Overview

"Throwing away possessions can be hard.....at first... In the simplest terms, minimalism is a lifestyle wherein individuals try to live their lives in the simplest possible form. People who practice this lifestyle are called minimalists and they adopt an ""experience-centric"" life rather than a ""material-centric"" one. Possibly the biggest sign that a person is a minimalist is that they purchase only what they need instead of what they want. Of course, that's the most straightforward way of describing this lifestyle. Minimalists, on the other hand, have a more diverse way of describing their chosen lifestyle, encompassing not just the things they buy but also their daily habits and personal beliefs that lead to a simpler existence. A common joke about minimalists is that in order to become one, you have to reduce the things you own to just 100 items. In fact, some people say that they only own a total of 10 things in their life - which is something not everyone can imagine. However, this isn't the whole point of minimalism. Some minimalists still have laptops, a mobile phone, or an internet connection. The only difference is that they don't treat these objects as importantly as a non-minimalist would. The gadgets are regarded simply as tools to be used for specific tasks and then left alone when those tasks are finished. Hence, what you should understand is that minimalism isn't just about downsizing everything you own to the point where you only have 10 or 100 items in your possession. No - this is all about changing your perspective and how you see life. Minimalists take pride in enjoying their lives to the fullest by eliminating all the stress and worries and replacing them with freedom and peace of mind."
