There are two types of people in the world: those who are lost and those who know they’re lost.

The moment I felt I belonged to the second group was magical. It meant I could start doing something about it.

My Exploration of Essentialism

Hearing of Essentialism was a true breakthrough moment for me.

As I recently resigned from my job and took a leap of faith, life is currently completely built upon my own decisions. Some days are great, others I feel steerless and aimless.

Coming across Essentialism was exactly the mental framework I was so desperately searching for. Funny to see how such things end up on your path by accident.

I switched from anxiously aiming for focus in life to a situation where I identified the essential things to do.

Knowing that I’m lost sometimes gave me — funny enough — clarity.

Essentialism is doing more of the right things and not just doing more things.

View your life as a wardrobe — buy too many mediocre things and you’ve got yourself a full closet. This leaves no space for the most important pieces…
