The lifestyle trend of minimalism has been around longer than the name for it. It has only come to recent prominence in regards to its contrast against modern consumerism. A lot of people appear to be joining the trend, but an important question everyone needs to ask themselves is one thing.
Why do you want to become a minimalist?
I’m doing it for financial and creative freedom. By having a low-income lifestyle I do not need to spend all my time at a job. And by not being at a job, I can be somewhere else, like my computer, writing my stories 🙂 Being all like, look at what I am creating!!!! Mawhahah 🙂
