Intro
How to be a minimalist while in a relationship.
My name is Simon, and you’re listening to minimal 1, minimalism + simplicity

Have you ever struggled with heavy social pressure to go against your true values? Such as, what happens when you aim for minimalism, but your romantic partner isn’t quite on the same page? I know I initially would get frustrated when I felt there were too many things around, or that what was bought wasn’t what I had in mind. Maybe the pillows were too intricate. This type of conflict can definitely cause a rift in a relationship. But I realized, I wasn’t approaching it in a healthy way. I discovered, my environment shared by others isn’t what truly defines me, it is I who defines me. It’s possible to be a minimalist within a cluttered space, when you realize all that you really need is what you personally posses. Like a light breeze blowing through Times Square in New York City. The breeze is not bothered by the chaos, it’s just doing its thing.

Question of the day
Do you feel stressed in a cluttered space?
