In today’s modern world, many of us own alot more stuff than we really need. By owning less stuff we can improve our mental health, financial well-being and our relationships with others. Here are the top benefits of owning less stuff.
- More focus on quality over quantity.
So I’m sure most of you can see the logic if you buy quality things they will most likely last longer so in the long run you save money. - More time & More freedom.
Since you have less stuff there’s less to clean and care for. Therefore, you have more time for yourself to do the things you’d rather do than clean. - Easier to look after & ready for Visitors.
You can welcome drop-in visitors without a worry as you have less stuff so it’s easier to keep your home looking neat and tidy - Increases productivity and efficiency.
With less stuff in your home, it becomes easier to find things so our productivity increases and we work more efficiently instead of wasting time all day looking for things amid a load of clutter - Live in a smaller house and/or have more space.
With fewer belongings, you could choose to live in a smaller house that would also help you save money on bills. Or you might just choose to stay in your larger home but with so much more space. Great for families with children or those with lots of friends and family dropping in. - Set a great example for your children and encourage gratitude.
Speaking of families with children imagine how this impacts them. They can learn to appreciate the things they do have. They will also learn from your example that owning alot of possessions isn’t what creates happiness. - Start living in the present.
With less stuff to look after and more space around you, it will be possible to clear your head and live in the NOW. You can also stop comparing yourself with those around you and stop worrying about keeping up with current trends - Better for the environment.
Buying less and owning less means less junk going into landfills. No more cheap, flimsy products that don’t last. - Less Stress, more peace,
Your mental health will improve as you live intentionally. You’ll feel less stressed out and will be overall happier.
So what’s stopping you? Look around you where you are now (assuming you are home) and choose something you can throw out that you won’t miss. Have you ever done a household declutter? How did that feel? Let’s chat in the comments.
