Inhaltsangabe

As we grow older, human beings accumulate more and more unnecessary things just by living. And not just objects, we accrue connections and status in addition to expensive goods.

If you don't throw these things away as soon as possible, you become a person who can't throw things away. Before you know it, your life is full of noise. You're tied up. Full of anxiety about the future.

That's a tough kind of life, isn't it?

This bestselling and hugely influential book provides an overview of the top ten things you can let go of in five of the most important areas of your life: money and the things you own, your working life, your physical and mental health, your relationships and your lifestyle.

We all cling to habits we learned from our parents, grandparents, friends and society and not letting them go comes at the expense of our personal freedom and overall life satisfaction.

All of the '50 Things' included in this book centre on the idea that minimalism can have a hugely positive impact on your life by clearing away the noise. Every item you let go of clears space for more freedom and creative energy to flow in.

Embrace the courage to let go!

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Daisuke Yosumi was born near Osaka in 1970. He has worn many hats. He was head of Warner Music (Japan) at age 34. As a record producer, Yosumi recorded ten million-selling hits before moving to New Zealand in 2010.
There he created a sustainable self-sufficient lifestyle unconstrained by time or place where he could pursue a minimalist workstyle independent of any outside system.

Yosumi is the president of LifestyleDesign.Camp, a school where students learn how to design their own post-capitalism lifestyle. He is also a noted environmentalist, as the first Japanese ambassador for Greenpeace Japan as well as Fairtrade Japan, and an ambassador for Japan's Ministry of the Environment. He lives in Bay of Plenty, New Zealand with his family.

He also hosts a podcast Noiseless World in Japanese, English, and French. His main topics, including Japanese minimalism and Zen degrowth thinking resonate strongly with people living in an excessively capitalist and over-materialized society.
