Do you have thousands of unread emails? Tom has 135,345 of them! How about photos...? Between Tom & Kiran, they both have over 15,000.
When people think of minimalism, they often think about getting rid of material, physical goods. But in today's world, where most things are digitized, digital clutter can also be unhealthy. So why do people keep photos, apps, and emails they will likely never read again?
What about the implications? Amongst all the noise created by digital clutter, you could miss or overlook the most important messages, photos, or emails. But ironically, digital clutter in corporations when used with some new technologies could actually lead to the uncovering of insights.
Kiran and Tom walk through a list of ways to Minimize Digital Clutter (https://www.becomingminimalist.com/25-areas-of-digital-clutter-to-minimalize/). They also look at the digitization of the office desk since 1981, demonstrating the steep shift from cork boards and fax machines to Pinterest and PDFs - all adding to digital clutter (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdOfIz-Rtb8).
The bottom line? You don't have to delete all your digital assets, but you should simplify what you see.
