“The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less.”

“Deciding what not to do is as important as deciding what to do.”

“Anything less than a conscious commitment to the important is an unconscious commitment to the unimportant.”

To minimize your life is choosing to live by design, not by default. You decide where to allocate your time, focus, and efforts.

Minimalizing Your Life

<ol><li>Decide what’s unimportant: cover the low priorities of your life. You might discover you are focusing on the wrong priorities and cluttering your brain and wasting your time.</li><li>Know what’s important: move to what’s really important to you. These are the things you love, bringing you joy.</li><li>Question everything, constantly: adopt a new mentally of simplification, questioning yourself constantly if you are allocating your time, attention, and money, wisely.</li></ol>

"Clarity about what matters provides clarity about what does not.”

What minimizing your life will bring you:<ul><li>More Efficiency: You finally have enough time to do what’s truly important.</li><li>More Time: Owning and doing things carry high costs. Doing less frees up your time to focus on the essential few.</li><li>Less Stress: No more overloaded schedules, running from one place to the next, always rushing.</li><li>Better Health: having and doing less calms your mind and brings clarity.</li><li>Freedom: things don’t own you anymore, you only own things you love. </li></ul>

Why Minimizing Your Life

To minimize your life is choosing to live by design, not by default. You decide where to allocate your time, focus, and efforts. I read Essentialism months ago. But a quote in the book stayed on my mind: "You cannot overestimate the unimportance of practically everything."― John Maxwell Days passed and I kept pondering this simple sentence.
