Culture of Consuming









May be everyday you read the latest newspaper and it provides the latest news but something weather you realize it or not is newspaper also provides advertisements. The advertisements persuade us to buy the products; okay the product can help you to undergo this life easily. Almost all the advertisements say like that. But is that a must you buy all of those products? Okay I know it’s up to you whether you buy it or not but something that you have to know that every product you buy make sure that that product can help you to reduce stress. Okay may be you are asking what kind of things I can buy then? Okay the things you should buy is what you need, not the latest product. Nothing’s wrong with the advisement but all we need is our consciousness when we buy something. Marketing try to persuade people to buy their products and they have the profit besides the high profit they offer amazing products. It’s not wrong.  Can you imagine if you home full of your things like furniture, pictures on the wall, clutter of newspaper everywhere, clutter of your clothes everywhere.

Advertisements always try to produce something new and improved and people try to save money and work harder to get the latest product. Maybe some people don’t think about their necessity but the trend or something which is on instead. Is that right? For yes it’s right. The worst thing is they work harder to get those latest things but they forget to enjoy their life. They work hard and forget how to enjoy their life. Apparently it’s simple to enjoy your life. Do not think about what you have to buy on this month but think about what you already have and enjoy it. Be thankful and spend your money on experience not things. Culture of consuming makes us forget about our necessity. Culture of consuming makes us forget how to enjoy our life. Culture of consuming makes us keep working harder but remains nothing.


Minimalism teaches me how to live with less things but also you are happy with those less things. Just be thankful. We have to realize the level of our necessity. What do we need? Hear our thoughts and what they want. Stop shopping for fun. Stop shopping for sale, shop if you need instead.

No Negativity on tattoos

Image
design and pict by Canva Some of societies have their own perspective on tattoos, some like it and some refuse it. If you are from those societies who refuse the existence of tattoos this is the right place to read because i'm going to tell you my story. I want to have a tattoo because the picture that I’m going to put on my body it means a lot for me. That pict is the depiction of my life. Sometimes i can’t tell anyone how I feel  beacuse it’s very privacy. But the way people reacted to my decision on having a tattoo was like this world would end. so, the first oneI told that I wanted to have tattoo was my mother. The way I told how desire I was to have tattoo was just like a joking and my mother didin’t take it so serious but then after many times I told my mother how desire I was to have it, my mother noticed it that this was serious and also this was the same way I told my sister and she noticed it too. Then my mother just gave  an anger explanation t...

Reward Yourself

Image
So, honestly I don’t know if this gonna works to everybody because this is my personal thing that I do to myself and also this is very helpful when I feel down and I can break it down, so it means I deserve a gift. Here I don’t hope to someone who will give a gift to me, I will go to somewhere that I want or buy something that I want. On the other hand if I completely accomplish my goals and have been discipline and being nice I will do this too. Yes rewarding myself. Nothing wrong to be proud of yourself and reward yourself. Back to discipline, it teaches you how to keep on your goals so everything you sacrifice for in the end you deserve a gift. If you keep focusing on your goals it means you have a ton of motivation (everyday may be) to reach your goals and also it means this way keeps you keep motivating because you know there’s something special in the end. I can say that rewarding yourself is the form of respect to yourself and this is so very important. You have to resp...

So for me the best place where you can declutter is the place where you go and fro frequently at home. I think if you look at that spot which is clean and tidy it would encourage you to do the next spot where you can declutter for the second time. But it’s up to you if you want to declutter the spot you like the most in your home. Also on this post I am going to list down the spots that I think we go and fro frequently in our home also (I think) these spots is the best start from you the beginner of being minimalist. So first I have some tips when you are doing decluttering, I know it’s hard to make decision that you have to remove everything you have, probably because those things are your favorite things and you don’t use them anymore or because those things have incredible memories, for me to keep the incredible memories it worth to keep it only in my mind or if you have photos you can scan them keep them on your computer or laptop. So here I want to assert that you have to ...
