I feel my life's purpose is to be happy. Although we give very low priority to happiness, I think happiness is the most important thing in our life. I am no exception. Although I have already spent more than half part of my life, I haven't figured out my happiness. I know happiness means different to everyone. I have tried to find things which makes me happy. To name a few, playing video games, watching movies, walking in greenery, bicycling and youtubing are some of the things which, I thought makes me happy. I experienced so many time, even though I like these things so much, they don't makes me happy, regardless of how many times I do it. Some activities, like playing video games, even makes me tired instead of giving me any sort of energy. I figured out, that I am not giving so much energy and time on these things because they give me happiness, but because I am addicted to them. In any way, I am no better than alcoholic or nicotine addict. I don't want to be a slave of my habits any more.
My recent experience motivated me to get rid of my addictions. I am trying to follow less calorie diet. I am failing in it since long time, till last month. Here is my secret. Due to severe throat infection, I had to stop oily and sweet food completely. After following this for 3 weeks, I have observed that I don't feel carving for fried and sweet food any more. I don't need fried food to make my taste buds happy but I started enjoying every day food. Which was boring to me, a month back.
After googling, I got impressed with
Minimalist lifestyle, which is kind of better and disciplined way to get rid of all unwanted things from my life. I am sure, it will help me to increase my every level and reduce distractions in my life.
Here is my journey towards simplifying and decluttering my life.
