Less stuff = more dream-building
Five quick but punchy questions for simplifying your stuff
Does your stuff ever stress you out?
Try these questions for less attachment to the stuff every one of us is going to leave behind one day:
Do I even like this thing?
Would/could I buy it again?
Am I only keeping it out of a feeling of guilt or obligation?
Do I remember who gave me this sentimental item? If you don’t, it’s not sentimental.
How many of this item does a person really need? If we’re talking about turner spatulas, the correct answer is two.
Putting it plain and simple, you can do more interesting things with your life if you have less stuff to maintain.
MTYL Insiders (paid subscribers): Scroll down to the bottom for a quick audio about my extended travel experiences & learning to enjoy living with much less. These past two years of travel abroad and in the States were like a graduate-level practicum in minimalism...Here's to your big dreams, and to really living. See you in the next one…
P.S. If the subject of less stuff captures your fancy, you might enjoy this “Holding Our Things Lightly” story I shared earlier in the year. It’s about a cool friend who lived in two tents while their house was being built. For two years. As a family of six.
