Are You A Minimalist?

Hola!!! cΓ³mo estΓ‘s? How are you? Hope you are all in good health, insya Allah πŸ₯°

Today, I wanna share with you, the changes on myself after being a minimalist since 2018, so here we go…

1. Starts love being at home more than outside – busy cooking, clothes laundering, room cleaning, organizing clothes etc

It started from the pandemic, when everyone been lockdown and be at home 24/7. I spend most of my time, cooking a nutritious food, spending time doing my laundry and folding my clothes right after dried, then straight keep it in my wardrobe. I also, found myself at home, busy wiping dust in my room, sweeping the floor and also maintaining my bedsheets, pillow etc. I’d found myself, always decluttering my wardrobe, until I have few empty hanger. Im really excited achieving this and I feel happy and self-content on this changes on me, for over 4 years being a Minimalist ❀πŸ₯°β€

Making a simple and nutritious big breakfast. I eat the fruit first, before others. So, stomach will full of fiber first as it’s good for digestion system.
I became addicted to Cleaning and Organizing stuffs πŸ˜ƒ

2. Earning some extra cash money – selling unused items to buy gold

Okay, another thing I sort of knowing Im align with Minimalist is that, I earn some cash money from decluttering my unused items!! πŸ˜ƒ

Yes! You hear it right! Those unused items, I took pictures and sell in online. Hahaha!! Sound funny, but hey!! I got 1 gold ring with the accumulated money I sold!! So, those unused items, you may donate if you want, or just resell it!! Sell it with cheap price, coz in the end, you won’t use it too, and its kinda some sort of charity coz you sell it cheap. But, in return, I got 1 ring gold!!! Hahaha! I’m proud of it, Alhamdulillah πŸ₯°

Some Betta Fish set that I no longer use. Total cost spend about RM 100++, but I sell it for RM 35, the guy asked for RM 30, I just accepted it. So, it’s somehow doing charity + get some money too πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

3. Having more extra time, as reducing time in maintaining daily routine – laundry, wiping/cleaning room

Okay next thing is, I’m having more extra time for myself as my things had reduced for clean up. My weekly dirty clothes reducing too, as before being a Minimalist my weekly dirty clothes usually pile up full or more than 1 big basket. But now, I have not reach 1 normal basket for 1 week clothes. Then, washing and drying clothes time reduced as well because I don’t have much clothes to wash. Extra those time I have, I will spend by folding the dried clothes and put it into my wardrobe nicely. It looks nice in the wardrobe too, as less clothes need to be displayed and can put it into a proper hanger.

Im happy to see more hangers than clothes in my wardrobe πŸ₯°

It was easy to maintain my room now, as more of stuffs are gone and only left empty floors. I love it so much, as it was easy for me to sweep and wipe my floor. Haha!! I did wipe my floors by hand, and Im not using mop πŸ˜ƒ

I have more time to spend vacuuming my bed. Yes! I vacuum my mattress, quilt and pillow. Haha!! Surprisingly, there are some dust too, eventhough its under the bedsheet, and pillowsheet. So, it is recommended to either vacuum, or hang those under the sunlight πŸ₯°

Vacuuming the mattress, quilt and pillow biweekly basis πŸ˜€

4. Having more space and my room looks cleaner most of time – in wardrobe and room

Yes, absolutely. When I let go most of my things, absolutely I will have more spaces. I love and admiring empty spaces more than spaces with lot of unwanted stuffs. I had once, stayed alone in my previous home, and when my parents came over, my mom always complaining that why my home is “Too Empty”? Hahaha. I enjoy less stuff most of the time coz it is easy for maintaining and cleaning job πŸ˜ƒπŸ₯°

A clean floor, if I have my own new house I will have a robot to keep it clean most of times. Little helper required 😍

5. I’m now addicted to Organizer – Organizer is More than my Stuff

I’m now addicted to Organizing Videos, Organizing trick and tips and busy organizing everything including my medicine, car, clothes and stocks.

Yes, this is absolutely time reducing to find things in my room. I don’t frequently changing my organization location, and I love to maintain my organization time by time. Meaning to say, I love maintaining my organizing stuff, especially my stocks such as Shampoo, Body Gel, Toothbrush, Toothpaste etc.

My beauty and cleaning stocks, I organized it into 2 boxes, and kept it in my wardrobe, on top shelf πŸ˜ƒ
Inside the wardrobe and on top of the shelf πŸ₯°
Another example, is my First Aid. I keep all medicine in this kit, so I no longer need to find plaster under drawer, oitment in wardrobe etc. Everything will be in this First Aid box. πŸ₯°

Okay, I think thats all for now. To be Continue..
