3. Follow ‘One In, One Out’ Rule: This is one of the most important steps of a minimalist lifestyle. It implies that every item you are adding to your home or space must replace the other item that you already have.
In addition, to maintain your clutter, this approach will also help you to think twice and re-evaluate the actual need for the new purchase. This will help you in deciding whether you actually need that thing or not.
4. Be Organized and Introduce Systems: Minimalist lifestyle requires you to be organized in order to save your time and energy which you could be otherwise spending on unworthy tasks.
The best way to do this is identifying the areas of your activities that is eating up most of your time and introduce a system to help you cope. This simply means that if you are spending too much of your time manually washing your clothes, it is a good idea to invest in a washing machine.
5. Clear-out ‘Just In Case’ stuff: It happened with almost everyone. We tend to buy stuff for that ‘imaginary’ special occasion that never comes in our life making our home filled with unnecessary stuff that we have never even touched in years.
