Into the book
“Living simply means living easily.
This is not just true in words, but also in real life.
Many people fail to find meaning in life because they think too complicatedly.” --- Page 11
“Changing the direction of the dynamics of life does not mean going back to the old days, nor does it mean going back to nature as Rousseau argued.
Living simply means simplifying what is before you and within you.” --- Page 14
“Living simply doesn’t mean you have to perfectly organize every corner of your office or home.
Quite the opposite.
“Just put one thing into practice and enjoy the benefits it can bring.” --- Page 24
“Systematic collecting is different from just collecting things without thinking.
“To truly collect, you need a system that characterizes your objects, such as glasses with pretty pictures on them, business cards of people with the same name, or teddy bears of various shapes.” --- Page 51
“Even if you save your money in a shoebox that doesn’t earn interest, that money still has potential.
In contrast, things are already decisions made, and freedom of choice has already come to an end.” --- Page 82
“Get rid of the idea that wealth has anything to do with money.
It is a mistake to determine poverty and wealth through numbers or comparisons with other people.
No matter how poor a person is, he or she can meet someone poorer than him or her.
No matter how rich a person is, he or she knows someone who has more money than him or her.
And having little money doesn't necessarily mean you're poor.
Wealth and poverty are a matter of consciousness.
“A person who is conscious of his wealth will eventually accumulate material wealth.” --- Page 103
“Many people say that health is the most important thing.
And most people think of health as the state of not being sick.
But that's the bare minimum for health.
Being healthy means more than just not being sick.
That is, it refers to a state of feeling comfortable with one's own body, feeling happiness from physical labor, and storing and expanding one's strength." --- Page 173
“You have many tools to help you manage unexpected events, clear your path, and regain inner peace even in tense moments.
Because you know that your life is entirely your own, and that it is not made of piled stones, but of a solid pyramid.”
This is not just true in words, but also in real life.

A masterpiece of self-help books chosen by 10 million readers

“Happiness begins with organization.”
The happiness of simplicity that neither healing nor work-life balance can provide
"Live Simply" is a famous self-help book that has been translated into 40 languages and sold 10 million copies worldwide and 500,000 copies in Korea.
Even though it's been nearly 20 years since its publication, this book, which contains the "skills of letting go" and the "power of organizing" that have not rusted, is now being re-released with a new cover.
Despite the countless books out there discussing how to organize our complex daily lives, why has this one book remained so beloved by people around the world? It's because it embodies the "philosophy" and "know-how" of simplicity that transcends time and space.
We are talking about the skills to effectively control and regulate life.
It is another name for how to live happily while making the most of the abilities given to each person.
The simple life the author speaks of means living easily.
Most people overcomplicate everything and fail to find the true meaning of life within it.
This book addresses life's issues, from organizing your desk to time and money, interpersonal relationships, and inner goals, and leads you to a simpler and easier life.
True happiness begins with organization.
“Most of the things you value are trash.”
The ultimate manual with the most concrete methodologies to instantly change your life.
This book explains how to live simply through a seven-step pyramid that symbolically represents the most important and diverse areas of life.
You can continue forward as long as you pass at least one of each stage, and the order doesn't really matter.
You can start at the bottom, in the middle, or anywhere you like.
Through 33 suggestions and specific methodologies organized into 7 steps, you will be guided to find the freedom to live a life of leisure and achieve your life goals, as well as very specific ways to achieve them.
You can now properly face things you've thought, "I should do that," but put off because you thought they weren't priorities.
First, let's tidy up our surroundings with visible tidying, and then let's empty our minds with invisible tidying.
If you follow the methods in this book step by step, you will be able to discover freedom, purpose, and your true self.
Examples of methods appearing in the book include:
① Visible organization
- Ten Commandments for Organizing a Mountain of Things
- 5 Tips for Long-Term Storage
- A magical way to organize things into three piles
② Invisible organization
- How to escape from debt
- How to break the habit of procrastination
- How to overcome jealousy in yourself and others
③ How to find freedom and purpose and find your true self
- Find out who your judge is.
- Accept your pessimistic side as part of yourself.
