MAXIMS
There are no refunds for misspent time.
Discontent arises when our values are misaligned with our actions.
Our devices become distractions when they aren’t used deliberately.
What if your weakness is actually your superpower?
Unlearning is just as important as learning.
Just as forced commitment is not an indication of devotion, and forced restraint is not a marker of self-discipline, forced simplicity is not a demonstration of minimalism.
When you make minimalism all or nothing, it’s all for nothing.
Living simply involves intention, not deprivation.
