Minimalist-inspired optimisation

Tim Bunting Kiwi Yamabushi

For clothing OR your smartphone.

There’s a minimalist trick you do so that you truly are using all that you need. That trick is to put, for example clothes, into a box and put that box somewhere a little out of reach. Whenever you need something from the box, you take it out and use it. Then, after a set amount of time, if it’s clothing you’d probably want a year to account for all seasons, you get rid of what’s left in the box.

This can be done in reverse too, and it works wonders for your smartphone.

Delete the apps you don’t often need. Then if you really need them, you download them again. Any app you don’t use stays off your phone. A halfway solution also works, which is to put individual apps (not all of them that would be too much) on wifi-only mode. If you need the app, you download it. If not, it stays off your phone.

Works a charm.
