Our memories are not in our things; our memories are inside us.
Memories become clutter when they get in the way of the present moment.
Moderation is the enemy of procrastination.
If you want to start tomorrow, do it all. If you want to start today, start small.
Don’t let your crastination turn pro.
“Someday” does not exist—it is merely a trick the mind plays to avoid the present moment.
Minimalism is not a radical lifestyle—it is a practical lifestyle.
Letting go makes room for more silence, more space, more calm.
The easiest way to organize your stuff is to get rid of most of it.
To love is to see the world as it is without attempting to change it.
Letting go of people-pleasing involves letting go of the need to be liked.
