If you're feeling bogged down by all of your stuff

This book is a must read if you are starting your journey to minimalism! It will help you see what's most important in your life and what to do with it.

Not what I expected

Another book that is trying to connect philosophy but ends up partly philosophizing and partly recycling the practicality of simplicity. Although I do respect the effort of the author it sounded like an endless short talk.

Decluttering and Minimizing

Well organized and easy to remember. Performed well. Voice inflictions were appropriate. Will be referring to this book again.

Tactical tips

Love this book! Appreciate the concepts of inner-circle vs. outer-circle. Good idea! Appreciate the great, tactical tips!
