Understanding the concepts of minimalism in general has taught me a vital lesson which has shaped my life till date. Initially I didn't really understand what minimalism meant, it felt like a self deprivation and when people around me thought I was restricting myself to enjoying life to the fullest, I thought they were right and looking out for me which they are in their own way.
It took me time to actually research and make findings as regards to minimalism, to adjust my reasoning to my discovery and my lifestyle.
So far, I have come to appreciate minimalist lifestyle the more because of the way it seems to make complex things look so simple and easy to actually accomplish.
My three main reasons for adopting minimalism is value, happiness and setting goals.
You might wonder how value comes to play with minimalism, well I shop a lot both for personal and business purposes. Since adoption of minimalism, I ensure I get value for my money, I buy what I really need and I don't go with trends because they will definitely phaseout with time.
Another reason for my adoption of minimalism is the happiness that comes with it. Minimalism actually helped me shrugged off a lot of weight I didn't even realize I was carrying until I dropped it. A minimalist lifestyle helps me stay and remain focused, it help me appreciate the tiniest efforts people make, it helps me appreciate life the more and to find happiness wherever possible. It is the most beautiful life course, free of unnecessary attachment to materialism.
My third reason is the realization of my set goals. With minimalism, I can actually set both short and long term goals and achieve them more easily because of my choice of lifestyles.
Cutting down on unnecessarily expenses, looking good on a budget and living a simple life is a good opportunity to save up for other bigger and more important goals that can be achieved in the future.
There are many other reasons for my adoption of minimalism lifestyle and it's been a tremendous experience to share this three reasons with you all.
Minimalism helps me find joy and appreciate the little things of life and that's what makes us truly happy. I'm happy to have chosen this path of life that breeds genuine happiness.
