After going from an extreme consumerist, owning three wardrobes, to an extreme minimalist, fitting everything I own to a backpack, I realized how relative these terms are. I noticed how often we confuse "needs" with "wants" and in order to feel enough, we think we have to have enough.

- Learn why and how to declutter
- Realize how to apply minimalism in your everyday life
