Leaving the startup gives me a little time to get to a couple projects that have been nagging at my mind. One of them is a purge of unnecessary “stuff” around the house.
One of my favorite blogs puts it very nicely…
How to Simplify When You Love Your Stuff | zen habits:
Apply mindful purging to your current lifestyle and belongings, as well as thoughtful consideration to your future purchases. Carefully examine your motivations for keeping possessions or buying new things. Once you allow things serve your soul, rather than you being a slave to your things, your life will evolve into an artful harmony between what you have and who you are.”
I find this particularly helpful when I’m in transition. It’s an opportunity to refocus, and to affirm what’s most important.
