Simplification
Success should not be defined by possessions
I must choose to have a less crowded life
My best life is one that has been simplified
Plastic lives are shallow and unenduring
Loving much is the shortest path to happiness
Instant gratification is the shortest route to dissatisfaction
Fulfillment often involves consuming less and shedding more
Invite yourself to experience more quality and less quantity
Cultivate love and harvest a bumper crop of fulfillment
Anticipate and gravitate toward a life that gives more
Time is the friend that demands that we do it now
Invest heavily in clarity and lightly in complexity
Of this I am certain: God keeps it simple where it matters most
Narcissism is far more complicated than selfless simplicity
