How do you simplify your life?  Yes, it’s become a cliché, but it’s really a good thing to do, especially in these days of complexity, materialism and debt.  Join the online conversation and post, please, about how you are taking things simpler these days.

If you haven’t tried simplification, may I suggest that you un-complicate your life? Keep things on the simple side.  Here are some of my ideas:

Try to see difficult, all-consuming problems in another light–as the sum of a lot of little parts. Break down tasks into manageable, little steps. Only do things that are going to bring you joy, peace, and prosperity. Don’t do it unless there’s some good to come of it. Don’t do anything out of guilt, shame, resentment, anger, dread, hostility, or if you are forced or coerced.

Look at your schedule, and everything you want or need to do today. Is everything on that big list completely necessary? Can some things wait, or be put aside?

As for food, instead of a three-course meal, have a single item, such as a casserole or stir-fry.  Skip the two or three sides, and just have one.

What are you doing to uncomplicated and simplify?
