Simplify #3
If you lose sight of the purpose for anything, it can quickly become unnecessarily complicated. Establishing the purpose for your time, energy and possessions leads you back to simplicity.
When you know why you are doing what you are doing, you live a meaningful life. This usually increases your sense of happiness.
So, how could you find the best purpose for…
The food you eat
The exercise and movement you do
The spiritual practices you engage
Your finances
Your work
Your relationships
Your time
Your posessions
Your leisure activities
Your service in the world
If you can define a simple purpose for these and lean into it, you may find that the clouds begin to part and light shines on your path.
Worth Repeating
Identify the essential. Eliminate the rest.
-Leo Babauta
