#MOVING AND BECOMING A MINIMALIST HOW TO#

What makes you feel happy, proud, and loved? What fuels your heart and gets you out of bed in the morning? Reflect on your life and ask yourself what’s important? Instead, it’s creating a clear understanding of your values and priorities.

This is why the first step on your minimalism journey isn’t decluttering. If you want to have more of what really matters in your life, then you need to start by knowing … what really matters in your life! A simple minimalist tip? Define “how much is enough” for you. If this resonates with you, then these minimalist lifestyle tips that will help you grow this mindset and move forward on your journey. Instead, I was making space for the important things and taking the first steps towards creating a life I truly love. I really started to change my life when I stopped thinking about minimalism in terms of what I couldn’t have ( a mindset that relies on willpower) and started viewing it as an intentional choice to have more of what matters. I wasn’t giving up anything. But binge decluttering without fundamentally changing your mindset is like crash dieting-it doesn’t last and “stuff” will eventually creep back into your life (spoken from personal experience!). Of course, owning fewer things is an important part of minimalism. The *spark* that changed everything was realising that minimalist living is about so much more than just decluttering-in the same way that healthy living is about so much more than just dieting. It took a while but fortunately, I eventually had a breakthrough-and that’s what I want to share with you today.

I was tired of settling and I wanted something different for myself, but I just didn’t know how to change the habits of a lifetime.

It was so frustrating because I knew I was acting against my own best interest. I’d declutter a few bags of stuff one weekend … only to find myself in Target a few days later, filling my cart to the brim with more things that I didn’t really need. It was often a case of one step forward, two steps back. In fact, it took me years to go from “wanting to be a minimalist” to actually following through and making any noticeable changes in my life. I’ve been pursuing a minimalist lifestyle for nearly a decade now, but it hasn’t always been easy for me. Are you struggling with too much stuff? These powerful yet unexpected minimalist lifestyle tips will help you live a meaningful life -one with less clutter and more of what matters.
