The Best Of Two Worlds

Minimalism as a new lifestyle!

A good New Year’s resolution could well be to minimize. Check our closet, drawers, cellar and garage. People usually store things that they think will be needed again, but years go by without using them and they only create anxiety and loss of space, which damages the harmony of the home. The key is, less is more. Reduce the use and consumption of material goods as much as possible, prioritize the simple over the complex and quality over quantity so that products last. Graham Hill made it very clear: “we have become such consumerist beings that we increasingly need more space, which, in addition, makes us incur large debts and generate enormous environmental footprints. Despite everything, our happiness levels remain the same as 50 years ago.”

Eliminate without mercy or fear those things you never use, identify which things have a purpose and which do not. Keep the essentials, what has some purpose in your life, the things that do not add value, recycle or sell them to give them a second life, reuse, give a place to everything, digitize everything you can, think before you buy and make what you already have functional. Minimalism does not mean not buying, but doing it more intentionally and less impulsively, eliminating the extra to gain freedom, tranquility and space. Belongings are not just products, but obligations that generate stress and debt. Minimalism has many benefits, in addition to helping the environment, improves your economy, improves the quality of life, provides freedom, order, harmony, time, reduces stress, anxiety and worries. ¿Are you ready to start?
