Thanks to Henson Shaving for sponsoring today’s video!

Today in my last video about essentialism for a while, I go over 7 ways it has effected my life for the better, and the ways I put these methods into practice.

Hey everyone. My name is Nicholas and I make videos most about my experiences with minimalism, frugal living, tech, and things of that nature 🌱. So if that sounds good to you consider subscribing and I'll see you in the next one ✏️

The internet has fucked the world. I journal and started painting. As my mind would never rest. I don’t watch news, TV or want to know about everything that goes on. Great channel. Ty

Just get rid of clutter and do one thing at a time. I sold of a bit of musical gear and only listen news once a day. Eat a variety of food and at least I cook once a week for two days. When dry outside a daily walk, with or without camera. Greet people, even strangers.

I still can’t believe I found a minimalist who loves books and games.and books. I like physical media so I never thought having these hobbies lent itself to minimalism. I’m glad to be proven wrong.

I want to thank Nicholas for changing my life for the better, since I started watching his videos I have made good decisions in my life, and I feel much better about myself.

Love whenever the cat gets a feature in your videos! So beautiful 😊

Even if I didn't understand the language you were speaking in your videos I would gain positivity from them. The serene, calm delivery and atmosphere complements the topics your raise so beautifully.

Embracing essentialism clearly emphasizes the power of focused choices and the peace that comes with it. Streamlining decision-making not only declutters life but aligns your daily actions with your long-term goals. 👌

I was the same where i always wanted something coming in to keep my mind from being bored until i heard japanese minimalist Fumio Sasaki talk about boredom and the benefits of just letting yourself daydream. Now i actively take time out to allow myself to do this.

Kitty time is essential time well spent. Not only one but two sweet kitty shots! Thanks NG! (and the other stuff was good, too) 😸

Seeing the tag that you're 29 was such a relief. I turn 30 in October and also have been on my minimalism/essentialism journey the past few years. Definitely harder with kids but maybe it will rub off on them

[DeerfieldDiscGolf]

I am going to pick out my favorite clothes and donate the rest that aren’t for work.

I’m glad I now have a description or word for how I live life…. My wife is the total opposite though 😂

When I was in my early 20’s I collected a lot of stuff I didn’t need and I stopped but when I got married my wife showed me it was okay to collect things I liked
5:31 I’m 29 as well and had to learn to set boundaries with people who always expected me to be there and would pout if I didn’t

As a workaholic I couldn't stand having nothing to do. During my teenage years I developed an obnoxious amount of hobbies as an escapisme and a way to avoid having nothing to do. Slowly it overwhelmed me, and eventually I lost passion towards everything I once loved.
Now I'm learning how to rest and have nothing to do. I also recovered a bit and have a little bit of mental energy to do a few hobbies I actually enjoy, just because vibe. There is no need to prove anything to anyone anymore <3

I get bored too. But if I'm laying down, I want to have a random book to read. I like to get short kids books 📚 😅

Refreshing take, that's helped me chill on my commute and reset. Very welcome.

Great video as always. The cat wink at 06:48 was perfect!

[ReneeMiller]

I love your videos, Nicholas! I always gain something g from them and am grateful for your efforts. Keep it up! ❤️

[davidfry]

I have to say that for whatever reason, this video landed perfectly for me, at this time in my life, and I want to thank you sincerely from all of my wellbeing and understanding! Thank you again for sharing what shows up through you!

[jeffnunes]

Amazing video, man. I've been pursuing such a life and have never been happier. Keep it up!
