Minimalist Rulebook: 16 Rules for Living with Less
Joshua Fields Millburn - 2020
But minimalism doesn’t work like that. What brings value to my life could very well get in the way of yours. Further, the things that once added value may not continue to add value, so we must constantly question not only the things we acquire but the things we hold on to.Because minimalism is not an antidote to desire, and because, like most people, Ryan and I still act on impulse, we’ve created sixteen rules and tactics we use to help stave off the tug of consumerism and get organized—including the No Junk Rule, the Seasonality Rule, and fourteen others—all of which are compiled in our new ebook, Minimalist Rulebook: 16 Rules for Living with Less.
