How Less Stuff Leads to a Bigger Life

Minimalism is a means to a bigger life, not a smaller one.

There are many misconceptions about minimalism—both from people on the outside of the movement and from some who are just beginning to pursue the lifestyle.

One such misconception is that minimalism is a means to check out of life or check out of society.

Many seem to assume the goal of minimalism is to sit on a beach somewhere for the rest of their days. But this is not the best way to view minimalism—at least not in my opinion.

In fact, when I wrote The More of Less, my only request of the publisher was to not include a picture of recliners of a beach on the cover. “Checking out of life is not what this book is about,” I repeatedly said to the designers.

Just the opposite.

Minimalism frees up our finite resources so we can pursue more important things in life than physical possessions. It frees up our money and our time, our energy and our focus. It brings intentionality into our life.

It frees us up to pursue our greatest passions and it frees us to pursue those things in life that bring real joy and real meaning and real significance and real fulfillment and real happiness.

And the place that we’re going to find the most meaning and fulfillment is in helping others, in serving others, in giving to others, and in being the best member of society that we can possibly be.

If you are just getting started on your journey to minimalism, please don’t see it as a way to check out of society and life.

Instead, see it as a way to live a bigger life—focused on others and focused on the things that actually matter.

Messy House? Maybe You Own Too Much

I work out of an office. Most days, it’s just me. However, from time to time, I host a few others.

For that reason, I keep a set of four coffee mugs around. I drink coffee most of the day when I’m alone. And if there’s a meeting happening, I’m certainly brewing a fresh pot for anyone who wants it.

Yesterday, I noticed something out of the ordinary, despite working alone all week, all four of the coffee mugs were out of the cabinet.

One was next to me with fresh coffee, two were dirty in the sink, and the fourth was sitting on the counter, next to the sink.

It has been a couple busy days—the first week of the Uncluttered Course always requires a significant amount of my energy. And we just started up this Tuesday. Because my days have been full, I’ve fallen into a common trap:

I didn’t need to wash my coffee mug because there was a clean one still in the cabinet, so I just left it out dirty.

We do this all the time.

When life is not busy, or my attention is not divided, it only takes a few short seconds to hand wash my coffee mug and put it away before I leave the office. So I often do.

But during this busy week, when my attention was divided, and there were other things on my agenda, it became too easy to leave the cleaning task undone—even though it would have only taken a few seconds.

This is how our excess possessions lead to a messy home. When we have more than we need, there is less incentive to clean up along the way. And when our attention is pulled from one thing to another, this excess gets left out all too often.

Much of the mess in our home is a result of having too much stuff.

Just think of the different ways this plays out in our homes:

• We leave dirty dishes in our sink because we can grab a new one from the cabinet.

• We don’t clean our pots and pans or spatulas because it’s easy to grab a different one.

• We leave out the blanket in the living room because there’s another one in the bedroom.

• Our dirty clothes piles grow taller and taller as long as there’s something clean to wear in the closet.

• Our kids leave their toys out, all over the house, because there’s always another one they haven’t played with yet.

• Rubber bands and pens and paper clips collect in our junk drawer—way more than we’ll ever use.

• Coats gather by the backdoor because everyone in the house is wearing a different one today.

• Books and magazines and newspapers pile up on our counter because there’s always a new one to read.

• Phone charger cords can be seen in every room of the house because there’s always another one in the room we are heading to.

• Our linen closet shelves fill up with towels and sheets because there are so many that rarely get used.

• And the list goes on and on: tools, board games, yarn, shoes, sporting equipment, DVDs, video game supplies, purses…

For me, in this specific scenario, it didn’t take long to wash and dry my coffee mugs and put them back where they belong—eliminating the small mess.

But in our homes, it’s a different story.

The average American home has over 300,000 items inside of it. That’s a whole lot of excess… and a lot of mess because of it.

If your house is messy all the time, maybe you’ve got too much stuff inside it. Owning less will help you keep it clean, among other benefits.

🤣 15 Hilariously Bad Video Conference Fails

Video conference gone wrong? Zoom meeting fails? You're not alone. Not in the least!

tv color bars at an angle
Photo by Tim Mossholder

Near the beginning of COVID-19, I began co-hosting a group video call series with other job search experts for job seekers to get quick answers to their burning questions.

I call these ‘JOSH chats', short for ‘JobMob job search online hangouts', and you can find them in the JobMob Job Search Events Calendar.

Some of these group video calls have been over Zoom but I've also begun streaming directly to YouTube Live, where the recording is immediately available for you after the chat is over.

The calls had all gone well until yesterday, when this happened:

It gives me a headache just to watch it.

Looks like I have an old 56K internet connection from the '90s! Maybe if you like Impressionism, but even then it's pretty bad.

Still, it could have been worse.

As so many people have flocked to video chats due to the pandemic, so many have had Zoom meetings gone wrong.

Here are some of the funniest and cringiest video conference fails I could find.

Enjoy, and be warned. It could happen to you too!


Join us for the next JOSH video chat with job search experts

Time: Tuesday, September 29th, at 8:00 PM Israel Standard Time (click here to check your local time)

Full event details in the JobMob Job Search Calendar


Video conference and Zoom call fails that will make you cringe

1) Distraction fail

It wasn’t really embarrassing (for me at least) , but just before COVID hit I had a job interview via Zoom. We have a small house, only one room that would qualify as being an office, which my lady was using to study at the time, so I placed my laptop in our games room in the basement, with our extensive board game collection (300+ titles) in the background. I didn’t even think about it. The interviewer was also a gamer (the job was not games industry related) and spent the first 45 minutes of our planned hour quizzing me on what my favourite games were, and how you can use game mechanics in a management role to keep people in line, and in task. I had to keep steering the conversation back to the job, performance expectations, and things that were relevant to, the job. After 90 minutes of nonsense I asked him to not follow up with me, as I can’t stand working for someone that can’t stay on task.

2) Pet fail

How am I supposed to work with this distraction?! )She just chimed in on my conference call.)

3) Frozen screen fail

My screen froze in a video conference yesterday and it made me look like I fell asleep during an editorial meeting. Which is funny I suppose.

4) Mute fail

Funny how a bunch of 8-year-olds having a video conference have the same issue with people talking without unmuting themselves as adults do.

Sometimes the opposite is the problem…

5) Mic fail

video conference meetings are always funny bc someone always forgets they have their mic on

6) Bystander fail

So I'm outside and Garrett decided it'd be funny to hurl pine cones in my direction while i'm in a video conference call and it scared me, I almost fell out of my chair lookin like a spazz.. my VP stops and said Adrienne are you ok...

7) Texting fail

My friend keeps sending me funny texts while we're both in the same video conference. and this is us trying not to laugh


Parody: A Conference Call in Real Life


8) Beer fail

Funny we just had a video conference and everyone had a Corona

9) Pyjama fail

Just got off video conference with my team. Almost everyone in my team are working from home too. It's simultaneously cool and funny to see everyone in their pajamas and having that I-just-woke-up look HAHAHAHAHA

10) Funny mom fail

Some people, working from home, are interrupted by their kids, their pets, and I have my mom. My mom walking in, in her pj's, during my video conference call, taking pics of me working from home, and showing me funny memes. My mom. I love her!

11) Yogurt fail

heard a funny story a guy working at home for the first time in his life having yogurt flung at him during a video conference with a client

12) Cereal fail

My 10 year old brother is having a video conference call for school while eating his cereal lmao. This is too funny to watch!

13) Kid fail

When dad has a #business video conference call but you missed him and need some snuggles and want to watch your funny faces in the monitor... that's what you do!

14) Hair fail

day 5 of self isolation: started calls at 9am this morning with wet hair. Five hours later, forgot my hair had dried in the same state. Wondered why I got funny looks on video conference. Just realised why!

15) Bathroom fail

“Woman's video chat blunder while working from home goes viral (Funny) #zoomvideo epicfail”

Thankfully, things sometimes turn out for the best:

Just had a video conference and boi is i nice to just be able to leave a meeting when it's done and not have to awkwardly stand while someone is trying to be funny after the meeting lmao

Getting Decluttered with Your Significant Other

This is a guest post from Rachelle Crawford of Abundant Life With Less.

While my husband and I have many things in common, such as our ability to relate absolutely every situation in life back to an episode of Seinfeld, we are really very different people. I dream of living the expat life, while he’s quite satisfied sticking close to home. I tend to be rather impulsive, while he’s much more strategic. He can tidy a room in a matter of minutes, while I tend to wander aimlessly from corner to corner like a distracted, lost puppy looking for a snack. Ooh, Cheez-Its. 

This is why it came as a big surprise when we both took to minimalism within just a few weeks of each other. Over three years ago, I went minimalist in one uncharacteristically decisive move, and immediately gutted my wardrobe in an afternoon. When my husband arrived home from work that day, I paraded him around our bedroom, showing off my heaping donation piles as if I were sharing with him what he’d won as a contestant on the Price is Right“Look at all this stuff we don’t actually need?” 

He was skeptical at first, but within just a couple weeks, he too dove in headfirst and somehow managed to eliminate even more clothing than I did. It was a month of surprises for both of us.

His jaw dropped when I, the typically “spendier” of the two of us, implemented a strict family spending freeze. And I almost fainted, watching as he added his old high school polo shirts to our donation pile. Yeah, that’s right, I said high school. Both of us looking at the other in shock, thinking to ourselves, “Who are you? And what have you done with the person I married?!”

Here’s the thing though. While yes, we both got on board with minimalism almost simultaneously, we didn’t always agree on what should be considered “clutter.” In fact, to this day, we still don’t always agree.

Take for example, our armoire-vintage coffee mug standoff.

In our bedroom we have an enormous armoire. Regardless of the fact that it’s well over half empty, we’re likely never, ever, ever going to get rid of this monstrosity. Trust me, I’ve tried. But for reasons I find ridiculous, my husband insists we keep it. I hate that armoire.

Now, if you head into our kitchen, and open the cabinet above our coffee maker, you’ll find a relatively small collection of adorable, eclectic coffee mugs. Now, it’s important I point out that if this article were written by my husband, that last line would have read, “… you’ll find an abundance of the most horrendously gaudy, mismatched coffee mugs on the planet.” He’d prefer we ditch most of those mugs, but for reasons my husband finds ridiculous, I insist we keep them. My husband hates those coffee mugs.

If you’re sharing a space, getting your partner on board may feel like the holy grail of becoming a minimalist. It’s easy to assume that once you turn that corner, you’ll be set, and on your way to living clutter free, forever. Amen. But in my experience, that’s only just the beginning. 

Yes, both of you working together toward the same goal is remarkably helpful. However, anyone who’s ever taken on even the smallest home improvement project knows the devil is in the details. You’re not going to always agree on the best way to get the job done.

Whether you’re considering minimalism, just getting started, or knee-deep in donation piles, here are 3 strategies to help you navigate the rough waters of decluttering with the person you love:

1. Choose Fewer Battles

Don’t swap your clutter for conflict. It’s just not worth it. 

The people in your home are far more important than eliminating the excess stuff. The fewer battles you take on, the better. Minimalism won’t reduce the stress in your home if you’re constantly arguing about what should stay and what should go.

There are moments when I feel getting rid of that monstrosity of an armoire is a battle worth fighting, but it only takes a moment for me to remember, it’s just not worth it.

2. Circle Back

If there is an item, or more likely items, in your home you can’t agree whether to keep or donate, opt to set it aside and circle back later. Sometimes a little more experience living with less can help. Continue working through some of the simpler areas of your home, strengthening your decluttering muscles together. There’s rarely an item that needs to be eliminated emergently. That is assuming it isn’t leading to an infestation of some sort.

Drop the debate and keep making progress in the areas of your home you can agree on. Remember, this is about creating a space where your whole family can better thrive, and that often takes time, patience and a whole lot of a grace.

3. Move at a Pace You’re Both Comfortable With

My husband is a really fast walker. It’s not uncommon for him to turn around and find that he’s either twenty yards ahead of the rest of us or we’re all half jogging, and somewhat out of breath, trying to keep pace with him.

You can only journey as fast as the slowest member of your family. It didn’t matter if my husband made it to Space Mountain at Disney World in record time, when the rest of us were still working our way through the crowd. When it comes to decluttering your shared items, moving at a pace that works for both of you will reduce the number of conflicts and ensure you both have enough energy to keep moving forward.

Keep in mind, your partner may be entering into minimalism with slightly more hesitation than you are. Work together to find a sustainable pace you can both keep up with.

If Your Significant Other Is Anything but Minimalist

I’m very aware how lucky I am that my husband agreed to implement minimalism in our home as quickly as he did. That’s just not the case for everyone. In fact, the question of exactly how to get your significant other on board with minimalism comes up a lot.

I’ll tell you this, nothing I said got my husband on board. You’re never going to nag your loved one into a life of less. They first need to witness the benefits and decide for themselves. If this is something you really want to pursue, if you’re ready to eliminate the clutter in your home so that you can spend more time and energy on the things that matter most, it’s vital that you start with your own stuff first.

Don’t use your spouse’s disinterest as a scapegoat either. Leave your shared belongings alone for now and implement minimalist principles in the areas of your home unique to you. In time, don’t be surprised if you find they’re more drawn to your minimized areas within the home, than their cluttered ones. Simplicity can have that effect on people.

How I Got Digital Minimalism Right The Second Time Around

This is a guest post from Leslie Watson of Less Haste And Less Waste.

Four months after reading Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport, I thought I had analog living all figured out. I spent two uncomfortable weeks detoxing from my standard American smartphone addiction until my tech cravings subsided. I was keeping so busy offline that I seldom missed my phone. Soon I was averaging just 62 minutes a day on my mobile phone, compared to the United States norm, and my own history, of three to five hours daily. 

My husband and I share a computer and don’t have a television, so my cellphone is often my only screen. Reducing my smartphone use did more than just free up two to four hours a day; I was less distractible and more energetic too. My relationships improved when I stopped phubbing family and friends. Some of them even volunteered to put their phones away during our in-person visits as well. 

I felt like a digital minimalism success story before quarantine, but as my schedule emptied my screen-free convictions faltered. According to Instagram, the rest of the world was using their time windfalls to bake bread and plant vegetable gardens, but I was glued to news headlines and Netflix. 

Apparently, I wasn’t the only one hooked on digital bait when the future grew more unpredictable. TV consumption reached staggering levels during the coronavirus crisis. Video game sales were record breaking as well.

In fact, I finally recognized the severity of my own personal tech relapse when my vision went blurry from playing too many rounds of My Little Pony Bubble Blast. 

Hitting rock bottom with my unicorns and alicorns left me feeling counterproductive and lethargic. Relieving unfamiliar stressors with digital entertainment had been comforting at first but several weeks of excessive screen time sapped my motivation for any greater purpose.

Ready for healthier habits, I resolved to get back in control of my tech use once and for all. 

The most important lesson I learned during my second digital detox is that in-the-moment willpower is fickle. Mastering digital minimalism is all about setting yourself up for success in advance so you won’t need to rely solely on willpower.

I also discovered the importance of modifying screen time strategies and goals during major life changes. Knowing several techniques ahead of time allows for a more seamless transition.

Here’s a playbook of the eight practices I’ve found most effective in reducing my screen time: 

1) Build a support system

Speaking up is the first step to normalizing a screen-free lifestyle. I’m growing more comfortable talking about my need to unplug. By bringing up the issue, I’ve learned that my entire social circle is experiencing digital overwhelm too. Once we broke the stigma, we were able to help each other stay on track. The best part was setting new standards for response times; nobody feels guilty for waiting until it’s convenient to reply to texts and emails. 

2) Replace some technology with analog alternatives 

Using a smartphone to update my calendar or grocery list often led to wasting time on other apps. I avoid that temptation now by using a paper notebook for planning and list making. 

3) Turn off most notifications 

Phone calls and text messages are the only phone features I allow notifications from. I check email and other apps at my convenience instead of reacting every time a notification appears. 

4) Use Do Not Disturb mode

From 9pm to 6am every day my phone is in automated Do Not Disturb mode. I also turn on Do Not Disturb manually while I’m working or driving. In case of emergencies, I allow text message overrides from anyone on my contact list who types “urgent.” 

5) Unsubscribe and unfollow

It was easy to decide which blogs, newsletters, and social media accounts to leave behind once I started considering how much I’d be willing to pay for their updates. Any content that I wouldn’t spend money on isn’t worth my time either.

6) Dock your phone

Portability makes our devices even more addictive. I used to carry my smartphone around in my pocket even when I was at home. Now I keep devices near the garage door. When I get an urge to use my phone, I’m forced to pause and decide if I want to walk across the house to collect it. 

7) Time-block online activities

Scheduling specific time slots for all nonessential tech use makes both my online and offline time more focused. When I think of an optional online task, I write it down as a reminder for later instead of grabbing my phone right away. 

8) Set personalized conditions for addictive apps

Some digital minimalists have resolved to only watch Netflix with family or friends. Others won’t use social media until chores are finished. The biggest game changer for me was creating a smartphone folder labeled “bike.” Apps in that folder are only options if I’m riding my stationary bike. 

My quarantine experience taught me to abandon all-or-nothing thinking about technology. I now have the tools to maintain a screen-life balance even in difficult circumstances. Time for higher priorities plus a calm, focused state of mind have been my rewards for practicing digital minimalism.

I hope the eight strategies above will help you accomplish your goals as well.
