MAXIMS

One person’s essentials are another person’s junk.

Hoarding is childish; letting go is a sign of maturity.

A habit becomes a habit only if the benefits are clear and compelling.

Ideas become clutter when they are uncoupled from the desire to take action.

Embarrassment is a sign that something is wrong with either your actions or the story you’ve been told about those actions.

Minimalism is a mindset, not a product.

Life-living is more rewarding than life-style.

Letting go isn’t only free—it’s freedom.

I would recommend reading Your Three Year Old to callers. You can buy it on Amazon. It will explain to you what is developmentally appropriate and I believe three-year-olds are still self identifying with objects.
