5 ways I simplified my life

Letting go of things I don’t use anymore

Recently I moved into a condo. This was a great opportunity for me to clean my clutter. I didn’t realized how many things I kept that I do not use on a regular basis. I let go of about 50% of my furniture, clothes, books, magazines that I had kept for over 20 years.

Drink water more often

Water is healthy, cheap, and simple.

Drive a fuel-efficient car

Not only is this safer for the environment, but also it costs less for me.

No longer have newspaper delivery

I would get the LA times weekly, but it was hard for me to keep up with reading. Or other times, I would want to save a certain article and then it would clutter. Instead I go online and read at my own leisure.

Costco runs

Instead of making multiple trips to the grocery store, I make less trips to warehouse stores like Costco. Certain non-perishable items such as paper towels, toilet paper, detergent are great to get both cost-wise and time-wise.
