Summary of Goodbye, Things: The New Japanese Minimalism by Fumio Sasaki

I completely agree with the author that by emptying your living area of unneeded clutter, you create open space. The more open a space is, the more peaceful you get then it will be beneficial to our mental health

At first I wasn't sure about this book summary. "Great," I thought, "another single, male, Fight-Club-quoting, Steve-Jobs-idolizing minimalist is here to tell us how superior he is for reducing his life to a mattress and a MacBook." I wasn't far off in some ways, but before long the author's openness and lack of pretension had completely won me over.
