How To Become A Minimalist and Enjoy The Rewards
How to become a minimalist. In my opinion, the best way to become a minimalist is to look around and locate the things that take up space and do not provide any value and discard them.
You could sell, donate, or throw them away. Do that a little every day as you go about your day.
Be careful about confusing emotional value with true value. Items that you believe to have future value but have not been used in years really have not been valued and should possibly be discarded.
It may be difficult but you can do it. You really don’t want things around that you have to clean and maintain that provide no value. This will be a positive life change.
Even if you come across a relative that sleeps on your couch all day, eating all of your food and driving up energy costs they should possibly be discarded.
Double-check to see if they provide any value before discarding. LOL.
Be vigilant and incorporate this small change in your life and practice it every day. Use the, it does not provide value or has not been used in six months you should consider discarding it a rule, over time all of those items will be gone.
When all of the clutter and useless possessions are removed from your life you will have more time and money for the things that truly add value to your life.
Organize your living space and edit down your possessions until it hurts.

- Have I used it in the last six months to a year?
