<div class="prose">
<p>I am sure there is a lower bound to minimalism. I am equally sure that I have not found it. So here I present a
reverse chronological list of steps I have taken, and continue to take over the years.</p>
<p>2025</p>
<hr>
<p>This year my actions are quite a lot more intentional when it comes to the aspects of
minimalism, intentional & slow living.</p>
<ul>
<li>I have started to declutter my time by removing all social media from my phone.</li>
<li>using a android phone with a minimalist launcher</li>
<li>putting phone in greyscale mode</li>
<li>not active on any social media platforms (still have accounts reserved for future use)</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Got rid of a host of clothing simplifying my wardribe to the following:</li>
<li>5 pairs of jeans</li>
<li>2 pairs of sweat pants</li>
<li>essentials such as socks, and underwear</li>
<li>White, and Black t-shirts (have not limited the number of these yet)</li>
<li>2 pairs of shoes (black, and beige)</li>
</ul>
<p>2024</p>
<hr>
<p>This is the first year you can say I was formally introduced to minimalism. Most of the things done here were
along the lines of "meditations", and less action.</p>
