Episode 3039:

Courtney Carver with BecomingMinimalist.com explores the concept of "Living in the Land of Enough," contrasting it with the excessive consumer culture of modern society. She provides seven actionable steps to embrace a simpler, more contented life, including saving money, taking time for oneself, disconnecting from digital devices, eating real food, decluttering, finding inexpensive entertainment, and practicing gratitude. This minimalist approach is aimed at finding fulfillment and happiness in what one already has, rather than in constant acquisition and comparison.

Quotes to ponder:

"Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed." – Mahatma Gandhi

"There is no risk involved by visiting the land of enough."

"Enough, really is enough."
