I’ve been practicing minimalism for about one year now. And it’s been an amazing journey so far! In this video, I share three lessons I’ve learned about minimalism this year.
I first heard about minimalism by watching the ‘Minimalism’ documentary on Netflix, a few years ago. I then read a few books on the topic, by The Minimalists, and also Fumio Sasaki’s ‘Goodbye Things’. However, I didn’t really take action until I decided to replace my couch.
Fast forward to today, almost one year later, and I’ve really embraced the minimalist philosophy. So, even though I still consider myself a total beginner, it feels right to share some of my insights about minimalism.
