Minimalism is about reassessment of your priorities so that you can strip away the excess stuff — the possessions and ideas and relationships and activities — that dont bring value to your life.

Its simply getting rid of things you do not use or need， leaving an uncluttered， simple environment and an uncluttered， simple life. Its living without an obsession with material things or an obsession with doing everything and doing too much. Its using simple tools， having a simple wardrobe， carrying little and living lightly.

People usually became a minimalist so they would be able to let things they really liked surface in life.

“極简主义”是对生活中的关注点进行重新评估，这样你就可以舍去那些不会为你的生活带来价值的冗余事物，比如，多余的物品、想法、关系以及活动。

“极简主义”就是舍弃那些你不用或者不需要的物品，只留下简单整洁的环境和一个干净利落的生活。身处这样的生活，你不会对物质过度痴迷，也不会热衷于把每件事都做完或者总是想要做很多事。你使用简单的工具，拥有一个简约的衣橱，随身携带的物品简单轻便，生活方式也很轻松快捷。

通常，人们成为一名极简主义者就是为了找到生命中真正热爱的事情。
