school? I have a 3 yo and never got back into fitness as I haven't figured out how to manage my time.
Twice a week and yes, when the kids are in school. When I had one I did 30 minutes videos during naps. After two it was harder for me to get a workout in. ☺️
