Great ideas Robert. I frequently think of simplifying in terms of cleaning out a closet. It may take a little effort, you might have to rearrange some things and possibly even get rid of a few, but once it’s clean you’ll feel great. Taking the time up front to assess your life situation is a wonderful way to ensure that you will live a less cluttered life in the future.

Take care,

Guy

Hi Robert,

I don’t think there is no simple answer, but that’s the point. We think too much before instigating meaningful action. Thought is the product of knowledge, so maybe we should first stop accumalating superflous information which is probably not needed to live a simple life that is filled with clarity.

Other than the necessary knowledge to do our jobs and other tivial things in life, I feel self-knowledge is the key to improving our minds towards living a more wiser and happier life.

@Jason Good stuff. You write “Emptying your mind helps develop clarity, common sense and insight.” What is your advice on how to best “empty your mind?”

Some wise advice there, robert.

Why people wish to overcomplicate their lives is beyond me.

That is why I am a firm advocate of the wisdom of living simply, something which in the long run gives you more time to do the important things you love in life, as well as avoiding any self-imposed difficulties.

As I wrote in my following post; If one can live a simple life, one then can attain peace of mind – which I think is an important thing one should embrace (especially in today’s hectic lifestyle) if one is wanting a calm and stress free life.

Coming soon . . . a post titled “When You Should Break Up With Your Mother” about getting rid of the people in your life who are liabilities (sorry mom, it’s just the title I promise!)

@Lauren You are 100% right! By replacing liabilities with assets you will benefit from being more aligned with what you are best at doing and what you most enjoy doing, which should increase your satisfaction and happiness.

Interesting points here.

Right now, I’m having problems with the assets/liabilities in my business. What I’m doing is eliminating anything that doesn’t provide real value in my life. Then I’m going to get started on outsourcing the critical, but boring activities.

I think that the best way to get everything out of life is to spend as much time as possible doing the things that provide real value.
