[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometime last year I started a mission to methodically declutter our entire house. I wouldn’t say we are going full minimalist, but definitely minimal-ish. Once you get going on decluttering, it’s pretty rewarding to see the results in certain area and it’s very motivating to not want to buy more things. I also follow a lot of people on YouTube who support this and believe similarly and it’s very motivating. I think I’m about halfway done decluttering and aim to finish by the end of summer. It has been proven study after study that more stuff does NOT make people happy, beyond their actual needs.

I am not opposed to having nice things or replacing things that get worn out/used up. But I don’t need 20 sweaters. I’m down to my 10 favorites and even that I should cull further. And I don’t need to buy more. Just for example. [/quote]

I will chime in that I am under-taking a big house organization project and it does help me buy less.  Now I know where everything is and how much of it I have, and I know when I need to re-order.  Whereas before I was such a slob, I just wouldn't be able to find things so I would have to order more.  That said - everyone else is probably less slobby than I was so you might not see such big improvements :)[/quote]
