Epilogue: Abandoning Perfection 258

“A new life begins only after small changes.”
A minimalist life of three people, three colors: emptying, filling, and balancing.

‘Minimal life’ has now become a very familiar lifestyle keyword.
A simple search of six letters will yield a wealth of information related to minimalist living.
But how many people truly understand, practice, and embrace the minimalist lifestyle amidst the overwhelming information? Kim Seo-yeon, Lee Cho-ah, and Hong Eun-sil, three minimalist practitioners with 32 years of combined experience, guide readers to find their true focus in "Starting to Empty for a Fuller Life" through their book, "Starting to Empty for a Fuller Life."

The three authors, each with different home sizes, possessions, and family members, have been practicing a minimalist life with the motto of “balance over perfection.”
These people, who have become experts according to their own interests, introduce ways to incorporate a minimalist life into daily life by dividing it into the fields of 'money', 'time', and 'health'.

The end of a minimalist life is not emptiness, but the ability to see the 'balance' beyond that!
The art of refilling life in my own way

For those who say that pursuing a minimalist life has actually increased their material desires, the three authors provide detailed explanations of the process of emptying, filling, and balancing by dividing it into the areas of 'money,' 'time,' and 'health.'
As a home manager, she helps people understand the relationship between minimalist living and money (Lee Cho-ah), and as a routine director, she shares a record-keeping method to reduce repetitive tasks (Hong Eun-sil).
As a dietary instructor, she also teaches us healthy ways to eliminate toxins from our bodies (Kim Seo-yeon).
The stories of three authors who experienced change through simple and consistent minimalist living will serve as a valuable milestone for those just beginning their minimalist journey, and a refreshing stimulus for those who have been practicing minimalist living for a long time.

The three authors, while writing “Start Emptying for a Fuller Life,” say they came to the conclusion that “the end of a truly minimalist life is not perfect emptiness and fullness, but rather having the eyes to see the harmony and balance that lie beyond that.”
I hope this book will help you empty out what's unnecessary, fill it with what you want, achieve greater harmony and balance, and discover what's precious beyond material possessions.
