Less is More: The Simplicity Secret

In these commercialized times we are often fooled, by ourselves with the help of others, into believing that having more things will satisfy us and eventually lead to happiness. This of course is not true. Satisfaction actually lies in freeing ourselves from servitude to the material. This does not imply that we don’t need and cannot appreciate material things or that we should become ascetics eschewing all material possessions including books, music and art. Albert Einstein suggested that things should be made as simple as necessary and no simpler. This applies to life as well. And, while what is sufficiently simple for one may not be for another, everyone can benefit from carefully evaluating that which consumes their time and energy. The question we should be regularly asking ourselves is: ‘Is this making my life better, or not?’ This small book will help you to answer that question for yourself.
