General Questions about Minimalism – Part 19

Each day Allah gives us exactly 24 hours and not a second more; and each day Allah also grants us a certain supply of emotional and mental energy.

Minimalism reminds us that each day that was given to us is like a container; and we cannot fit more into that day than the space we have.

That means that when we spend a little extra time on social media, we are taking from the time we have for praying, reading a good book/kitaab, or relaxing with our kids. There truly is no such thing as “free time”.
When you choose to live with less, you leave room in your life, your heart, and your day for the things that truly matter.
Now let`s take a look at some of the general questions that people ask about minimalism.

Will minimalism automatically make me content?
Although it is a great start, it isn’t an instant cure. It is a pathway, not the end goal.
Becoming a minimalist will give you more time and will free up more of your money than ever before, but we must focus on gratitude every single day in order to see the results.
It’s that journey of intentional self-improvement, and appreciating what we already have, that will bring us contentment.

What is a minimalist lifestyle?
It means living with things you really need. It means removing anything that distracts us from living with intentionality and freedom.

Is minimalist living boring?
Minimalist living is the opposite of boring. It removes mundane activities that take away from spending time with our loved ones. Once we rid ourselves of the unnecessary, we’re able to decide what will define our lives.
Some travel the world full-time. Others will find themselves more involved in their families’ lives than ever before. Becoming minimalist frees us to live a bigger life with a more passionate pursuit of our greatest purpose and goals.

Does this mean I can’t be sentimental?
Remember, less is not the same as “none.” There are no specific rules to simple living and nobody is required to get rid of things that bring value to their life. Most minimalists keep some sentimental items in their life… they just keep less than others. And instead of stuffing our sentimental belongings in a storage unit or a garage, we proudly display them in our own home.
