Minimalist Principles A Philosophy for Enjoying Life Less Complicated

Minimalist Principles Omitting Needless Things

When many people hear the term “Minimalist Principles,” they remove everything, making everything bare-bones and possession-less, just like when they hear the term ” Omit needless things.”

Like Minimalist Principles, omitting needless things does not mean getting rid of all of your possessions. Afterward, everything that remains should count for something and have a purpose.

• Possessions—Dictate that a person’s possessions should have a useful purpose. Are there things that can be discarded? Is everything you own essential? Does it have a purpose?

• Purchasing—Minimalist Principles dictate that people should only buy what they need and will use regularly. If an item is required and will not be used regularly, someone should try to borrow or rent it. Before buying anything over a certain dollar amount ($100 for me), there should be a waiting period (7 days) to protect against impulse buying and ensure the item is needed. This will also ensure that the person does not refill their life with useless things after decluttering and clearing them away.

• Diet – Minimalist Principles dictate a person should eat when needed and eat. Not eat just because they are bored, entertained, or at a particular time of day. How much does a person need to eat to survive, and do they need chili and cheese on those fries? LOL. I am going to say no! Why should a person fill their diet with sugary cakes and snacks? Foods where the package they come in have more nutritional value than the contents inside. Eat a simple diet where all the foods and ingredients count and add nutritional value, ensuring lasting health.

• Activities—Dictate a person’s activities with a positive purpose and meaning and add value to their life. A person’s work activities and daily to-do list should be filled with activities that count to them, not items satisfying someone else’s agenda. Their to-do list should include essential tasks for positive long-term goals and interactions with good friends and family.

• Goals—Minimalist Principles dictate that a person’s goal should not be to earn much money at all costs. While money may solve some immediate problems and should be sought, it should not be the main goal in their life pursuits. Earn what is needed and look to enjoy life’s many simple pleasures along the way. Focus on just a few important goals to ensure success. Less is more. Before that person knows it, they will possess all the wealth they want or need.

Conclusion

Minimalist Principles show how less can be more in a person’s life and provide a path to more freedom, time, space, and pleasure.

Interest in The Minimalist Lifestyle is growing as people begin learning to value experiences over stuff and material things.
