About the Author

Sasaki Mori, editor / minimalist. He graduated from Waseda University with a major in education and currently works at wanibooks. In 2010, I began to discard the items around me. In 2014, we launched the “Minimal&ismlessisfuture” website together with the creative editor-in-law and the tree planting. This book is its first book.

brief introduction

Jobs once said: "Your time is limited, please do not live for others." Similarly, your time is limited, please do not live for the sundries. We no longer need items to fill our lives. The 36-year-old author was once plagued by cumbersome life. However, after he came into contact with "minimalism," he began to have a new understanding of life and redefine the "happiness" that everyone longed for. He said: "I have few things, but I am happy every day."

The "happy template" established by modern society tells us that the future is full of unknowns, so we must have it now to be happy. However, the ideas promoted in this book are quite different. This book introduces a minimalist lifestyle. The author explains to readers why we need to advocate a minimalist lifestyle and introduces the cheats of a minimalist lifestyle and the life of a minimalist lifestyle. Positive changes have conveyed the idea of ​​simple happiness through simple life.

By reducing the number of items, the amount of time available will increase, regaining the time occupied by the items, and throwing away unnecessary debris, so that we have plenty of time to build a blueprint for a happy life.

What is a minimalist

How is the minimalist defined? Maybe you will think that the person who minimizes the things around you is a minimalist, but how little is it to be "less"?

In fact, the definition of minimalism is not restrictive. In daily life, we take our freedom to exchange unnecessary debris. However, the value of people does not lie in the number of items they own. Matter can only provide us with fleeting happiness, and often unnecessary debris will take energy and time from us. The first to realize this truth is the minimalist.

That is to say, people who really understand what they need; those who reduce the number of items for the most important life goals. It can be defined as a minimalist.

Reasons for becoming a minimalist:

Everyone who becomes a minimalist has a different experience. Some people are missing their lives because they see their loved ones because of their desires. Some people, though they have money, have many items but are still unsatisfied; some people gradually reduce the number of items they own because they have moved many times.

In either case, there are always a lot of things around you before you become a minimalist. When you can't make up your mind, you can't discard the extra items because you can't discard them. More and more items are hoarded, and the energy and time of the users are constantly captured and consumed. Ultimately, these items will crush the users. Even so, users will greedily want something they don't have, and they fall into a vicious circle. The user's spirit and happiness are unwittingly lost by these extra items, resulting in some negative emotions, complaints or feelings of misfortune, so why not try to reduce the items and bravely take the first step.

Why are the items around me so widespread?

From habit to tiredness

The reason why people feel unsatisfied is that they will gradually "habit" after realizing their wishes. Over time, "habits" gradually became "taken for granted." Finally, I feel "tired" about what I take for granted. I used to buy a lot of clothes insanely. After a long time, I feel old-fashioned. I can’t help but start complaining that “there is no clothes to wear. For the work that has been motivated, I can’t find fun.

In fact, the reason why people "habit" is because the human neural network can receive the stimulus of "difference" caused by certain stimuli becoming other stimuli.

Getting used to and getting tired of the things you own can make people feel less irritated. Because the neural network does not perceive "difference" with something that is immutable. In order to create a "difference", the stimulus can only be eliminated, altered, increased or amplified. To be analogous to matter, it is necessary to create “differences” by redeeming new commodities (changing stimulus), increasing quantity (increasing the amount of stimulus), and increasing value (magnifying the stimulus).

2. Price is not proportional to joy

If the function of the item is proportional to the price, the car with 2 times the price can reach the destination 2 times ahead of time, and the down jacket with 2 times price can bring 2 times the warmth, then we can exchange money and material for happiness. It is regrettable that this is not the case.

Therefore, the sense of well-being and satisfaction after obtaining the item will not continue to increase due to the growth of the item, and the degree of happiness will not be enlarged.

3. People's behavior is to achieve self-worth

People are social animals that live in groups. In order to survive in society, they need to “show value” to groups and society, and show “self-worth” through the identity of others.

And it happens to be able to quickly express self-worth through items, such as wearing, rock and roll to express free and unrestrained character; through natural style to express gentle and calm character; through alternative fashion to express unique taste; even for clothes Matching people who are indifferent will also exude the self-worth that I don't care about.

Start with the reduction:

It doesn't take much time to abandon itself, but it takes time to make up your belongings. 61T9VrslwZL

There are several kinds of items that are reluctant to throw away: they can't be used, they can be used, and they can still be used. When you want to lose it, you will always feel wasted, and your heart will feel guilty. The mood is being tortured and constantly consuming the inner energy.

If you are worried about whether you want to abandon an item or want to buy something, ask yourself if the item is "necessary", and you will almost have your own judgment. Well-known monk Koike Takanosuke once said that when you feel your pain when you touch your chest and ask yourself this question, it means that these items are "unnecessary" to you. The reason why I feel "pain" is because I already have enough items, I am still unsatisfied, or I am tortured by the guilt of my heart.

The reason for giving up is also very simple. While touching the item, ask yourself: Is this item expensive? Is it because of the inexplicable sense of guilt? Is it because of the inability to make the best use of the conscience? Is it because I feel sorry for sending something to myself? Is it because you feel lost when you throw away items? Is it because things are still very new? Or just feel that it is troublesome to abandon items?

Now you can try to pick up an item at hand and try to ask yourself, I believe you will get an answer.

I am changing after reading the entire book:

Life aspect

I will ask myself repeatedly before buying an item. Do you really need it? Whether it is just to satisfy your own desire for shopping, or for a short and limited sense of freshness and joy. After the imaginary items are handed, can they have a substantial effect in my life and improve the quality of life. If the answer is yes, I will place an order. If the answer is no, cancel the purchase. According to this method, the gratifying result is that I saved about 1,000 yuan for myself in half a month.

In terms of clothing, I am not thinking about the style of clothes and trying to match. At present, the clothes are basically unified into blue hoodies, jeans, and adobe tooling shoes. I have saved a lot of time and energy from considering matching and online shopping. Maybe others will feel monotonous when watching, but because they are wearing their favorite color and style clothes, they are often filled with satisfaction.

2. Professional and work aspects

When it comes to minimalism, "less is more" is a sentence that many people know. As a designer, at first contact with minimalism, the understanding of "less" is to reduce the picture elements as much as possible, so that it looks like "empty" or "white". Doing subtraction blindly, and neglecting, why do subtraction.

By reading this book, I have a new understanding of minimalism: "Minimalism, not the less the goods, the better. But after leaving, what is left is the most important to you, really understand What do you need?" Apply to the design of the picture, while doing subtraction, you can ask yourself, what is the meaning of each element in the picture, if you simply meet the visual beauty, but can not add points to the picture itself, you can consider it Whether it still exists. The original form of the original research is not able to help the design ability to grow, and explore the essence of it to effectively test the progress.

3. Psychological aspects:

Start to pay more attention to and care about your psychological feelings. Price is not proportional to joy, and joy does not increase because of the price of the item. E-commerce always induces us to embark on a "no return" to buy and buy, and most people are happy to meet their material desires. The joy of swiping the card and the guilt of repayment, I believe that it is not just me who have such a contradictory experience.

When you purchase an item, combined with your own knowledge, you can probably know whether you are needing the functionality of the item, or whether you are pleasing yourself and satisfying the simple material desire. After thinking clearly, there will be no negative emotions like "repentance." Instead, there will be a small amount of luck brought about by self-discipline.

In the process of breaking off, constantly reviewing each piece of existing items, and knowing which items are consuming their own energy and which items are really helpful to life, will be clear and clear. There is no need to limit the problem of whether the item needs to be discarded. After a clear combing, the psychological total is always much faster.

end

"I decided to live simply - from break to minimalism" is an interesting and practical book. The life that has been broken off has brought me simple and positive energy. If you are tired of a messy house or life at this time, you may wish to read this book, I believe it will bring you a different state!

AlNiCo material is comprised of aluminum,nickel,cobalt and iron with varying additions of other elements.There are two different manufacturing processes for AlNiCo:Cast and sintered.Cast AlNiCo can be made into many sizes and shapes,whereas Sintered AlNiCo is usually restricted to smaller sizes.However,both processes lead themselves to complex geometries and configurations.Standard Sintered AlNiCo has tighter dimensional tolerances due to its processing.It also has slighty lower magnetic properties,but better mechanical strength than Cast AlNiCo products.
