Have Enough

"From a psychological standpoint, more is all we know. In the western world, at least, most people grow up watching their parents long for more. If they are in a tight financial situation, this shows up when parents look to earn more money. But even when people have more money than they could possibly spend, the longing for more shows up in the purchase of more things and fancier vacations to get away from the responsibility associated with those things. Makes sense, right?" New post up! Check it out and let me know what you think!

I'm sorry for the delay since my last post! These last few days have been pretty busy so I have been playing catch-up. These are some tips I found helpful in doing so! As always, let me know what you think and if there is anything that you would add.

I didn’t start off as a minimalist for financial reasons. But now, looking back, it’s hard to understand why I wouldn’t have. Especially as a student, my income is limited. Very limited. And because I don’t want to have to spend decades paying off my student loans or ask my parents for money all the time, I try not to overspend.

As promised, here is a little introduction to two commonly used methods of chipping away at debt. Take a peek and let me know what you think. Consider sharing if you think that this can be useful to someone in your network!

"The biggest problem that most people have when packing is considering too many what if situations as though they wouldn’t be able to survive the situation if it came up. Obviously, you want to minimize risks for disaster I wouldn’t advise you to leave your EpiPen at home, for example but what qualifies as a disaster in our minds is most often actually a slight inconvenience at most, like when you have to wear the same jumper two days in a row because the weather forecast said it would be warmer than it actually was."

New post up! Here’s a taste: But I am going to suggest the idea that you’ve done this crazy minimalist thing before. Maybe you didn’t realize it because you didn’t feel as though you were deprived of anything, but that’s kind of the point. I’m also going to suggest that you enjoyed the minimalist lifestyle while you lived it, no matter how long that may have been. Hope you enjoy! Like and share if you feel that it can add value to others’ lives.
