I found his last video to be really reassuring and I almost feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulder. I now know I don't need to do all this stuff, and yet still live a fulfilling and happy life just by simply 'being'. I don't do much anyway, apart from work in and on my business (probably need to cut down on doing that so much but I don't know how because of my need for money) and so I feel as if I am coming to live this minimalist lifestyle just because of how I am. I guess I just don't feel the need to do all these things that other people do. I'm very introverted and I enjoy being alone, and this time alone is when I feel the happiest and most at peace.
I can totally resonate with you when you say 'all that I saw to be a lacking in my life has been a blessing in disguise' Kinda strange thing that right? :-)
