In this vlog, I am just explaining what my typical day looks like! In short a fun vlog about life of a minimalist. :) “Simplicity, clarity, singleness: These are the attributes that give our lives power and vividness and joy as they are also the marks of great art.” —Richard Holloway I am often asked the question, “So what is minimalism anyway?” It is a question I receive from people I have just met and from people I have known for many years. MINIMALISM IS OWNING FEWER POSSESSIONS. Like I mentioned before, minimalism is intentionally living with only the things I really need—those items that support my purpose. I am removing the distraction of excess possessions so I can focus more on those things that matter most. That is my short, elevator-pitch answer. But oftentimes I desire to answer more in-depth. When people ask follow-up questions that allow me to explain simple living further, I like to add: IT IS INTENTIONALITY. It is marked by clarity, purpose, and intentionality. At its core, being a minimalist means intentionally promoting the things we most value and removing everything that distracts us from it. It is a life that forces intentionality upon us. As a result, it forces improvements in almost all aspects of your life. Intentionality looks different for everybody, as no two individuals are the same, but it requires each of us to dive deeper and become more introspective about our values and passions.
