This book is inspiring and motivational. I have learnt many new view points.... but most of all I have been reassured that others have a similar view to mine - not in all areas but most! I have some big decisions ahead and need o embrace the change. I now feel more at ease and also excited about the future.
Thanks Josh & Ryan

Interesting and inspiring book on minimalism. It changed they way I look at many things.

Insightful

the minimalists have some great content, but here the mumbling narrator destroys it. I'd suggest listening to their podcasts instead, they're significantly more engaging.

Really love this book, and started me on my minimalism journey. It’s helped me kickstart changing my life around without even realising.

I was struggling with mental health a lot last year and this helped not only in ‘minimising’ my possessions, but it’s helped me align my values and put things into perspective. I don’t throw things away wherever possible! I reuse, reduce, recycle first and try and only buy things I need or really want, instead of throwing things away when not needed or buy another if I accidentally forget it. Thank you!!! I really enjoy your podcasts too, please come to the UK!!

Great book, highly recommend

I recommend this book to anyone that would like to take a path in a valuable direction. I chose to listen to this book after watching the minimalists documentary on Netflix and after regularly listening to their podcasts. They have guided me to find a new lease of life and it has been interesting to follow their journeys and listen to their advice and ideas. You don’t need to be a minimalist to enjoy this book but it’s even better if you prefer a minimalist lifestyle or if you are interested in leading a minimalist lifestyle. The narrating is too fast for my own taste, so I have the speed slightly slower and it sounds great, relaxing and interesting. Enjoy!
