What do you gain if you SIMPLIFY?
Dictionary* says:
to reduce to basic essentials, to diminish in scope or complexity, to make more intelligible.
What it REALLY means:
removing clutter and interference from your life and work; looking at large obstacles as the sum of small challenges; choosing to do less, have less, want less.
Why it MATTERS?
SIMPLIFYing, both physically and mentally, leaves more space for creativity, problem-solving, and exploring. Decision making is clearer, communication is enhanced and personal enjoyment is increased.
