Me and minimalism

 I used to be this person who wants everything to be complete, everything must have in that instances, or else, i feel, angry, sad and temper. It somehow makes me lose my money, buying unnecessary things, and have  a freak mind .. its either I do it, or I do not do it.. It makes me feel anxious all the time, as I want things to be complete, everything to be in order, or I become this person who is moody and angry all the time. Turn out, I do not have to be that way. because life still can going on smoothly without everything to be in perfect order or without I push myself too hard to have it all. 

Because having that mindset isn't' going to help me, but actually making me lose sleep, making me questioned myself , and making me miserable, when  actually life is simple, and wonderful. Life can be still happen as good as possible without me having everything in order. because what I have now, is enough to get me through the day. I always remind myslef, that I have enough, that I do not have to have everyhting figure out in order for me to feel good, to feel happy. I am enough. 

I used to feel anxious all the time, when the truth is, not so many things I can control, and there isn't much I can do, except be there for me, without I have to push myself for something I cannot do. Be in the moment and be thankful for things I have now, because these things that I have now, I forgot to appreciate it, when the truth is, when I started to appreciate the things that I already have, I can breath normally. because when I am anxious, I cannot proceed to do what I should do, what I should focus. 

In order to get myself in order, I start to eliminate things that isn't beneficial to me, that do not give me any benefits at all. Then, I found out that actually, once the item is gone, I actually okay with it, I do not miss it and I can live life normally. I can live perfectly fine with things I already have instead of keeping adding clutter in my possession that cost money.

Settle for minimal

This week, two of my friends, decided to start diet and out of sudden, I want to follow. So, starting this week, my nad my friends haven't touch rice. Well, I have eat rice twice, but my friend, zero. Ohh, dietting is so hard, but weirdly, I felt more energetic. I guess I'm going to stick with it so that I can achieve my dream boy. Jnegjengjeng. I cannot believe I talked about this because usually, I think it impossible to cut down on eating because I think I don't eat much. But still, I'm consider as fat. What I discover during this period is that I can still live goodly eventhough with lack of the things that I used to have. I'm kind a person who wants everything is there, is enough and I will be panic if my stuff is not enough and turn out its bad habit. I always ended up throw things at the end. Now, I wanted to live on a basic things. I think that will be good because I could save more and hopefully tae off same fat off my body. ;)

Living with Low Self-Esteem: How It Affects Life Even at 42

  I am 42 this year, and I recently discovered something that my friend warned me about years ago. At the time, I didn’t think much of it, but now, I realize how right they were. They told me, “If you don’t work on your self-esteem while you’re young, it will affect your life later on.” Well, here I am, 42, living proof of how true that statement is. I’m someone who has struggled with low self-esteem for most of my life, and it still lingers, affecting me in ways that I never imagined when I was younger. It’s not just an abstract feeling that you can ignore—it shows up in the small, everyday moments and, unfortunately, in some of the bigger ones too. The Daily Struggles of Low Self-Esteem You might think low self-esteem is just about lacking confidence in social settings, but it’s deeper than that.
