Practical tips to start living a sustainable minimalist lifestyle
As you may already know, it is very common for people to attach much more importance to material things than they should. Minimalism helps us make room for the truly important things in life: our passions, what drives us, our family, our health, etc. But it also helps us be more conscious of the environment as minimalism and sustainability go hand-in-hand. Living a minimalist lifestyle often brings us very close to also living a sustainable lifestyle. Let’s look at how we can take that extra step to protect our planet.
A sustainable lifestyle is not only easy to achieve but if done right, it can be a really rewarding experience. This book will give you some easy tips to lead a more sustainable lifestyle.
The Diderot Effect: Why we want things we don't need?
The phenomenon, “part psychological, and part deliberate manipulation,” drives heedless shopping and creates needless waste.
There are more examples of the Diderot Effect all around us:
- We buy a new shirt or dress…and immediately begin looking for new shoes to match, instead of maintaining a minimalist wardrobe.
- We bring home a new couch…and suddenly the end tables in our living room appear old and shabby, in need of replacement.
- We move into a new home…and use the occasion to replace our existing bedroom set with a new one.
In each circumstance, the reality is that we already owned enough shoes and our end tables and bedroom furniture worked just fine before. But because something new had been introduced into our lives, we were immediately drawn into a process of spiraling consumption.

Story
Minimalism is about getting closer to what gives you pleasure. We are all aware that quality of life has nothing to do with consumer products, and that "substance" is not a measure of success. A minimalist life leads to freedom — freedom from debt, unrest, and the rat-race. Any excessive things, whether unused, unnecessarily purchased, or unfulfilling in nature that you remove will feel like a weight lifted from your shoulders.

Fumio Sasaki is not an enlightened minimalism expert or organizing guru like Marie Kondo - he's just a regular guy who was stressed out and constantly comparing himself to others, until one day he decided to change his life by saying goodbye to everything he didn't absolutely need. The effects were remarkable: Sasaki gained true freedom, new focus, and a real sense of gratitude for everything around him.

Story
Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the weight and burden of our clutter, and we tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. While excess consumption leads to bigger houses, faster cars, fancier technology, and cluttered homes, it never brings happiness. Rather, it results in a desire for more. It redirects our greatest passions to things that can never fulfill, and it distracts us from the very lives we wish we were living. But it doesn't have to be this way.
