Essentialism

I’ve been thinking a lot about minimalism. Not minimalism of stuff, but minimalism of lifestyle.

Only bringing into my life what truly matters. Letting go of the rest.

I’ve also been listening to Greg McKeown’s Essentialism book, and it’s totally been transforming my way of looking at what I need to do in my life.

Do I really need to be checking social media THAT much? Even if I use it for business?

Do I really need to have THAT many things on my to do list? Could some of them be reduced?

Do I really need to bring THAT much stuff with me? Will I really need it?

The answer is usually no. Almost always.

So I’m learning to declutter my own process of decision making.

Leaving only what is essential.
