Episode 3539:

Leo Babauta explores the power of living "lean" by stripping away the unnecessary, possessions, commitments, and distractions, to focus on what truly matters. By simplifying and being intentional with resources like time, money, and energy, you gain clarity, freedom, and purpose. Cutting excess isn’t about deprivation; it’s about making space for what brings the most value and joy.

Quotes to ponder:

"Cutting back to only what’s essential means you have less weight, less baggage, less burden."

"Lean means having just enough, and no more."

"When you go lean, you free yourself. You gain space, time, clarity, energy, and focus."
