Points for living well by Anthony and Guerrero of break the twitched outcome. I meant sing a lot about minimalism recently, specifically the idea of living with less stuff and prioritizing experiences. Over the last two years. This philosophy has been incredibly effective and helping Amy and me solely craft. Ives into what we wanted them to be just so many different considerations that they can sometimes be overwhelming. To think about whether or not we ve landed where we should be. Is this ideal? Should we keep cluttering any minimalist live out of a bag or two, while some focus on having one hundred things or fewer than you, the idea, rational minimalism, perhaps living The tiny home or, in our view- and the list goes on there are so many different ways. We can choose to live our lives, but much of it real as on the constraints or rules that we apply to make those decisions which are really make

life better. If I only had a hundred things, despite several rounds of declaring, we probably still have a couple thousand things in our home. I think, would be an interesting project account and list everything one of these days, but saw high on the list as it currently sits We don't feel that our possessions are preventing us from living. The life we want. Our home is easy to clean. We don't have in its obligations to things we purchased in the past and will not feel hell down by anything. In particular, it feels like Amazon has helped us to get where we want to be. Without being said, we want to make sure that continues to be the case once more of clothing or small gadget here and there one to make a noticeable difference are happiness and environment. The problem comes when we slip into a state of relative comfort, things build up and all the sudden the clutter causes in. Indeed, that's the purpose of the rules that people create for themselves. They're, not something intended to create discomfort or unhappiness in your life instead of the rules should act

simple, guide and alert of source or a notification that it's time to consider how things are changing. Once you run up against, a boundary that you created Ding, it's time to mentally check in and see if the choices you're making are still in alignment with your vision. Perhaps something has changed since then, and you for it another way. Now that's the benefit of creating these types of checks, Ours is in your life, their wake up, call to evaluate if things are still going as you hoped they would, if not it's time, to adjust. Modify the rule and move on if we spend all of our time testing over whether or not we have a hundred items or fewer or wondering if we might be happier with less clutter it defeats. The purpose of minimum altogether. I've been using these concepts, for you years now, and here are three- samples of them. In my everyday life number one undershirts and gravity

I used to own over fifty t shirts, and I didn't even like all of them, free promotional, Sures from events altered. From way too long ago, etc. They occupied multiple stacks, all my closet shells and took up a ton of space, Doing laundry became a massive chore due to wearing nearly every sure between washings. I dont needed about forty of those shirts and have since picked up only a few. I found a lover simply gray teachers without anything on them. Instead of putting the shirts and a folded stuck in my closet, I stack them verdict my dresser drawer in a single column, the stream. I my laundry and allowed me to take the time to hang dry all the shows I have this makes them last longer and have less wrinkles. But that's beside the point. My life is better owning only t shirts, I really love, so I want to keep it that way as soon as it gets or to fit all of my shirt into the single column of my dress, drawer, I know assigned a question there are not I still want. All of them is a quick reminder of.

All the time I save doing laundry and the extra care I provide to the shirts, I do love number two physical books. After purging all of my unread bucks, I decided to create a new rule. I tried the Kindle on E book thing than it was not for me, Fourteen information, much better when I'm reading a physical book and decided to stick with the real deal, the rule, I would not purchase or borrow a new book until neither finished or given away the above that has previously reading I knew that had a habit of buying books and then not reading them, which is normally wasteful, but simply a bad idea is my desire to learn about the books topic, but then the shining book would come into play and pull me away from it. This rule forces meat. Knowledge when I'm not interested in finishing a book which is totally ok actually makes me act on getting rid of the book before acquiring the new one. Secondly, all my books are my night stange roar. The space limitation allows me to focus

on a small number of books that I want a reference from time to time and similar to the shirts, provides its again when I have more than I can fit in the drawer number three screen time days and in front of a smartphone or someone. My worst days as far as it can be to checking with friends and loved ones, are technology infinite. Rolling social media platforms and media websites play in human psyche in like a drug. Try to keep us coming back. I use an app called moment on my Iphone try. My daily usage allows me to limit the amount of time spent on the phone and up to take your business with some wiggle room. I dont often have issues with this, as I try to leave my phone on his charge in the other room as much as possible business having a backup to or to keep these in check. It doesn't feel bad at the time, but, looking back on a day when I spend too much time on my digital devices just feels heavy, we can spend our time

much better ways, even simply relaxing or doing something, com or mines. How bout you while may seem. Creating these types of restrictions on your life may make you miserable take some time to conceal what rules you might make for yourself.
