Now, the things I do buy I make sure they are of exceptional quality and will last, as well as remind me of abundance and the passion that went into their construction.
By the way, in my experience the fastest way to change the way you live is to change WHERE you live. Nothing breaks old habits faster than completely and utterly changing your surroundings. |
I feel exactly the same. Moving houses/cities about 6x in the last 10 years and between 2 countries was just perfect to declutter. Everytime I moved it was a big "chuck it party". If it did not fit into a car, I either gave it to friends or tossed it. The best is starting a paperless life. Those bloody books take so much space and weigh so much. Now everything is ebook or audiobook except for maybe 10 paperbacks. I scan invoices and then toss them. I could live in a very zen apartment, but for the sake of guests, I put some pictures on the walls
