GOODBYE, THINGS by Fumio Sasaki

About The Book

"The best-selling phenomenon from Japan that shows us a minimalist life is a happy life.

Fumio Sasaki is not an enlightened minimalism expert or organizing guru like Marie Kondo―he’s just a regular guy who was stressed out and constantly comparing himself to others, until one day he decided to change his life by saying goodbye to everything he didn’t absolutely need. The effects were remarkable: Sasaki gained true freedom, new focus, and a real sense of gratitude for everything around him. In Goodbye, Things Sasaki modestly shares his personal minimalist experience, offering specific tips on the minimizing process and revealing how the new minimalist movement can not only transform your space but truly enrich your life. The benefits of a minimalist life can be realized by anyone, and Sasaki’s humble vision of true happiness will open your eyes to minimalism’s potential."*

Our Recommendation

Fumio Sasaki weaves together anecdotes and psychological knowledge about human behavior and feelings, especially concerning our "things". This book is simple and short, but manages to change your whole mind-wiring nevertheless. Say hello to a little thing that will help you saying goodbye to many.
