New 200 Items! 33 to 62
It has been too long. The MBA has stolen my life, but I am determined to try and get it back a little bit. First up, bringing the tale of the on-going minimalism challenge up to date…
I Sit on A Throne of Lies
You all know I’ve tried really hard at this minimalism thing right….
New 200 Items! Items 1 to 33
I’ve kicked off a fresh 200 items list to keep the focus on the minimalist vibes!
2 – Hermes Cards/Flat ’12
In early 2012 I bought my first (and currently only) flat. Given that it was an empty flat and I was in rented accommodation it took a ridiculously long time, so by April I was desperate to move in… the day I was due to exchange I had a crazy afternoon with expensive scarves!
The Last 100 Items!
I have successfully removed another 100 items from my life, and made some nice steps towards dealing with some trickier emotional issues in relation to collecting and holding onto things unnecessarily. Although it took a long time, I’m really glad I persevered; I feel like I have got my mojo back with minimalism (I started listening to The Minimalists podcast recently which has helped as well). And so for a quick summary…
New 100 Items! 78 to 100 – DONE!
OMG I have been so behind on doing everything recently…. my big project at work completed, and it took up so much time and effort that I had just enough focus for that, keeping myself and the boyf fed and getting sleep and occasionally tidying the flat and that as it. But on a positive note I also finally rented the back room to a lovely lady called Sarah and her even more adorable cat Millie! But now I’m back and getting this blog going again!
New 100 Items! 57 to 64
A small exercise in tidying up my getting ready area led me to two big realisations on my minimalist adventures…
New 100 Items! 37 to 56
So far the 100 items list is moving very slowly… but not for the reasons you’d expect. When I started the lists, I diligently recorded every item I threw away. Not because I was being extremely organised, but because it was the only way I could get rid of items; in the back of my mind if I had listed and photographed them, it was OK to remove. Otherwise, no way. But now… it’s reached a stage of kind of “meh, bin it”. Although I definitely still have some emotional attachment to items, I feel like there has been a subtle diminishing over time.
New 100 Items! 36 to 42
I have been SO busy recently with an exciting new venture, so I have been completely neglecting my personal minimalism vibes. However things have died down a lot so I am setting myself a target to post each day this week to get up to date on what I have been doing and hopefully kick start some focus for myself again!
