I love 'retail therapy' as much as the next person... but would having less stuff make us happier?

Is there anything wrong with buying stuff for yourself if you want it?

Is commercialism something that we need to fear?

Does minimalism have anything to do with Life By Design?

Minimalism - A Documentary About Important Things is tearing up right now.

Countless number of people have told me about the movie, told me I should watch it, and said that the documentary reminded them of me. I took that as a compliment... at least I hope it was meant that way!

When I asked them what they thought or liked about the movie, they told me that they liked the idea of having fewer things, wanted to be happier and saw minimalism as a way to achieve that happiness. However, they found the idea of getting rid of things challenging and were not sure they could really do it.

Here Is What We Covered

• Your values should be the most important thing in your life and your life objectively should be your #1 value.
• Don't listen to anyone else. There is always someone, in every movement who is waiting to fill your brain with what they want you to think or feel. Do not get drawn into that trap.
• Minimalism might or might not make you happy; it depends on your values.
• Minimalism is not a complete ideology, so it's not a 'my way or the highway' approach.
• Where does happiness come from and how do you find it?

Thank you for joining the Drive to ONE MILLION People Worldwide Living Life By Design.
