The Art of Decluttering · Path of Least Resistance · 2 Aug 2026 podcast

There's all of these different tabs open.

So that's what I mean is when we have to make decisions,

all these tabs get open.

And so our brains are like, let me find the path of least resistance.

And minimalism is a way of experiencing that path of least resistance.

So for example, I used to always have like a big pack of, like a collection of greeting cards.

So if I was going to a baby shower or a wedding or a birthday, or I just wanted to say the thank you card or I'm thinking of your card or an encouragement card,

I could always go and pick one from there.

What I found though, was that managing that and making sure I had the right amount of different ones and some of the ones were a bit old and so I'd get rid of those.

That was like a whole mental tap.

And so now if I need a card, I keep one pack of cards and they're all exactly the same.

And I figured that I'm probably not sending cards to the same person and say, yeah,

six month period and when that pack empties I'll just order a new pack of a different design and so I've like path of least resistance everybody for the next six months gets the same card and that works for me it's not it's not a branded card it's just got a really nice print on the front and then six months later I'll change that over and there's new cards in my collection

And so not having to make constant decisions, not having to manage stock, not having to think about all these additional things in your home can actually make a really big difference.

So the way to create the path of least resistance in your home is to make things easy and make it so you don't have to make decisions.

I've got some examples that I want to go through with you.

So when you think about your kitchen, having the path of least resistance is going to save you an incredible amount of time.

And it's also just going to keep the flow going and it's going to stop clutter building up.

So when you think about how you unpack your groceries, if you don't have a system, if you don't have a path of least resistance, the easiest way to get it done, then possibly what you're going to do is bring in the groceries.

You might put them all on the floor, the bags on the floor, because maybe the bench is already full of other things.
