“Stuff Editing” – Are you doing it?

less-is-more

A few nights ago I watched a great TED Talk by Graham Hill titled ‘Less Stuff, More Happiness’. He spoke about ‘editing’ your life to make room for the good stuff.

Graham relates it largely to possessions and living space. In it he’s sitting on a box and tells his audience although he has no idea what’s in it he’s moved it from house to house for years… I’m sure you can relate to that. I know I can. I still have university essays, a box full of gift cards dating since forever, and a bag of old dresses that my grandma gave me. They don’t fit me but I just can’t bear to get rid of them…

Thanks in advance for making the journey. 🙂

Ah well, I'm a writer... of self indulgent memoir, travel and for business. I love a good flick... From thought provoking art house to silly, crass humour. I get up every (well most) mornings and get stuck in to my daily yoga practice. I am honoured to be the mother of two pretty amazing little humans, and suffer tons of guilt wondering if I'm doing it right. I love to get dirt under my nails in the garden... I'm particularly in love with succulents for their otherworldly hardiness, crepe myrtles are my eye candy and gardenias smell so delicious I want to eat them. I also love to travel, but this year I feel more of a pull to stay put, which is new.
