    I think for me minimalism is really just about taking control of your life. Sometimes I feel like I own so much stuff that I almost get stressed thinking about it.
    I guess what I'm trying to say is that I think it's helps with mental clarity as much as it does physically.

    As someone who’s been a minimalist since 2011, the idea of minimalism changes as you grow. It started with getting rid of many things to clear my depressed mind but now it’s become truly about intention and purpose with everyone (that’s right even the people in your life) and everything that’s a part of my life.

    The personal growth really is amazing and it truely opened my mind and eyes to the world around us. People own a house full of stuff but feel bored, fed up. If u select the right things to spark joy or assist your life. Then home feels much more positive x

    الأديان السماوية الثلاثة ... عنوان خطأ،هذا ما أفادني به أحد الإخوة الدارسين و المتخصصين في العقيدة و جزاه الله خير. //منقول
    اليهودية والنصرانية شرائع وليست أديان
    معلومة رائعة عن ديننا الإسلامي أغلبنا يجهلها فتعرفوا عليها وعرفوا الأخرين بها
    الأديان السماوية الثلاثة
    لأول مرة أستوعب أن هذهِ المقولة خطأ عندما درست العقيدة الصحيحة
    لايوجد شيء أسمه الأديان السماوية الثلاثة
    قال الله تعالى
    {إِنَّ الدِّينَ عِندَ اللَّهِ الْإِسْلَامُ}[19آل عمران 19]
    إذاً ماهي اليهودية والنصرانية؟
    أولاً كتبهم اسمها التوراة والإنجيل
    وهي "شرائع وكتب سماوية وليس ديانات والدين واحد فقط وهو الإسلام"
    قال الله تعالى
    ﴿لِكُلٍّ جَعَلْنَا مِنْكُمْ شِرْعَةً وَمِنْهَاجًا﴾[48المائدة]
    فالشرائع تختلف حيث أن كل شريعة تختلف عن الأخرى في الحرام والحلال ولكن الدين واحد
    فكل الأنبياء والرسل دينهم واحد وهو الإسلام
    أما الإدعاء بأن اليهودية والنصرانية ديانة
    فاليهود والنصاري هم الذين سموا أنفسهم بذلك ولم يسمهم الله سبحانه وتعالى نصارى أو يهوداً
    قال الله تعالى
    {وَمِنَ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا إِنَّا نَصَارَىٰ}[14 المائدة]
    {وَقَالُوا كُونُوا هُودًا أَوْ نَصَارَىٰ تَهْتَدُوا}[135البقرة]
    فهم الذين قالوا على أنفسهم
    ولكن كل الأنبياء
    والرسل قالوا إنا مسلمون
    حتى
    فرعون قال حين أدركه الغرق
    {قَالَ آمَنتُ أَنَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا الَّذِي آمَنَتْ بِهِ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ وَأَنَا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ}[90يونس]
    فلماذا لم يقل وأنا من اليهود؟
    وهذه الآيات التي تدل على أن الدين واحد وهو الإسلام وليس ثلاث ديانات
    قال نبي الله نوح عليه السلام
    {فَإِن تَوَلَّيْتُمْ فَمَا سَأَلْتُكُم مِّنْ أَجْرٍ ۖ إِنْ أَجْرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَى اللَّهِ ۖ وَأُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ}[72يونس]
    وقال نبي الله إبراهيم عليه السلام لبنيه
    {وَوَصَّىٰ بِهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بَنِيهِ وَيَعْقُوبُ يَا بَنِيَّ إِنَّ اللَّهَ اصْطَفَىٰ لَكُمُ الدِّينَ فَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنتُم مُسْلِمُونَ}[132البقرة]

    {تَوَفَّنِي مُسْلِمًا وَأَلْحِقْنِي بِالصَّالِحِينَ} [101يوسف]
    وقال نبي الله موسى عليه السلام
    {وَقَالَ مُوسَىٰ يَا قَوْمِ إِن كُنتُمْ آمَنتُم بِاللَّهِ فَعَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلُوا إِن كُنتُم مُّسْلِمِينَ}[84يونس]
    وقال نبي الله عيسى عليه السلام
    {فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّ عِيسَىٰ مِنْهُمُ الْكُفْرَ قَالَ مَنْ أَنصَارِي إِلَى اللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ الْحَوَارِيُّونَ نَحْنُ أَنصَارُ اللَّهِ آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَاشْهَدْ بِأَنَّا مُسْلِمُونَ}[52آل عمران]
    وتأتي الآية الجامعة لكل الأنبياء وهم يقرّون بأنهم مسلمون
    {قُولُوا آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْنَا وَمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَىٰ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْقُوبَ وَالْأَسْبَاطِ وَمَا أُوتِيَ مُوسَىٰ وَعِيسَىٰ وَمَا أُوتِيَ النَّبِيُّونَ مِن رَّبِّهِمْ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِّنْهُمْ وَنَحْنُ لَهُ مُسْلِمُونَ}[136البقرة]
    وجاء خاتم النبيين والمرسلين سيدنا محمد صل الله عليه وسلم يحمل الشريعة الإسلامية التي تدعوا لدين الإسلام أيضا ولكن بمنهج مكمل لكل الشرائع
    فكل من آمن بالله وبكل نبي بعث فهو مسلم
    ويشهد أن لا إله إلا الله
    أي أنه مستسلم وخاضع لله وحده إلهآ واحداً لا شريك له.

    Because of Matt and minimalism, I've been wearing black t-shirts since 2019. My wardrobe has never been so simple and meaningful. People around me even started noticing and I became known as the person who always wears black haha!
    From my experience, minimalist fashion stands out just as much as the most flamboyant apparel!

    The stuff that a minimalist owns, actually the stuff that an optimized minimalist owns, from my perspective is similar to the tools of the trade that a doctor or a lawyer or a diesel engine mechanic or a RUclipsr would have. Those tools look different from person to person. Work tools an attorney needs is clearly different than the tools that a diesel engine mechanic would need. The needs of the job dictate the necessary tools. So, likewise, the needs of an optimized minimalist lifestyle dictate the possessions required.
    No, I am nowhere near being a minimalist, but it does interest me. I think what attracts me the most to it is the extra ability to manage my life, manage my time, free my mind of some of the unnecessary clutter in my head.

    As a wannabe minimalist (and borderline hoarder) I have spent some time in minimalist spaces online to try to shift my way of thinking towards minimalism. I find the opposite belief of myth #3 in those spaces to be prevalent. I find people frequently justify their clutter with the idea that "minimalism doesn't necessarily mean not having stuff" and "all minimalists are different". They seem to hold a concept of minimalism as being "have the amount of stuff that's right for you." I don't understand this. Minimalism does mean something. It's not a concept we each invent for ourselves. Not to say that it shouldn't look a little different from person to person, but at the base of it is this general idea of living with minimal amounts of stuff. On the other hand, how ridiculous to think that someone shouldn't keep the gear they need for their work. Minimalist or not, you need the tools of your trade!

    You said minimalism is about focusing on the things you truly love or use. But my question is what if you have tons of hobbies a Job you work long hours at. The regular daily chores grocery shopping car maintenance etc. And your head is spinning about how to do all these things in your life its not materialistic stuff. But how do you minimalize that kind of stuff. And you love all of those things and have to do others because its necessary. Does that make sense.

    This is really interesting, as I have lately been trying to pay more attention to what I buy and bring into my home - but I would never have considered that to be minimalism. I do a bunch of sewing and crafting hobbies, so my craft room is never going to look like a "minimalist space". That said, I am trying to think more about the craft bits I do buy - ones that I can get multiple use out of or only buying a few select things.

    I don't think decluttering the stuff you had as a child will make you happy.
    If I remember well, in one of your videos, you already mentioned this point, that you should keep an object if you're attached to it, if it brings you good feelings, memories, etc...
    In my case, in one of my drawers, i've got:
    -some figurines I used to play with,
    -a christmas glass (a glass I painted on, back at elementary school, in which you can put a candle),
    -an old multicolor boucing ball (whose colors are starting to fade away with time), that my parents gave me when we first moved to this house, and I was 6 (I'm 23 now, and still living here, but it's not the same as before).
    When I open this drawer, there is a weird smell that goes out. A smell of the past. A smell of magic.
    I open this drawer like, 1 time every year, but I feel so good when I do so. I feel like I went back in time. It helps me disconnect with this troubled world. It makes me remember of my old classmates, of my childhood friends, of me playing video games, playing with my dog, with my brother, with toys... not sleeping on the 24th of december and opening christmas gifts in the morning. At that time, my life was not perfect, but by now, it feels like it was.
    Next year, I'll move to another country, at the other side of europe. You can be pretty sure I'll take this drawer's content, my travel albums, my phone, my computer, some clothes, a pen, a notepad and some hygiene products. Nothing more.
    I don't know if I can be described as a minimalist. I don't know much about it, and I'm not trying to give myself a style or to change my life in any way by reducing the things I possess. I'm organized and I think having a clean home is the key to having a clear mind.
    I like to keep only what I need because useless stuff takes place for nothing, and having not a lot of stuff eases my departure.
    But sometimes, I keep some objects everybody could consider useless, but I see a soul in them. I think it's important, and you should not give up something that brings you joy and memories. I don't link wealth to hapiness. I saved a lot of money by working countless hours, but I'm not happy as I don't have enough free time. I have no outside activites, no friends, no girlfriend. I don't have the time/opportunity to travel. Don't even have time and energy for sport. Buying the latest car won't make me happy. I prefer to be paid less, to live in a beautiful country, to do a better job and to enjoy every moment, as happiness lies in moments, not goods (unless the memory of a moment is attached to them). I want to be happy and to fully live my life. Not to possess everything I want.
