It’s common to hear people lament about how much clutter and how little time we all have in our lives and how much money it costs just to live. But does it have to be this way? Does all of the money we work so hard to earn go toward just maintaining our crazy lifestyles? Do we have to live amongst closets and drawers full of junk we don’t need and barely use? Do we need to be so bloated in our lifestyles that we are constantly tired and weighed down?
I believe the answer to all of this is “No, of course not!” Each of us is free to reject over-consuming, expensive mortgages, and too-complicated lifestyles. And it’s easier to do this than you might think. More and more people are discovering the ease and the freedom of the tiny house movement. If you’re caught in the cycle of always looking to acquire more stuff, you may have never considered moving into a small space. But doing so has led to a better quality of life and more fulfillment for many people. That doesn’t mean it’s for you, just that it’s something you may want to keep in mind if you find yourself constantly feeling overwhelmed.
