Minimalist Life Hack

 

Minimalist Life Hack: The "5-Minute Shelf" Decluttering Method (For Closets, Kitchens, or Digital Files)

Step 1: Pick one small area (e.g., a single shelf in your closet, one kitchen drawer, or a desktop folder).

Step 2: Set a timer for 5 minutes (prevents overwhelm).

Step 3: Sort items into 3 piles:

  • Keep: Only what you love or use regularly.

  • Toss/Donate: Anything broken, unused, or unloved.

  • Relocate: Items that belong somewhere else (deal with these after the timer).

Step 4: Stop when the timer goes off. Celebrate progress!

Why It Works:
✅ Tiny focus area = no decision fatigue.
✅ Quick wins build momentum.
✅ Repeat daily/weekly for effortless decluttering.

Bonus Tip: For digital files, use the same method—sort one folder at a time!
