41: Things That Matter with Joshua Becker (Bestselling Author, Founder of "Becoming Minimalist")
from The Second Act with Michael and John · host Michael Newborn, John Ballenger
Joshua Becker, founder of Becoming Minimalist, shares his journey to minimalism and the impact it has had on his life. Joshua is a WSJ best selling author on the topics of minimalism, intentional living, removing distractions, and generous living. He has been featured on CBS Evening News, The Today Show, The Boston Globe, USA Today, The Washington Post, CNBC, a Netflix documentary called Minimalism and many other major media outlets. He defines minimalism as the intentional promotion of the things we most value in life by removing anything that distracts us from it. Minimalism is not about owning the least amount of things possible, but about living a more passionate and focused life. Joshua advises starting the minimalism journey by removing possessions from a room and asking oneself what is truly important and aligning life with those values. The conversation explores the correlation between minimalism and overall well-being, the negative effects of clutter, and the joy that experiences bring compared to possessions. It also delves into the dark side of technology and consumerism, the importance of redefining success, and the life-changing benefits of owning less stuff.
