In a world full of complexity, simplicity is often overlooked. Yet, simplicity is a virtue worth practicing, as it helps to reduce confusion and limits the need for lengthy explanations.
True simplicity requires wisdom. It is not about doing less out of laziness and calling it simplicity. Simplicity touches every area of life. In the academic world, for instance, some speakers use jargon that leaves their audience confused, especially when addressing people with varying academic levels. I have a professor friend who always says, "Any English that passes 'is' and 'was,' you will not hear me say it or use it in my writing." This clearly shows that he uses simple words to communicate effectively, and his message still makes sense. Even in classrooms, some teachers confuse their students with unnecessary jargon.
In the fashion world, we often see designs that are hard to explain. Personally, I always tell my tailor, "Make my dress simple, no much design," because I believe that maturity is found in simplicity. Simplicity in fashion does not mean dressing shabbily, but dressing in a simple, mature, and presentable way.
In life, some people say yes to everything and everyone just to blend in and receive praise, thinking that’s simplicity. But for me, simplicity in life means being flexible while knowing your stand and having limits. People might not like you for that, but don’t worry, they will get used to your pattern, and in the end, everyone will be fine.
In leadership, simplicity is very important, but it must be implemented with wisdom to avoid being misused or underrated. Well, this particular point deserves a full discussion on its own.
Choose simplicity and choose happiness, choose simplicity and choose peace of mind, choose simplicity and reject fake life.
In all, embracing simplicity is choosing to live an intentional life, with clarity, peace, and purpose.
