So I've always wanted to do a room tour, but there's always
one thing that's stopping me, which is my closet.
My closet has been a mess since I moved up here from another room, so
the other room has a bigger closet. It is better designed
and just more functional than the one I have right now.
It's been a stressor for me to walk in there and grab my clothes.
I just have not been able to make the closet work for me.
I honestly believe that the environment makes such a huge
impact in our life, even though we may not notice it.
Once you try to add more light into your space
and more space into your space, you can definitely feel that mentally as well.
You will have more room to be creative to be productive. I honestly
believe that environment is so important in creating the life
that you want. Since I know that this has been bothering me
for a while, and I thought Spring is the perfect time to
finally tackle this challenge. The goal today is to make sure
that everything I own either serves a purpose or I'm using
them to their full potential. If they can serve someone else
better, then they should either be donated sold or just recycled.
Really, it's not about owning less stuff.
It's about owning just the stuff that I need. Today, we will be
focusing on the clothing category, so let's get started.
Just wanted to show you guys what we are dealing with today.
I've tried to make arrangements to make it work, but it just
doesn't. Even though it looks like there's a lot of space,
but I haven't been able to utilize it really well.
Because I'm only renting a room here, I also store a lot of
miscellaneous stuff in here like my luggage, boxes for the
tech stuff. This is what we're working with, and I know the
first step to Marie Kondo's method is to get everything out of the closet.
So we shall be doing that.
You have a lot of dresses you have not worn before.
I thought people are going to get married, and I thought I was going to get invited!
I wonder who that is.
I mean you love Marvel.
How often do you wear it?
I think I wear it every summer, but...
Okay, summer's coming up. Do you think you're going to wear it?
Maybe at Disneyland?
Are you going to Disneyland this summer?!
Probably!
I think it's softer than I wanted it to be and shorter.
And more form fitting than I want it.
So I think you already answered your question.
It's everything you don't want or everything you wish it was.
Judy!
What do you use it for?
It's a bag!
For what?
There's a bag for everything. What's it for?
Everyday bag.
How often have you used it every day?
...not often.
So...
How can we make messes cinematic?
Should we try some slow-mo?
So I would say it's a success. We have our discard pile here.
My next task is to figure out if I'm donating them, giving
them away, or trying to sell it, or recycle. I'm going to try to
go to Goodwill and save some for Dress for Success.
They're two nonprofit organizations.
Uniqlo- they do take clothes for recycling. So I'll probably
do that there. And then, we have our keep piles. This is all my
clothes so I think they should be able to fit in the closet now.
I have socks left. That's it. I think we did really well.
Have fun cleaning it up.
It is just you and me now.
Where's my coffee?
Taking a break before we get started again. Not too bad.
Thanks to Judy for helping me make some decisions and kind of
just reminding me that I say that quality is important, but
do I really live it, right? I still have clothes from super
cheap places. They literally last forever because they're
like plastic or something. I guess it will be a goal for me
to work on like learning about clothes more. What fits me,
and what does it mean to have high quality clothes? So that
will be something we can learn more about. I'll have to divide
them into trash pile, donation pile, and give away. So that's
like if I think someone can have a better use of them, then
I'll find a better home for them. We shall continue.
ahhhhh!
Are we going to sleep tonight?
So it's been a really really really long day, and the only
task I have left is to take these bags to donation centers
or recycling. Overall, I think we made a lot of progress.
That's it for today. I hope you feel inspired to clean your
closet, too. It just feels great to let go of things
that's been holding you back. If you enjoyed this video, please

Bye!
