Easy Things You Can Do To Declutter And Live Minimally

Simply + Fiercely

I need to be honest with you—I’ve got a toddler and newborn at home, so my brain has felt pretty fuzzy lately. I don’t have the mental capacity for too many big projects.

Instead, I’m all about breaking tasks into bite-sized pieces. What are small, manageable things that I can do to work towards my goals?

If you can relate, then this list is for you. Here are easy things you can do to declutter your home and simplify your life, without adding any additional stress or overwhelm.

I know that decluttering can feel overwhelming, but there’s one super simple way to get started—by choosing one less.

DECLUTTER BY CHOOSING “ONE LESS”

PRACTICE DOING NOTHING

Have you ever noticed that you can feel perfectly content with what you have—and then you go window shopping? If so, the solution is simple: stop browsing.

Want to declutter your mind? Try keeping a shorter to-do list. I like to limit my list to a maximum of five tasks.
