When people try to imagine what minimalism is like, they often think about throwing away 95% of their stuff, having one of everything (from chairs to cups to spoons), or using the cheapest option for their everyday needs.   

But that’s not how we see it.

Minimalism, to us, is a lifestyle. It’s about cultivating a sense of fulfillment and peace of mind when we invest in things that we truly enjoy and feel is worth the money. It’s about enhancing the quality of our life, each and every time we get the chance to spend on higher quality things. Less is more, and we’re both grateful to have experienced what it feels to be a minimalist.   

If you want to know what it’s like to be a minimalist, try tossing away five things of your choice and spend more money on something that you really want, that you think will enhance the quality of your life.   

Give that a shot and see how it feels.
