Simplicity

I read some great thoughts today about simplicity from Ken Blanchard, Phil Hodges (authors of Lead Like Jesus) and Lee Ross. Here are some of their thoughts on how to focus on simplicity:

• Buy things for their usefulness rather than their status.
• Reject anything that is producing an addiction in you.
• Develop a habit of giving things away: “de-accumulate.”
• Refuse to be propagandized by the custodians of modern gadgetry. Time-saving devices almost never save time, and must be maintained.
• Learn to enjoy things without owning them.
• Develop a deeper appreciation for creation. Get close to the earth. Walk whenever you can. Discover once again that “the earth is the Lord’s and everything in it.”
• Look with healthy skepticism at all “buy now, pay later” schemes
• Reject anything that breeds oppression in others. In a world of limited resources, does our lust for wealth and pleasure mean poverty for others?

A SHIFT IS COMING...
