    I cut back on social media back in 2018 and haven't gone back. The only social media format I have stayed with is UA-cam, I'm only subscribed to channels that teach and inspire. That's why I watch this channel. You're never too old or too young to learn new things from others. I have also recently joined the Life Reset Challenge because even though I have cut out Social media considerably, I still struggle with finding time to reach and complete my goals. Thank you Gabe for this opportunity to learn how to reset. 🙌😀

    This isn't new to me, but watching your videos (and rewatching) gets me back on track. And your rules aren't crazy strict, which makes doing things much more realistic and manageable.

    Experience: We did that with our sons for Christmas once we landed in their late middle school/into high school ages. We traveled at Christmas time. They are now in their 20s, and we have great discussions about those trips, but I sincerely doubt we'd have happy, laugh filled talks about whatever toys or...stuff...we would have given them instead.

    The great reset - no spend month edition got us our house deposit in 3yrs. We bought our house in 2022 ❤ were also practice upgradelessness, quality purchasing and experiences over stuff.
    One i would add (unless i missed it, its a lot of content) is a goals check in with yourself and your other half! Really dig into it not just a single sentence so you know you (and they!) are working towards the same thing itll help you move there with less resistance.

    If you don’t want to wear all black, on Sunday just have your clothes laid out for the week. I usually have my clothes on hangers in order in the closet, underwear socks laid out and pants. Same for the kids. I’m an ocd dad

    Friend sent me here . I struggle with anxiety which has become more of easily irritated. Plus I need to stop blowing money. I have already started in the areas of my house where I'm in alot. I have lots of rooms to pile stuff into that I need to work on. But just getting rid of cluttered decorations and spaces has made me feel so much better. I actually watched another video and she said don't decorate just to have decorations. Make it work and make sense. I think when you see too much or when I do it stresses me out . Now I'm gonna binge these videos

    I love your videos. I recently watched something on Swedish Death Cleaning. The concept that if you were going to die tomorrow, would you want your family to have to sort through it all. If you don't want them to have to deal with it then get rid of it. It has really helped me a lot!

    15:21 so far is my favorite time stamp of this video, the older I get the more I realize it’s good to not be doing what everyone else is doing. I used to do things just because everyone around me is doing them or I become envious of them, but I’ve learned for most things ,the majority is wrong and I didn’t really miss out on anything. It’s ironic that most of the people I was envious of are now envious of me lol. 👍🏻

    the "one thing" rule reminds me of something in the fitness world called "periodization." Periodization is, as the name suggests, having periods of time where you are more focused on doing different things. You don't get your optimal gains by having a constantly evenly distributed focus on every single one of your fitness goals, it's actually more helpful to focus on the growth of one aspect of your fitness, then on another, then on another. There is a certain really high stimulus that is required to make really good gains in one thing, but it doesn't take a whole lot of stimulus to just maintain it. If you try to maximally stimulate everything at the same time, you'll probably either burn out (mentally or physically), or you'll just not actually have the ability to provide enough stimulus. Instead, keep maintenance on everything except for a couple things that you really want to improve at the moment, and cycle which things you are actively improving.
    It's not a requirement for making progression, but it has been shown to be more optimal. And if you generalize the reasons that it works, it makes sense that it would work pretty well for other goals unrelated to fitness.

    Nightly Reset - this reminds of the quote by Admiral McRaven "Make your bed". It refers to a mental health tactic to stay above water by doing the simple things so that they dont compound into bigger issues. do you have a couple dishes, do them real quick so that it doesnt become a sink full. Do you have a messy bed , make it when you wake up so you at least have a comfy bed to come to at the end of the long day.

    Become unavailable is something that changes so much. It took some time for my people to accept it but after a couple of weeks it was normal that I respond in a few hours/days and no friendship or family relationship is damaged. You don't have to be available 24/7 and the right people in your life will respect it

    The 80% get rid of thing is problematic. Of that 80%, some is likely going to be part of your 20% in the future. It’s wasteful to get rid of perfectly good clothing. Fine if you are rich , but for many, they would be throwing away good clothing that they may be very thankful for in the future. The money might not be there to replace it.

    • @BonikaShears

      I rotate in my closet. If I skip some clothing over and over, it goes to a back closet. After staying in that back closet for a year, I donate it. Exception are formal, wedding or funeral clothes which stay til they no longer fit or are hopelessly out of style.

    Yes your right to follow your own ways diet ,exercise etc etc not the status quo
    Do you not think though that if something hasn't a use in the present moment and storing it in the home is still clutter

    The nightly reset is called "putting the house to bed" in our home! We can't go to bed until the house has been put to bed, makes it part of a normal bedtime routine instead of it feeling like a burden keeping us from our bedtime routine.

    recently I have lost my motto or passion about my work I really need to find that joy again before the crunch time at the office begins, do you have advice or videos about this? how to find the love and energy to do what you chose as your profesional career. I made a YT last year to see if I need a change and I made it the channel was monetized but is not stable because my 12 hour work day, I feel like a con artist sitting at the office stealing money but the company is remote but I have to be here because Im the supervisor of the team and I have a great delegate system but must of the time I just dissociated alone in my chair

    Some of these advices are great, and while I agree on not needing so much stuff, I hate the videos when they say “we invest in freedom and traveling and not crap”. Just because that is for you, it doesn’t mean the other thing is bad not that you can’t have both. That “what you do” sentiment feels very entitled. There are people that hate traveling or social gathering. There are people that can afford both, their hobbies and traveling. And there are people that like their collecting hobbies. You should stop to dismiss those other lifestyles at the “bad option”.

    You are not even a minimalist mate!
    If you have 80% of the wardrobe not being used, that means you have it in the first place! I wear the same clothes almost all the time, I don't have 80% not being used. Sure, some clothes I don't wear often, but that is just the backup in case the one I wear is dirty or gets damaged.
    Most of the stuff you describe has nothing to do with minimalism. In fact a minimalist person, a real one, would tell you 2 or 3 rules! Yeah, minimalism is minimal, 50 rules is not minimalism!!
