I believe that less is more, especially regarding owning stuff. In my opinion, owing less means less stress, less debt, fewer distractions, and fewer liabilities. Consequently, it leads to having more time, more money, more freedom, and, overall, more happiness. I happily describe myself as a minimalist. People are my priority, not material possession. In my opinion, the quest of life is about purpose, meaning, adventure, not accumulating goods. It doesn't mean I own nothing; it implies that I'm surrounded by things that bring me joy and utility.

For me, being a minimalist means removing excess possessions to focus on things that matter the most. It means living more intentionally and exercising temperance. In my opinion, it's not even about owning less; it's about desiring less, about having enough. By living for yourself, you avoid playing an endless status game filled with greed, envy, and jealousy. You preserve your time and embrace the simplicity required to be truly happy!
