How to become a minimalist

Now that you know what minimalism means, check hour FIVE simple and easy steps to start living a minimalist lifestyle!

1. Stop bringing new things to your house

Most of us when we bring something into our homes, then we forget about it. We think that it may be useful someday and once we decide to clean out forgotten closed we discover that we have all sorts of things that we never used and most probably we will never do.

It's important to realize that we have enough and that if we ever need something that we will only use once, we can always rent it instead of buying it. 

Soon, you will start to have more space in your house and also save a lot of money. 

2. Use it or lose it

Remember that minimalism is all about using less and keeping what we need, that's why we need to get rid of anything that we don't use.

Start with cleaning your dressing room, and you will come across many items that you have used a year or two ago, but you haven’t used it recently. These are the things that you need to give away to someone who really needs them and will surely use them more often than you do. 

If you having used that T-shirt at least twice this summer, it means that it's unnecessary and that you have too much.

Minimalism is a wild mindset, it may not be accepted by everyone, especially those who care about the appearance and adore fashion. That's why you need to be ready for critics and prejudgements.

And remember, keep only what you need now, not what you think you’ll need in the future.

3. Organize items by category

To be a minimalist you need to learn how to be organized. One of the best organizational skills is to arrange your stuff by categorizing them. You may use colors, material, or size...

Some people prefer to organize their clothes by color. In this scenario, everything in their dressing rooms and closets gets organized, and according to their mood, they can simply pick the color they want.

Organizing your stuff by categories instead of location allows you to easily get rid of the duplicates. You’ll see exactly how many socks, pair of jeans, spoons, and mugs you have. Then it will be easier for you to make the decisions about what to keep and what to lose.
