Simplifying My Life

in minimalist •  7 years ago 

I'm going to Simplifying my life. I have a lot going on but I need to focus on my core values. I follow way to many people on YouTube. I listed out all the YouTube Subscribers that I follow 66 YouTube Accounts. After wanting to listen to different viewpoints through out 2016 and 2017, I'm just tired of listening to different viewpoints. I just want to simplify my life. I'm also going to figure out what I want to wear regularly too. I don't have an actual budget for clothing because I don't regularly shop for clothes. Usually it is under shirts, underwear, and socks that gets the bulk of my clothing spending. Which, I usually wait until I have one or two left and one category, and go to Kohl's or Target and buy it from there. When ever I do spend money on a shirt or sweater it is usually a branded clothing, like when went to the Creation Museum in the summer of 2017, I bought two T-Shirts and that is under a different budget, meaning my vacation budget. Over the years, I have acquired a lot of stuff. Not a lot of stuff in the perspective of other people but more along the lines of myself.

I'm also thinking about living in my car as well (eventually a van). I want to live as simply as possible. I'm not going to subscribe to the "minimalist" way, it is more about me just wanting to live a very simple lifestyle. I'm a Christian and I don't believe having a lot of stuff matters. This is coming from a single guy. My focus is on money and acquiring a lot of money not for my personal purpose but for the purpose of what I believe that will benefit the world. Two things that I firmly believe that will change the world is the Gospel and Voluntaryism. The reason why I'm a Voluntaryist is because of my understanding of Scripture. I know a lot of people are skeptical about the Holy Bible, because I listen to countless of different perspectives out there, from Atheists (left leaning and right leaning, and anarchists), Eastern Religions, Greek Mythology, different Christian perspectives, because I listen to most viewpoints out there, the only one that makes sense is the Reformed Theology of Christianity (Pastor John MacArthur's perspective). I do love other people both my brothers and sisters in Christ that take a different perspective within Christianity and the non-Christians out there as well. If I had to choose to save a non-Christian or a Christian, I will save the non-Christian in a heart beat, because I'm know where the Christian is going (most likely, technically only God knows who is in or out, but the person that proclaims Christ, I'm going to assume that he/she is a True Christian). So, in this nice long post, I'm going to end it here in the next up coming posts about Simplifying my Life I will make "official plans" and will keep people updated as I go down this journey.
