We're up to day five of the Simplify Challenge! We've done...



If you've been keeping up - you're amazing. If you haven't kept up / had time / felt overwhelmed - that's completely fine - you're also amazing.


These videos are going to stay up, so you can choose to do this challenge any time during December, into January, or whenever you feel drawn to do the challenge.


To help you as you declutter your way to clarity, here's a helpful list of guiding questions:


For the more fun areas of life (clothing, decor, books, hobbies, etc):


  • Does this spark joy?
  • If I saw someone wearing / displaying this would I ask them where they bought it from?
  • If I didn't own this and saw it in a store, would I buy this?
  • Does this item make me feel (confident, happy, inspired, etc)?
  • Does this fit with the vibe (e.g. minimal, classic, put together) that I want to give off?
  • Does this belong in my dream space?
  • Do I enjoy using this item?
  • Does this give me the ick?


For the more practical areas of life (kitchen items, food, products, etc):


  • If I didn't own this, would my day to day be negatively impacted?
  • Would I be regularly inconvenienced if I didn't own this?
  • If I lost this item, would I go to the effort of repurchasing it?
  • Have I worn / used it in the past year?
  • Does this go with anything else that I own?
  • Would I recommend this product to a friend?
  • Is it damaged and will I realistically put in the time / effort to get it fixed?
  • Is it expired?
  • Have I used this in the last three months?
  • Does this address the problem that I bought it to fix?
  • Do I use this often enough to justify keeping it?
  • Is this functional AND beautiful?


Sending you all of the good thoughts,


Michelle
