Practicing minimalism makes life better and easier, by clearing away the distractions to focus on what is most important to each of us. Removing our attention from that which we do not want, and removing those factors from our presence, enhances our ability to focus on the aspects of our lives that we want to energize and grow.
Rather than giving our attention to consuming more material things, minimalism is a focusing tool to expand our lives in terms of experiences, creativity, health and relationships.
