The abundance many of us enjoy in the world today has not increased our level of happiness and fulfilment. In fact, for some of us, we are less happy than the generations before us despite having more. If being more, having more and doing more are not delivering the happiness we desire, perhaps embracing less in order to live more is a viable option.

A minimalist life is about focusing on what’s truly important and that adds value to our life, getting rid of the non-essentials and clutter. Clutter comes in many shapes and forms, and essentially is anything that stands between you and the life you want to be living. Whether it’s physical clutter in your home, a cluttered mind holding you back from your true goals, or a cluttered business strategy that leaves little room for creativity, minimalism can make all the difference.

A happy and meaningful life, one that you can be proud of, requires building, crafting and curating. In the new year, make space for the good and the extraordinary, because it’s already within you.

My venture Live Well With Less was inspired by how minimalism has transformed my life and I believe it can transform yours too. Why not take that first important step of living well with less by downloading a free copy of the beautifully crafted ‘A Minimalist Life: Roadmap’ here.
