This audiobook is about using minimalist ideas to help you identify areas in your life that are working against you. This audiobook will also walk you through the process to best use minimalism in your life to simplify and improve every area.

Story
Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the weight and burden of our clutter, and we tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. While excess consumption leads to bigger houses, faster cars, fancier technology, and cluttered homes, it never brings happiness. Rather, it results in a desire for more. It redirects our greatest passions to things that can never fulfill, and it distracts us from the very lives we wish we were living. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Even after she worked her way out of nearly $30,000 of consumer debt, her old habits took hold again. When she realized that nothing she was doing or buying was making her happy - only keeping her from meeting her goals - she decided to set herself a challenge: she would not shop for an entire year. The Year of Less documents Cait's life for 12 months during which she bought only consumables.

A preoccupation with money and possessions is not only unhealthy, it can also drain the true joy from life. In recent years, millions have watched their American Dreams go up in smoke.

I appreciate that the author has divided the chapters into different parts of the house and has given lists on how to tackle them. The personal stories from others were also inspiring. Ben Smith did a great job.

Great prespective
What I really appreciated from the very start of the book is the approach to the topic. I was fully expecting the author to tell me to get rid of all my belongings. The exercises & questions inspire real change and help shape your vision to the life you’ve always wanted. It’s easy to read and makes everything seem possible! Highly recommended.
