It's easy to be a minimalist. Decide to be a minimalist and simply be one. That part is easy. Changing your existing habits to match your new choice is the challenging part. Do you feel stressed? Do you have fights with your partner or children over the clutter in the house? Do you 'lose' things in your home? Is the thought of having unexpected guest coming over distressing? Do you run out of money before the end of the month? Do you feel trapped in chaos? You can reduce clutter. You can reduce your stress. You can save time. You can save money. You can improve your health. You will help the environment. Your home will look beautiful and inviting.
