Minimalism in clothes - an autumn raskhlamleniye

I came to minimalism after moving abroad. But frankly speaking, still up to this point, me thoughts came that I have just too many things.



One year prior to moving to the USA, I moved 3 times on various circumstances.

So, as there was a need of reduction of the made decisions, I began to minimize them and in the choice of clothes, cosmetics and everywhere where it is only possible. I noticed that when the level of a stress became above an average - I began cleaning.

It is easier to organize the life when things is simple less. And cleaning takes only 15 min. In the USA it is possible to buy a lot of beautiful and cheap clothes. And in 3 months of life in Los Angeles (and I live for stock shop of brands and not only), my case was filled with clothes against the stop. And cosmetics occupied all dresser with 3 acrylic racks.

Once, when I could not decide 40 min. what to me to put on, I thought - 5 good dresses, than a heap of clothes which is difficult for picking up in a set would be better at me. By the way when the woman decides what to put on, the brain is involved at the level of the solution of the equations. And as a result, you come to work already tired of the number of the made decisions.

I took and carried back in shop clothes with labels and collected 5 advantageous images. Sold out something on eBay. When I got rid of things unnecessary me, at once lightened.

Now before purchase of any thing I estimate at once and where I will carry it and what it is combined with. In my clothes now about 30 things which are perfectly combined among themselves. And I do not spend time for considering that to me to put on today.

And at the same time, my things of steel of the best quality. I gradually began to buy more expensive things as I have some quantitative restrictions now. Now less - it became better. I choose the best, and only what sits on me ideally. Always I choose only favourite things from a case. And when in a case only favourite things, the choice it is simpler to become many times.

When all near at hand, and all cosmetics only necessary, remains nothing forgotten. Shadows are stored no more than 3 years. And when in a year some palettes were never used even, it is better not to spend for it money, and to use only one, but the best quality.

I apply this approach in everything now. Also I reduced the number of cases which do not bring me benefit. The most valuable resource that we have - it is time.

Best of all Steve Jobs spoke on this subject: "Your time is limited therefore do not waste it, living others life. Do not come across in a trap of dogma which lives results of others thinking. Do not allow noise of others opinions to muffle your own inner voice. And the most important, have courage to follow the heart and an intuition "-Gold words which became my motto for many years.

Every day and hour of the life it is necessary to spend intelligently. You begin to understand it, realizing that not all spent efforts brought benefit. And before beginning to spend the most valuable resource it is necessary to think twice, to ask the intuition - whether it is worth it or not.

I wish all good day and great mood!
