Here’s a basic fact of human psychology everyone should know: You have no direct control over your emotions.
Minimalism isn’t about depriving yourself of comfort. It’s not about having a poverty mindset. It’s about removing distractions from your life. Having fewer wants can greatly uncomplicate your life.
By true self, I don’t mean we should say whatever comes to mind or do whatever we want. That isn’t deep enough. It’s about finding the part of ourselves that is peace, love, and wisdom.
