Practicing Minimalism:
In my last article, I talked about “slow living” concept which is getting more and more popular these days during covid outbreak, today we’ll talk about the first step towards a slow living, which is adopting a minimalistic lifestyle.

The rule is simple,

Keep only and only the absolute necessary things that you need in your space.

Quality over quantity.

It's essentially de-cluttering your home and keeping only few things around.

I have always been a person who likes to collect a lot of things in my room and it's all a big mess. Even if I don't need something, I tend to hold on to it and keep it around, for the time when I might need it!

But over the period I’ve realised that this is very ineffective way to lead your daily life, it makes you feel confused, un organized and unfocused.

Plus it makes cleaning your room a pain in the ass.

Minimalism let’s you focus on working on your skills, on learning, earning diverse experiences rather than collecting things, and teaches you getting along with fewer stuffs.

It’s a lifestyle choice for the people who have dedicated their life to a greater purpose, and they need more and more time to work on it, to hone a particular skill, to create new inspiring things.

So this December I've decided to take on minimalism as a lifestyle and to gradually work towards "slow living"

Now don’t mistake me here when I say living slow for being lazy or giving excuse to not working hard!

It’s exactly the opposite,

It’s for making your focus laser sharp, it’s choosing your own battle, your own timeline for achieving things, and which things to achieve too!

I’ve already de-cluttered my space, discarded a lot of things that were just lying around and only kept things which are required for my daily work.

I still have a long way to go with minimalism, but let’s see, I’m taking it up as a experiment.

And experiments are vital to grow in your life..

I'll keep you guys updated with my experiment with minimalism, and my findings and experiences with it.
