Minimalism
I love to live minimally and only use what I need. Think about things that matter to me. Cutting out the noise and focusing on what's important to me. I love not keeping everything in my head and letting software and tools do the things they are good at. Storing and retrieving information. Events, todos, tasks and projects.
I try to focus on one task a time. Finished the task? Do the next one in the queue. Task too difficult? Slice it and break it down to smaller tasks I can work on. One by one. No extra thinking of whether I am doing the right thing right now or whether I should be focusing my time on something else. Full focus on the task at hand until it is done.
What I find important in life changes as I gain more experience but I always try to be mindful of how I spend my time and what do I actually need to live a fulfilling and happy life.
I list all the things I own in life. I make sure that it all fits into one backpack or extra bag so I can move to any place in the world with no effort.
I've found the easiest stuff to organize is the stuff I no longer have.
When we break our dependence on material objects, we naturally find no use for the things that we do not need. Only when we extinguish that need to own things can we call ourselves minimalists. Otherwise, we are just trying to impress. If there is struggle, then there is dysfunction.
So many people are just replacing their attachment and dependency with tangible objects into attachment and dependency with the "idea" of minimalism. It morphs into someone's entire identity. It's just trading one addiction with another.
