"A good Traveler is the flat-rate plans and is not intent, arrive." ~ Lao Tzu
Often what inspired me to become a minimalist me are asked to reply to: (I) fell with the love of traveling lightly.
Over-packing a few tours after a heavy suitcase — and the misery of lugging around — have sworn never check a bag again. On the day of my first trip to Europe, I opted for a small Re-has instead (replace my wardrobe of clothes laundry detergent package).
The experience was even more! I was a mobile, flexible and fancy free. I felt such as unable to go anywhere and do anything, when I am not loaded down with goods. and I thought, Wow, if it feels great to have this to travel lightly, how nice whether to live this way?
I started my home with the same fervor, edit the content, such as I had in my suitcase. as I ditched slowly extra "baggage", I think, my shoulders would be capable of starting weight.
Extra possessions are like an extra baggage: they bind to us, you will receive in a manner and drain our sense of energy and adventure. (Never passed up to the job offer, without the hassle of moving or for a vacation, because nobody "watch House"?)
Instead, the less stuff you have, the more nimble we will worry about — and better able to embrace new opportunities and experiences.
Back to our freedom, we must simply lightens our loads.We can make a loan a few compression techniques:
Start with a clean slate. tourist with a suitcase, and then click Start a blank for each item that it goes. A similar approach to take when decluttering: clear the drawer, or accommodation unit you want to work with the entire contents of the room.Then carefully examine each item and decide whether you want to restore the status on the other hand, what should I select what to toss.
Question for each item. a small re-is for each item is dragged its weight. Require the same of household possessions: a voice conversation, on the basis of their stuff and ask what value is added to your life.If the answer is "not much", you can give it a heave-ho.
Impose restrictions on the.To keep his bag light supporter may limit his trousers two, three of his shirts and his socks Match strategy four. allows you to keep in contact with the stuff on their own, for example, under the supervision of: decide to only five jerseys, fifty books or high speed passenger craft supplies, which fit in a single storage location box.
Modules use.Take your inspiration at the time of packing cubes and collect items (cosmetics, Office equipment, video games) as modules separate "."Consolidation of your own stuff, you can see how much you have, weed out duplicates, and still use the accumulation on the deck.
Think diversity. to save space on behalf of the batches of light tablets manufacturers, double-or triple-duty (such as clothing, which can be up or down in the white paper, and different levels of the different climates). Use the same principle at home: select versatile, or the development of a multi-functional items (such as the sleeper sofa, or all-purpose saute Pan) in a single-task.
Digitoida. digital music, books and documents not only easier to transport — they are also easy to save.Technology allows you to convert a physical possessions, bits and bytes: scan the paperwork, convert, MP3 CD and buy electronic books instead of on paper.
Live on the edge of the. Light a supporter of his needs, such as they arise;If he runs out of toothpaste in Tokyo, he simply buy more.To adopt similar philosophy at home: instead of status "only cases" or the storage of goods, obtain, where appropriate, on the basis of things.
In addition to the relief of your own load, it will also help to step that you made to lighten.Time travel, such as is not fun, plodding through on a daily basis, you have to be taken into account when verifying an itinerary of the use of or inability to what can go wrong disturbing.Is considerably more pleasant words-old Chinese poem, "drift nets such as clouds, and as the water to drain to within."
Some of the very life through en route to the tips:
Turn slow train.Using your own days instead of Speeding slow down and savor every moment — we only take this fabulous journey time.I don't know about you, but I am certainly not in a hurry to reach the destination.
See out the window. too often we are approaching our lives tunnel vision — focused only on the way forward, our foot, instead of the accelerator with. give up and enjoy the ride on the bike;Find and take the beautiful scenery.
Ditch route. Objectives, plans and schedules will be carried out much häslinkiä. but a good traveller to tell you that magic happens when you let go, take the reins and let things Be poorly on its own initiative., as it appears on a daily basis and be surprised and happy to be able to indicate what.
Take into account the other passengers. you are not alone;This matkallaoltava considerate travel companions I smile, it is polite to. [1] [2] and to respect your privacy and will not be a buddy status. [1] [2], that nobody wants to sit next to.
Flow to go. all along the route is smooth, and each connection schedule. do not despair, if your plans include pieces; be fluid and welcome to detour might be possibilities.
When we approached life, such as the wayfarers, we realize that "more" is not necessarily the better — and in fact can be a downright burdensome. (I) you have never known any supporter of envy of his neighbor is how much baggage.
"Smaller," on the other hand, can be completely liberating — and to make for easier, more exciting and incredibly much interesting journey!
