When people think of minimalism they often see someone living off the grid in a tree house somewhere in the middle of nowhere. A person with many animals, who is eating vegan meals and lives a sustainable lifestyle. When you enter this person's home it has only the necessary basic items. But what if I tell you that Steve Jobs, Albert Einstein & Leonardo Da Vinci were minimalists too?Actually, the three men I mentioned above all have their own famous sayings.

Steve Jobs setup an extremely successful business, Apple, with his main lesson ''Simplify Complexity''. Also in his private life he believed in a minimalistic approach. Did you know one of the things he owned was a picture of Albert Einstein, who he admired greatly? Albert Einstein also led a very simple life and embraced minimalism. He said: ''Lead a Simple Life''. And Leonardo Da Vinci once said: ''Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication''.What are the benefits of being a minimalist?

I would like to take the time to explain what minimalism means to me and why this lifestyle is giving me so much rest, focus, time & money.

First of all I would like to say that, for me, Minimalism is a Mindset. In everything I do, I think simple. What's the fastest, most simple, most sustainable, most productive and most affordable way to do this? It's a challenge to find simplicity in everything I do. When I found that way it eventually saves me a lot of time and money, I learn a lot from it and I came up with the most sustainable way of doing it, so my decision is the best for the planet.I will give you a few simple examples in this episode.
