What rules have you used in your own life?
Don't listen to people trying to stop you. Do not let yourself be disturbed. Just go your own way, at your own pace.
What is real help? Be careful when you help others, most of the time "help" can get in the way of people's progress toward growlng( oops Gabe's misspelling impacting me)
@@Parkitloveit YESS i feel you on that, especially with social media taking a toll. I start to compare my growth with others but have to remember that everyone starts somewhere & I’m ok with where i’m at.
Gabe, regarding Cut shirts, you mentioned that you have a long torso. I don't have a long torso per se, just a normal torso, are there Cut shirts that will fit me?
My newest one, do that one thing you’ve always wanted to do that makes your heart happy if it makes you better. Even if no one does it with you. Also, if some peeps don’t like you, that’s okay, you’re entitled to not like other people too. That’s life. 💛
Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future even till now my wife and I earn passively with our asset coach. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!!
"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication."
~ Leonardo Da Vinci
My friend (a pilot) always says "If there's doubt, there's no doubt" - really simplifies my whole life
This is so good
Wow, so good
Nice! Trust your instincts
he stole my very phrase!
Bloody music s annoying the hell out of me.
I’ve tie dyed all my white clothes because of stains, or possibility of stains. I enjoy wearing them much more now.
I edit my relationships, I match the energy put forth where as before I would do all the work.
If you do that, then all you're doing is lowering yourself down to the other person's standard 🤔
@@blondego56you can take this either way. The way I meant it is why let others take the easy road as you do all the work?
If it's healthy enjoy blessing others, many times we need to step away and respect someone's freewill and honor their wishes.
Don’t be a virtue signaler.
@@blondego56 the way I understand it is to give relative to what you get, not necessarily abuse, neglect or mistreat. It's more like if you communicate with me I will also
I am ending a 6 year marriage right now because the energy I put forth and didn’t receive in turn has left me feeling energetically bankrupt. I felt better immediately after making the decision. Lighter, more peaceful and hopeful.
"If it's not 100% heck yes, then it's a no" IS A GAMECHANGER. I hear a lot of people saying to ask if it sparks joy but some of us need a push that's a little less kind lol
yes!! I recently learned and adopted this mantra from another CZcamsr!! Now I find myself saying it to friends as we're shopping together, or decluttering things. Absolute game changer, for sure!
@@katiegleaves3792 What if you still dont get it? I cant get over the "if I want to wear/use it once ever I can't part with it" trauma? I find whenever I get rid of something I havent used in years, I immediately find a use for it when it's gone.
@@gettingintrospective I can absolutely relate, and still struggle with it. I'd recommend using this approach a little bit differently, especially at first: rather than trying to minimize your whole wardrobe and getting overwhelmed, do one "first round" this way. And to help with the questionable items you don't use often but aren't ready to part with, apply the "time out / time will tell" bin method. This allows us to get those items out of the way in our main wardrobe, but gives us a chance to see if we actually need/miss those items we had set aside.
* Another way to start practicing the 'if it isn't a YES, it's a NO' method (and has been very helpful for my friends and myself) is when considering whether or not to buy an item in the first place.
as someone who is basically an "impulsive retail-therapy shopper in recovery", this push is vital if I hope to have money beyond next year. I never learned how to manage it very well or prepare for the future, so I'm doing all I can to simplify and stick to it. I have a ton of stuff already--I need to use what I have or give it away, NOT add to it!
There's more to minimalism than just unload baggage. Essentialism and simplicity are the mindful side of minimalism. If there's not focus on what's vital then it's hard to be content with just minimizing. A friend once said if the end result is the same do it easiest way possible.
I agree with this! Sometimes minimalism is sugar coated, but not really implemented. Kudos to those who practices it best 👌🏻
Even at 67 this makes lots of sense to me. I’ve mostly lived my life this way. Now passing you on to loved ones! Thank you for your energy & clarity! Best to you & your family. Enjoy!
Still have a lot to accomplish and do at that age! Like you, I've learned a lot watching these type of videos, especially those that tackles financial discussions.
Love how minimalism is so connected to essentilsm. More broad topics like this. Please. 💖💙
Gabe, you have become my favorite youtube channel as of late. I needed help simplifying my life and I find a ton of encouragement and help watching your content. Thank you for putting this out into the world, it is really needed. Also congrats on the kiddo, I have three, and I am a single father so your insights have helped me a ton trying to manage a household. And awesome that you are a man of faith, I will keep watching and keep learning, thank you brother.
I do not want to be negative, but being a single parent in western society is more common than you think because the divorce law is not complex. Therefore, people having commitment issues is a norm right now. I am terribly sorry for the kiddos going through it. 😈
Congratulations on the baby for you and your wife.
@@cheekymonkeygirl3378 people don't even have to be committed to the way they are made- *cancelled*
Love what you said at the end about folding laundry. I've made it a habit for many years to bring my ironing board into the loungeroom and iron and fold laundry in front of the tv. It's been so nice. I actually enjoy doing the laundry now. Guilt free Down time watching CZcams and very productive. Win win.
Great video as always Gabe.
Thank you for my weekly pep talk! Your points really make me think. With the inspiration and push I need! Keep them coming!
I so needed to hear this today. Thank you for doing what you’re doing - you’re making a difference!
I have not read that book yet but it’s on my list! I can totally see the quality of your videos shoot up but I have to say, I knew the content of quality was always there (what you were saying). Go Gabe! I think what had me was not many people that come from humble beginnings, are business minded, have spouses that are completely on board - because hello, y’all are both on the same team, that’s essential right there and then minimalism! Boom! Y’all are rocking! Go Team Bult!
It's definitely a good read!
Yeah it really made a big difference the more I cut out the better the things I do get.
Yeah it's definitely super important to have your partner on board and discussing why it's so important. Thanks so much!
"What would this look like if this were easy?"
Brilliant. Thanks.
I really enjoyed the example of reading 10 books vs 1 and really thinking about it and applying it. I love that and I will def take that into my life. Thanks man!
Love your videos. I’m a new mum and still learning how to survive this new life and about to go back to work which is getting more busy. These tips will save my life 😊
Just started essentialism yesterday, was debating between essentialism and effortless, and I ran into this video! Love the book so far.
I stole some points from both books lol
I found you this morning and am now looking at all I can find. You are real, BIG THANKS.
I'm in complete awe of this. I read a book with a similar message, and it was astonishing. "The Joy of Less: A Minimalist Living Guide" by Matthew Cove
These days when I ask how long to people who say that they’ve had something for ages, it turns out ages for them means two years (like Gabe says). I’ve had the same clothes for 20/30 years (some bought second hand). Both quality and quantity matter!
Great video, thanks for sharing. Yesterday is history, tomorrow's a mystery, all we have is the present and that's why it's a gift.
Yes. Challenging our beliefs by exploring curiosity is a way forward.
I really find your channel enjoyable and I have learned so much from your videos. I only subscribe to about four channels on CZcams for minimalism and frugal living, and I have been very happy to share your name with a lot of my friends. I look forward to each one of your new videos. Congratulations on your upcoming addition to your family and I wish you health and happiness.
Greg McKeown's book "Essentialism" I enjoyed and was recommended from here I believe, his newest book " Effortless" is my next buy and was recommended with Greg"s interview with Matt D'avella.
I have two friends with full basements loaded with junk. I suggested one get rid of five rusty or moldy items each day. The other has decided to sell her
house and I am bringing boxes to fill with paperback romances for our local library. A quilting group is coming for her fabric. She has lots of tools and
closet and storage items, too. I am the only minimalist among my friends, I'm 72. Tina, Al's wife
Quality over quantity first and foremost.
Switch 80:20 with 90:10 until equilibrium is reached.
Resonance is relevant cost is not.
Ask your soul not an external source what is right for you.
Less is not the goal. More is. Focus on what you want more of.
Your avatar is so cute!
Thank you for all this insightful message. The inversion principle is so true. I am currently going through atomic habits too and it is such a great resource.
Gabe, I’m going through a toxic breakup with a friend/mentor right now. I guess it’s time to “edit” my life. If he had been acting like this 5 years ago, I would have said no today to a friendship with him.
I PAID 1-800-GOT JUNK to emptied out my 880sq ft apartment, and I moved to Queretaro,Mexico on 11-2-2021. USA became too deadly and expensive for this 79 years young lady. I have a 100% furnished apartment, that includes ALL utilities and maid service in a gated community. The people have been super nice, and they are respectful, as I am also. I did not have Junk, but controlled memories all in Rubber Maids. I have index cards and I know everything, that was removed, and I miss nothing. The index cards had the location, RM#, and contents within Ziplock bags. I do speak Spanish as a second language, and have lived and visited Mexico for almost 60 years, as well as all 50 states, and all over the world on my own dime from WORKING. I am a giver to non beggars to help themselves, and not a greedy takr, as most people are today. I was raised better.
Put a d before anger, and you get danger. Karma never loses an address. I love your videos.
This was my easy Swedish Death Cleansing. lol
You're amazing! I really admire your bravery to actually do it. It really helps that you've lived all over and speak Spanish. I love your heart too. I generally give info to those who beg. Feed a man a fish or teach him to fish. I too, detest "greedy takers." I often wish I was rich so I could give all my money away to help those in need.
Seeing as how “expatriates” are moving to Mexico and out pricing the locals, at the very least you have the decency to speak the language. Many people moving there (or to any other country really) expect the locals to cater to them and don’t have the common courtesy to learn the language.
Love this book. I stopped going to meetings at work. It didn't make me popular with the admin... but it certainly improved my life!
The majority of meetings are management announcing something to workers. The management just doesn't get that the meetings could be emails, far cheaper.
Your channel has bee so helpful to me and very motivating in my minimalist journey. Thank you and please keep posting!!
Also, that’s so cool that you fly! Aviation has always fascinated me. I’m freshly licensed in skydiving, and I feel so accomplished
I also don't love anything to do with numbers. Love this video. Thanks Gabe, you are an inspiration as always.
LOVE your book collection!! 🥰
Wanted some motivation watched your video.Pepped-up now!Great going Gabe👍Keep motivating us with your ideas and videos.Thank you🙏
Love that you mentioned The Office! That is my treat and incentive to do any task.
Hi Gabe! Just discovered your channel a few days ago. Thanks for making these videos. I appreciate making it relatable for another self proclaimed lazy procrastinator. So much good advice! Cherry on the top? Mentioning The Office. I knew you were a kindred spirit! 😊
Wow! These concepts are the very things we try to teach children. I work at a place where I see parents struggling to raise their kids and kids that seem to not have been taught these basic coping and reasoning skills that adults can use to create a healthy lifestyle. Great video!
🙏🙏☕
I always stop everything I’m doing at the moment to watch your new videos 😂 thank you Gabe for being here!🙏
Thank you🙏🙏 appreciate it!
Those trousers! Love em
I ordered the book. Thanks, Gabe.
There are always new things to learn. I like the aspect of purpose on the things we use. Some things might just serve the purpose to beautify, and that is pretty alright with me.
You mentioned great ideas. I really needed to hear them. Thank you for the video! Keep up the good work.
🙏
I'm loving your videos. Great library. 🙂
To get stains out try the spray dawn dish soap the platinum power wash one. Rub it with a toothbrush and then put hydrogen peroxide and rub some more. The only thing I haven’t been able to get out all the way is mold stains, but even then it did get quite a bit of it.
I have cut spending an exorbitant amounts of money for clothing simply for the name on the tag...
There's simply too many people in America doing without basic necessities, for me to rationalize spending $50 - $100 on a shirt...
Quit coffee. I am thirsty in the morning and drink hot water. Huge time saver. It was just the milk and sugar I liked after all. The yoga isn’t a heck yes but I do it anyway because the results are so good.
I got the book but have not read it yet. Thanks for the encouragement! Great content from you as always!
It's a great 📚
Gabe, your message and your videos are simply EPIC! Really needed to hear this today. Thank you for choosing to be here on youtube and sharing your thoughts, as well as helping other people!
❤ Fawn
I'm glad it can help! It's super fun to be able to share what I'm going through with like-minded people thanks for watching Fawn!!
@@GabeBult Agreed! Some of these things I have been doing since before watching your channel, but seeing and hearing new perspectives to consider is absolutely wonderful!
"Slow down and stop being lazy". It's a good thing I wasn't holding coffee when you said it, because I would've dropped it. It stopped me in my tracks.
Amen on the sustainable life!!!
Thanks Gabe, you’ve help me so much though these videos 🙏🏾😎
I love that you're reading "Steal Like an Artist". I follow Austin's blog and he's amazing
youre ryt, focusing on the now reduces anxiety and guilt
Perfect Monday Moroni needed thank you again for nailing it 🤘 and congrats on your growing family
Thank you!!
You turned on my happy playlist! 😁🤣 Thanks. Got me motivated. 👍
Lol my bad
In skydiving, there’s the 10% rule… if your closing loop (helps hold the whole parachute pack job together basically) is worn 10%, you need to replace it. I suppose that could go to way more areas of my life…
You’re a huge inspiration Gabe!
🙏🙏☕
Thanks for your take. I love that book.
Essentially: Grow slowly, be sustainable 👍
💯💯☕🔥
Excellent content Always!
Why oh why don't you have more subscribers?! Awesome content, incredibly well put together videos and you make sooooo much sense!!!
I really appreciate it!
I really like that glass and wood coffee maker. It's very unique.
Great content as always, Gabe.
I paused work for a few minutes to watch your video as I noticed the new upload. I think we can all benefit from slowing down at times and focusing on what's truly important. Whether that be our wardrobe, daily activities, or something else.
By the way, the Alexa in my home office picked the Playlist from your video. Great tunes 😄
Lol I didn't think about that sorry
@@GabeBult That's not a negative thing man lol. It's a good Playlist and I enjoy the music. It's a lot of what I listen to regularly. 👍
Loves your videos ! Thank you great advice
💕 love this! Thanks💕💕
Need to know more about that coffee set up that's interesting
I’m late to you but love you, thank you, you are doing a great job, blessings to you& your family ❤
Thank you for the video ✨
Thanks for watching!
True enough, that we should focus Now and not just expecting future😇
Thanks for the weekly dose of inspiration, Gabe! I'm currently working on my new album, and applying those principals to the whole process. It's helping a lot!
Awesome good luck man!
The one video a week makes sense.
Thanks for the new video.
Great ideas 💡
🙏
Reading ten books at once! 😆😆😆 I'd be getting so confused and overwhelmed. Guess that explains our inadequate education system. 😮
Thank you so much!
🙏☕
Hope you hit 500k subscribers 💪 and all use your wisdom in their own lives.
This video is helpful, thanks !
Awesome video as always! 🥰
Thanks 🙏🙏
I really love your content. I have been a subscriber to your channel for quite a long time.
Thanks I appreciate it!
Thanks 🙏 gabe
🙏🙏
I enjoy what you have to say and like taking notes. However, I only came up with 6 rules, where's the others? Suggestion: maybe you could number or say the number before taking about each rule...other than that, thank you for sharing your ideas
Great footage mate. Just tapped subscribe, because why not. Have good one!
Essential/Essentialism as a word itself is a term I can better relate to than "minimalism" (I'm in neither movement nor camp).
It is more realistic, pragmatic, practical, intentional and purposeful, and that also doesn't evoke a bare to the bones room, with just 3 items in it.
does anyone start these videos without coffee? Everyone is so obsessed with making coffee in their videos
Such an amazing chanel ! Lots of information Great job …
Great comments 👍
Background beat drives me away!
You don't need it if your thoughts are provocative.....
Great book.
the most beautiful video :)
Bro. The soundtrack in the back at the beginning SLAPS 🔊 I was listing to your video in my car, then all of a sudden, my sub woofer was GOIN’ OFF😂 gave me a great laugh. Cheers mate 🤙
About the books, somewhere I heard, reading 100 best books again and again (to implement as much as possible) is way better than reading 10000 books and implement something from every book.
great content thanks
Loving this channel. ✔️😀
🙏☕️
I want to start a CZcams channel this is so inspirational thank you so much ❤️ keep up the great work
Plenty of sound advice for such a short video, cheers 👍
Very interesting 🌎 Thanks. Greetings from Colombia. The Venezuelan immigrant writer 🇻🇪
Become the editor of your own life -- well said Gabe ❤
Thanks
I love cuts clothing been wearing them for a year now 😎
