Why I Love Simplifying

by Raymund Tamayo

I’m an avid fan of simplifying.

Because the process of simplifying is really the process of asking yourself, “What’s important?” and that leads to a powerful life.

We tend to forget what’s important in the confusion of day-to-day living.

We need a mindfulness signal, and simplifying is that signal for me.

There are several areas of my life where I simplify.

I pare down my wardrobe on a regular basis.

I remove unnecessary objects in my room.

I clear out programs in my computer which I don’t use.

I say no to activities which are not according to my values.

Simplifying is a beautiful way to focus life, and a focused life gives opportunities to do what really matters.
