< The Pursuit of Less: Anyone Else on This Journey?
I'm on the same journey, but I try to be cautious: it's not so much about having less but about not having more. That gadget you already bought but never used? Do not rush at throwing it away. Keep it. You may want to use it in the future, who knows? Or maybe you find someone to whom you could gift it, or maybe you even find a buyer. The real shame would be to throw everything away in a hurry to become minimalist and later you find out that you really needed that one thing, so now you need to buy another one.
I'm also focusing a lot on, when I do need to acquire new stuff (because who doesn't?), trying to pick things that last, things I can fix, used things that other people are selling, in short, sustainable things.
I really enjoyed your thoughts on this, I hope you stay on this path!
