Goodbye things fumio sasaki pdf

Goodbye, Fumio Sasakin's affairs are fresh air. It opened my eyes to the universal nature of minimalism and Japanese culture. And it was written by someone who is not a well-known writer, speaker, simple top living leader or Zen Buddhist teacher like Haemin Sunim. Fumio Sasaki is 35 years old, male, single, Japanese and lives in Tokyo. He claims: I haven't accomplished much yet, and I can't be proud
of anything, at least not at this point in my life. Yet he says minimalism opened his mind and life to happiness he has never experienced before. I like this book because he's just like any of us. An ordinary person trying to figure things out in the world. While it seems he has a slight obsession with Steve Jobs/Apple and some of his examples show the extremes of how minimalism can manifest itself (radical
minimalism), I still took a lot of positives from this book. Fumio has apparently studied the subject of minimalism in depth and implemented it in his lifestyle. He introduced me to a new minimalist terminology that I am interested in exploring further: minimalism of color, minimalism of knowledge (although perhaps this is only another term for preventing closing fatigue) and LOHAS (lifestyles of health and
sustainability). When you think about it, there is not a single person born into this world holding in his hands some material property. — Fumio Sasaki Quick Summary of goodbyes, things: Fumio Sasaki's new Japanese minimalism Is a good chance to get less. That's why it's time to say goodbye to all our extra things. It is a minimal version of the message that I would like to convey in this book. It's also
partly the reason I wrote this book. Although that's not my only motivation, I want to prove to myself that my existence has some kind of value. He divides part of the book into the following sections: 55 tips to help you say goodbye; 15 more tips for the next stage of your minimalist journey; 12 ways I've changed since I said goodbye to fumio sasak's definition of minimalism: In this book, I've defined
minimalism (1) to reduce the necessary items to a minimum and (2) eliminate excess so that we can focus on things that are really important to us. People who live like that are the ones I consider minimalists. Minimalism is a way of life where you reduce your fortune as far as you need. Minimalism - reducing goods to minimal essentials only. My definition of a minimalist is someone who knows what is
really necessary for themselves, who reduces the amount of their fortune because of the things that really matter to them. Old version of itself (pre-minimalism): I always compared myself to other people who had more or better things, which often made me unhappy. I didn't know how to make things better. I couldn't focus on anything, and I've always timed. I even started to regret the work I'd wanted so
badly. Alcohol was my escape, and I don't treat women fairly. I wasn't trying to change. I thought all this was just part of who I was, and I deserved to be unhappy. The excuses were endless, the thoughts in my mind were negative. I was stuck in that mindset, and yet, because of my useless pride, I was too afraid that I would not take any action to change things. And as my stuff began to take up more and
more space, I began to drown in them, extinct all my energy on my objects while hating myself for not being able to use them all well. No matter how much I accumulated, my attention was still drawn to things I didn't have. I got jealous of other people. Even then, I couldn't throw anything away, so I stayed around and went around the self-disgust. All the things I didn't have stood between me and my good
health. That's how my mind used to work. Why do we own so much stuff? Lifestyle inflation, keeping up with the Joneses or something else? Why do we own so many things when we don't need them? What's their purpose? I think the answer is quite clear: we are desperate to pass on our own values, our own values, to others. We use artifacts to tell people how valuable we are. The more we accumulate
and the harder we build a collection that communicates our properties, the more our property itself begins to become the qualities we embrace. In other words, what we own corresponds to who we are. Our goal is to increase our property because it is equivalent to increasing our self-image. As a result, we spend a huge amount of time and energy maintaining and managing all these accumulated objects.
When we consider these things to be in keeping with our own qualities and start believing that they really are us, our number one goal is to maintain and manage them. Our property should be our tool. They were used for such purposes in the Stone Age. Over time, our world became abundant, and artifacts began to be used for another purpose: to be able to abot our own value. All these things will
eventually turn against us; We become slaves to our goods, forced to spend time and energy caring for them. We're losing ourselves to our property. Our tools will be our champions. There is a way out of an endless build-up: for me, it was an existential crisis. Everyone started a minimalist. Our value is not the sum of our goods. Property can only make us happy for short periods of time. Unnecessary
material objects absorb our time, energy and freedom. I think the minimalists are starting to understand that. When we practice minimalism, we spend less time disrupting the media or ads because we find that we already have everything we need. And we feel like this, we can easily ignore most of these messages that are yelling at us. When you become a minimalist, you free yourself from all the
materialistic message that surrounds us. Not all creative marketing and annoying ads affect you anymore. Celebrities don't make you feel jealous anymore. Great window displays, reward cards, spiffy new high-spectrum products, new high-end apartments under construction - none of it has anything to do with you, and you can walk around town comfortably and free of charge. New version of itself (post-
minimalism): I went from messy maximism to life as a minimalist. I said goodbye to almost everything I did and to my surprise I noticed that I had also changed myself. Now that I'm out of my possessions, I'm no longer comparing myself to anyone. I was always embarrassed when I compared my unhappy apartment to someone else's. Or I'd see an acquaintance buy everything he wants and envy. But now
I've been able to say goodbye to that old me because I've stopped taking part in that rat race where you compare and accumulate the end. Since the days of my old messy apartment, I think I've reduced my fortune to about 5% of what I used to own. That's 950,1,000 items. And you know what? There really isn't a single item I miss. Since I minimized my possessions, there's been a drastic change in my
everyday life. I come home from work to take a bath. I always leave the sparkling wine in the water. I finish my bath and change into my favorite outfit for relaxing at home. Because I got rid of my TV, I read a book or write a book instead. I don't drink alone anymore. I go to bed after spending my time stretching exercises, using a space that used to be full of all my stuff. I'm getting up now at sunrise, and I
don't have to trust my alarm clock anymore. When the material objects are gone, the glorious rays of the morning sun are reflected against the white wallpaper and brighten the apartment. The mere act of getting up in the morning, which had been a difficult thing for me in the past, has now become a pleasant routine. I put my futon place away. I take the time to enjoy my breakfast and enjoy the espresso I
made on my Macchinetta, always cleaning breakfast dishes immediately after my meal. I sit down and meditate to help clear my mind. I vacuum my apartment every day. I'll do the laundry if the weather's good. I put on clothes that have been folded neatly and I leave the apartment on a feel-good evening. I now enjoy going the same route to work every day – it allows me to appreciate the changes of four
seasons. How he buys things now: Passionately chosen object represents perfection for us... Our lives are better when our things awaken our passions. As long as we stay dedicated to things we really love, we probably don't want any more. The features I look for in the things I buy are (l) the product is minimalist, and it's easy (2) its colour is not too hard; (3) I can use it for a long time; (4) it has a simple
structure; (5) it is lightweight and compact; and (6) has several uses. What's important to you? What's your purpose? The things that are important to you vary. The reduction of other items will also vary. Reducing the amount of property is not an objective for itself. I think minimalism is a way for individuals to find things that are genuinely important to them. It's a prologue to making your own unique story.
When you think about it, the experience builds our unique properties, not material items. So maybe it's natural that we find our own originality when we remove all the things that bother us. And when you're a minimalist with only what you need, your focus inevitably shifts from others to yourself. By comparing your release, you're going to start figuring out who you really are. It's about happiness, joy and
satisfaction: I can't believe how my life has changed. I got rid of my fortune, and I'm really happy now. When I'm divorced most of my stuff, I feel real satisfaction with my daily life. Living brings me joy. Living as a minimalist with bare commodities has not only provided superficial benefits such as the enjoyment of a tidy room or the simple ease of cleaning, but it has also led to more fundamental change. It's
allowed me to think about what it really means to be happy. It may sound like I'm exaggerating. Someone once told me, You just threw things away, which is true. I haven't accomplished much yet, and I can't be proud of anything, at least not at this point in my life. But one thing I'm sure of is that when there are fewer things around, I've started to feel happier every day. I've slowly understood what goodness
is. After what I've been through, I think saying goodbye to things is more than tidying up. I think it's an exercise in thinking about true good. He also experiences some aspects of Slow Living: Do you want to start living slowly? When you become a minimalist, the operating energy also becomes minimal. You don't have to try to live in an environmentally friendly way – it comes naturally. By minimizing your
possessions and settling into a focused, simple life, you will find that the weight of your shoulders is lightened and you live in a way that is gentler to the environment. And you know what? It gives you a pretty good vibe. Since I don't own very much, I have the luxury of time. I can enjoy the simplicity of everyday life without feeling stressed or overwhelmed. That useless pride has disappeared, and since I'm
not self-conscious about appearance, I've been able to take the bold step of writing this book. You are not surrounded by all the things that usually bother you, the things that take so much of your attention. That's why you're traveling. often feels so nice. Put down your bags and step outside for a walk in the neighborhood. You feel light on your feet, like you can keep walking forever. You have the freedom
to go wherever you want. Time is on your side and you don't have the usual chores or work responsibilities that weigh you down. Calculate minimum cost of living: Similar to what you would do with Fire (Financial Independence Retire Early). There is an important concept called minimum living expenses that refers to the minimum amount of money you need to live on. I think it is worth everyone counting
this for themselves at least once by adding up rents, grocery, utilities, communication fees, and so on. As a result, I don't even have to worry about retirement anymore. I'm optimistic knowing I just have to earn 100,000 yen every month. Nowadays, there are many jobs where all you need is a network connection, so you can even live somewhere abroad where the minimum cost of living is even lower.
There is no point in doing terrible work or dying just to maintain living standards. When you have less and lower your minimum cost of living, you can go wherever you want. Minimalism can really be liberating. New lessons from Japanese culture: Before meals, a Buddhist song called Gokan no Ge or Five Reflections is recited. Japanese tea ceremony Danshari: The art of removing, abandoning and
abandoning your property (Note: I'm kind of surprised this didn't come up in marie kondo's life-changing magic of cleaning up...) For me, Zen and meditation have improved my state of mind so much that it's like reintalling my personal operating system. We were all born into this world as minimalists, but we Japanese used to live a minimalist life as well. Foreigners who came to Japan before we
industrialized were shocked. While it can be hard to imagine today, most people owned maybe two or three kimonos that were always kept fresh and clean, as their entire wardrobe. They packed light, their feet were strong and they could walk where they needed to. The homes were simple structures that could be quickly rebuilt, and people generally did not live in the same place throughout their lives.
Japanese culture used to be a minimalist culture. Japanese minimalists referred: It was an eye-opening experience to visit the blogs listed below. Although Google Translate isn't perfect, it gave me the outlines of different people. Minimalism is in many different tastes. Hiji was one of the first minimalist bloggers in Japan. Blog: Mono o motanai minimarisuto (a minimalist who doesn't own things)
minimarisuto.jp Ofumi and Tee say they were woken up to minimalism just as they were about to build a house. Minimarisuto biyori (great day for a minimalist) Okurete kita minimarisuto (Late minimalist) minimaltee.hateblo.jp Yamasan is a minimalist supermodel who lives with her And two kids.

monode sukkiri kurasu (Living simply with a few things) yamasan0521.hatenablog.com Kouta is a young minimalist adventurer who travels the world with her trusted MacBook Pro and creates music wherever she goes. minimalist music producer minimalist-music-producer.com References to other Smart People: Buddhist monk Ryunosuke Koike says she puts her hands against her chest when she's not
sure about the object, and feels uncomfortable if the target is me who trusts something she wants. This discomfort is symptomatic of dissatisfaction, the mistaken belief that something is missing from his life, even though he already has everything he needs. Author Daisuke Yosumi writes that stores should be considered our personal storage. All those stores pay good amounts of money to secure space so
they can store all sorts of goods for us, and they take care of their products carefully. Convenience stores welcome us around the clock. Yosumi suggests that we should not think of these places as shops where we buy goods, but as warehouses where we go to get something when we need it... Daisuke Yosumi wrote in one of her books about this concept. The more you like your property, the awareness
you become about brands and their backgrounds. It's a surprise to things we really appreciate. Aristotle believed (according to philosopher Will Durant) that 'We are what we do repeatedly. So excellence is not an act, it's an act. You don't need a strong desire to clean regularly and maintain a clean home. I've heard of indian teaching saying that when something has to be decided, they look seven
generations ahead, which seems to make a lot more sense. Wetiko is an Native American word that has literally been translated as 'man-eating', which refers to a mental disorder in which you want more than you need. Last thought If you got this far, I'll leave you an interesting thought experiment. One of the pictures in the book is japanese minimalist blogger Hiji. He sits in a room that is almost completely
empty (no TV), but he has a Sony head-mounted viewer watching his favorite shows. In my opinion, switching one thing to another issue, which still consumes the same amount of time, is not a victory. However, this is likely to happen in the future as well. Last year, Mark Zuckerberg said that at some point we will no longer have physical TVs and we will project a virtual screen on any wall we want through a
software app. Some futurists believe that by the 2040s, people will spend most of their time in perfect immersive virtual reality. In this future, you can imagine that many people are minimalists in physical More and more money is being channelled into virtual and augmented realities rather than the real world. But one thing doesn't change. Your time. You still get 24 hours a day. How are you? Use it? Have
