About this listen

Minimalism is the thing that gets us past the things that clutter our lives so we can make room for life's most important things - which actually aren't things at all.

At age 30, best friends Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus walked away from their six-figure corporate careers, jettisoned most of their material possessions, and started focusing on what's truly important. In their debut book, Joshua and Ryan, authors of the popular website TheMinimalists.com, explore their troubled pasts and descent into depression. Though they had achieved the American Dream, they worked ridiculous hours, wastefully spent money, and lived paycheck to paycheck. Instead of discovering their passions, they pacified themselves with ephemeral indulgences, which only led to more debt, depression, and discontent.

After a pair of life-changing events, Joshua and Ryan discovered minimalism, allowing them to eliminate their excess material things so they could focus on life's most important things: health, relationships, passion, growth, and contribution.

Merecedor de más de una escuchada.

Es toda una guía si quieres transformar tu vida desde adentro. No es para escucharlo una vez y ya, sino para tenerlo de referencia, repasar los capítulos y tomar notas.

Life Changing Book!

I am 19 that’s driven by material things and are in circles of bad relationships. After this book I slowly start implementing in my life and I am 1 month in and my life is getting better. I am currently in college for nursing. I love to be a nurse and that’s what I’m passionate about. But I also have a lot of other passions and this book help me find those. I also am currently fixing my diet, I have been hitting the gym for 3-4 years now but only started focusing on diet after this book. Thank you for this knowledge, I’ll give an update in a year

Great message but the narrative seems rush

Tackle the 5 most important aspects of life while asking questions that really matter.
The narrator sounds very rush, it sounds like I'm putting the sound at x1.5 speed.

Inspirational in so many ways.

I've gone through this book three times now and I've watched their documentary more than once. They have truly inspired me to change my view of the world and what I do day to day including my job and how I treat the people that matter to me. Do yourself a favor and listen to this book. it will change your life.

Not what I was looking for

Should be titled: 5 values to live a meaningful life. I got this book thinking it would be about the philosophy and practical implementation of living with fewer things, what to get rid of, what to keep etc, there was none of this, instead it read like a life coaching book.

Great Book

The reader can't pronounce the word "important". That gets annoying, but the content of the book is great.
