Success and Happiness are not “one size fits all.” I always thought I wanted a nice house with a view, a new car, and a luxurious lifestyle, but turns out, I don’t need these things to be happy or to feel successful.
Today I’m sharing with you 10 things I would never buy, even if I had the money. Please keep in mind that I’m just sharing my opinion :) There is no judgment if you enjoy any of these things. I hope you enjoy

I bought something not on sale from a name brand - and I feel it was a minimalist choice. My cell phone broke, I immediately went to Best Buy and got the cheapest name brand phone available. It was a necessity, and my decision to purchase it was strictly for that reason. My attitude towards my phone shifted almost 180 degrees, after that. I barely look at my phone since, and I never want to. My phone no longer steals my time.

I wonder about household and it's a good way in the USA to protect some wealth if there's, God forbid, a bankruptcy necessary. I'm not sure exactly how this could be done different to stay minimalist, such as buying a very large plot and using a very small house, and it probably varies greatly depending on state.

I used to feel so much pressure to consume more and more because I felt like those external things would fulfil me and make me feel more worthy. I would spend so much money each month on extravagant items and services. Only until I realize that my worth lies within me I was able to stop excessive consumption.

3 month rule: want something, wait 3 months to purchase it, if you still want said item then you know it’s not an impulse purchase. Helps a lot of people I know. Also if you ever have kids you might rethink the 3 bedroom with a yard. Had a tiny home growing up and it was miserable, came from a family of four and had a brother, but as long as it’s just you and your partner then 1 or 2 bedroom would be fine. Extremely soothing voice as well, thank you for always being a soothing presence to my day.

@@Sunflowers9191 what could you possibly want besides food that wouldn’t be there in 3 months? If it’s not there after 3 months then it wasn’t meant to be but a week isn’t long enough to truly decide if you need something or if you want something. If it’s something for work like clothing where you can’t wait then make sure you have cash in hand for the purchase, that way you are going to the store with intention not to just wander aimlessly and spend all your hard earned money. It’s just advice to help from spending or buying excessive things that we don’t need, use, or wear. Do what works best for you and your needs but it’s always a tip now in the back of your mind if you ever want to try something different. Hope you have an amazing rest of your day and do what makes you happy that’s all that matters.

Great tips! I’d only disagree on the last point of never buying full price - I wish to support local businesses and pay prices that an item should have - many things in this world are way too cheap, also thinking about unfair labor. On top of that we can’t continue extorting the supply chain and keep ordering everything online, imho

The beauty of minimalism is that it can be tailored to our reality. Being mindful allows us to make choices and informed decisions. I don’t mind spending on a fancy dinner once in a while, for a special occasion. But I couldn’t care less about a big house or fancy car 😁. I love the way you share your thoughts, it’s always respectful and inclusive. Your channel is a judgement free zone, and your videos are so calming, thank you Sophie 😊

This is so validating! I like to live modestly but other people think I am crazy or they use me as a benchmark for someone who they can favourably compare themselves to. It took me years to break free of all the conditioning and sadly, most people don't seem to realise that there is even another option other than to buy more and more. I have learned that when you go through life lighter, it makes the journey easier. Plus I can afford to work much less! More time for me to spend in Nature, with my family and friends, helping the community and doing creative projects and less time having to manage all my stuff. We think we own all these things but really, they end up owning us. 😊✨

In this society we are surrounded with getting the best things around us and society’s definition is having an expensive house, a branded car, owning and wearing luxury goods and its a while for me to realise that these are not the things I really want. There’s a lot of discernment to do in the midst of the busyness of life. Takes a lot to step back and think for ourselves. Love the videos!

I’m a new watcher, it has helped me realise I don’t need a bunch of stuff to make me happy. And I have been a lot more aware of what I’m buying now and you know what it really makes me happy. I realised I was trying to fill a void with stuff that never made me happy and would continue to buy useless stuff that really didn’t do anything but make me broke and sad. It’s not even really about money, I think for me it’s just realising what makes me happy. Thank you for your videos they are truly mind opening. 💖

I have longed for a bigger house for quite a long time. But I have to admit that a cup of coffee and relaxing music-these such small things-have already made me content this morning. Maybe..whether we live in a big house or not does’t matter after all, but rather, what you add to-or omit from-where you are matters much more.

Everyone used to think I'm crazy for not going to hairdresser every two weeks like so many women I know, but I've had the exact same hairstyle since I was a little girl and I only trim my long hair a little bit every now and then and paying for something I can easily and quickly do myself is illogical! I'd add newly released books to this list. I'm an avid reader and buying books second hand from charity shops and online has saved me fortune.

For reading, you can use the public library. About the hairdresser, I dont know anybody going more than 1 time by year. Must be different in another cultures. I go one time by 4 or 5 years, and it is really cheap. 5 or 6 dollars. Too I dont know anybody have been never in a resort or travelling first class. I always thought that is only for very very rich people, and I never understood the difference. The airplane is the same, the hours, etc. But the reality is most of the people doesnt buy that things because is not an option for them.

I love how cozy and warm it feels. Kids wish they had bigger bedrooms but I told them when their older they’ll appreciate their own bigger bedroom in their own house or apartment!!

It took me to age 50 to fully realize the vanity of most THINGS. My mother was so wise. She told me that even if we were extremely wealthy it would not bring us JOY. Why? Because the finest rugs, drapes, workmanship...surrounding us...were luxuries bought with someone else's pain...such as fine rugs are made with child labor in poor nations. Just food for thought. Be grateful for simplicity...there is beauty and freedom in it.

I didn't watch KZbin till my 40s and there weren't similar videos then if my memory doesn't fail me. I am so glad I made sane choices since since my 20s. Lower pay and responsibilities were the reasons for my sensible options. A decade ago, I bought a bigger place to house my parents and three children. There weren't much retail options and temptations unlike now,. All the more important for people to be aware and make deliberate decisions.

I completely agree with the house - this is one of the first things that popped into my head upon seeing the intro! It seems like the phrase "Bigger is better" holds court here so often. In my area, smaller older homes are constantly torn down to make way for mansions, 5,000 sq. ft., 6 bedrooms, that sort of thing. I grew up in a nice, small 2-story house (1,500 sq. ft.) that was just the right size for my parents and me. My father shared an even smaller home with his parents and brother. The thing is, once you're used to something, it's hard to downsize; it's always easier to upsize. Where does it end? Also agree with car upgrades/designer items/first class tickets: the extra cost is just not worth the benefit to me. I'll admit, I have loved being in expensive cars or flying first class when the opportunity arose (either relatives having a nice car, or being upgraded due to miles). But I like saving money on these things in order to spend on the things that are important to me. Great video!

This is very relatable for me too! When I reached late 20s, all of my views have changed completely~ I just want a simple and fulfilled lifestyle as well. I'm also in my early 30s (31 to be exact :D) and your points really resonated with me...well maybe the hair, I couldn't do it but I'm still making it as simple as healthy and less chemicals. Other than that, completely agree

I agree with many of the items, especially the designer clothes part! (I never understood the attraction). For my part, I don’t spend on mani-pedi anymore- I do them myself and results are just as good! Thanks for your video! Your voice is so calming, I relax just listening to you ;)

Agreed. Word by word. We have been a community of people who have been taught/conditioned to live by societal standard of success and ended up destroying the planet in various ways for our convenience. This is the kind of education this generation need to live a more sustainable life.

You're such a breathe of fresh air in today's culture. Practicality is something we all need to pay more attention to.. I really don't understand those (especially) wearing all the branded stuff with logos all over themselves, it feels like they might be trying too hard on top of that, it's advertising for the brand (s) for free! Some of the fashion KZbinrs here go on a spree every week to update on their over the top outfits, a ton of makeup, big houses, fancy cars that cost a lot & that isn't 'normal' in my humble opinion. Most people don't want to do that, because it doesn't make sense. Yesterday I was watching an ex model who is now in her 50's, and it was sad to hear how the society's expectations of her because she chose to age gracefully, and not getting her hair colored or have any plastic surgery. Happiness, peace & joy usually don't came with a price tag. Or an item attach to it. Cheers x

See how society patronises women? As entertainment for the men. There is nothing wrong with a woman refusing to dye her hair or have plastic surgery.
