To live the best life possible, you need to let go of the idea that having all the material things is the key and focus instead on what truly matters.
When imagining the perfect life, people often think about having all the money in the world, expensive cars, houses, apartments—essentially, all the material possessions. What is often overlooked is the concept of happiness, something that can come from living with less. Even if you had all these things, you wouldn’t be as happy as you would be with things that truly matter: family, true friends, and love. These are the things that often get left behind while chasing the dream of a “perfect life” and all the money. What’s the point of owning an expensive house if you’re living in it alone? Or worse, if you’re living in it with someone you don’t love? No amount of money in the world can compensate for the feeling of loneliness.
So, first, create the right image in your mind. A perfect life is one where you spend time with the people you love, doing the things you love, and enjoying every single day.
Once you embrace the idea that a rich life is about quality, not quantity, you’ll start to see the benefits of having less. Because less is more: more time with friends, more time with family, and more time for yourself. Many people take action to start living with less—they clear out their closets, throw away everything they don’t need, and make more space for air and light in their lives.
Imagine an apartment overcrowded with furniture and unnecessary decorations. It feels cramped, as if there’s no air inside. Now imagine that same apartment after you’ve removed everything that doesn’t serve a useful purpose. What you get is a room with space to move around, where light spreads freely and it’s easier to breathe. Compare that apartment to your life. Just as you removed unnecessary furniture from the apartment, do the same with your life. Get rid of everything you don’t need—whether it’s old photos that stir up unwanted memories, friends who aren’t really friends, or that gift from your ex from five years ago. Throw it out—you don’t need it! Donate old clothes you don’t wear, and let go of items you no longer use. Stop buying things that serve no real purpose. Studies show that people only wear 20% of the clothing they own, so don’t buy anything that will end up in the other 80%.
Start living with less, and you’ll notice how much your life improves—how much more love surrounds you. Plus, you’ll save money!
