Life changing.

Revisado: 09-12-21

Over the last 3 yrs I have managed to downsize our 5 bedroom house for our 4 kids to the point that we are planning to travel the country for a year in an RV. It was made possible by the seed this short little book planted. I've now read (listened) to it about 6 times. The emotional connection to our stuff is really what it's about. Being a super intentional owner of our stuff is key. Thank you, Marin, for this book!!!!

Balanced and informational book

Revisado: 06-28-21

I had been reading books about unconventional schooling, but up until now they were very one-sided. I feel the author did an excellent job of summarizing evidence on both sides and then giving his take on it based on experience. I even appreciated his advice on parenting despite not being a parent, and perhaps even especially because he's not a parent because he offers a third party perspective. if you are considering walking away from schooling with your kid this book is a library of information that I haven't found elsewhere.

Slow, but worth it

Revisado: 05-23-21

It's a bit slow with a lot of anecdotal stories, but the stories are so symbolic and generalizable that you know there is deep truth and that research data is not necessary. The slow parts are worth it to get to where he relates the stories to the foundations of how children (and I think adults, too) learn.

Easy listen, entertaining, read by the author. One of my favorite minimizing books and I've read a lot of them over the past 2 yrs.

Treating it as an objective experiment and not a punishment was key. I've decided I don't want to drink for now. I'm not sure if I ever will but I don't even give it a thought anymore

I will definitely listen to more than once

Revisado: 07-10-20

I appreciate that the book was read by the author and don't mind her putting her own inflections on what she is reading as she is allowed to take the liberty to do so as the author. This book offers some similarities to her last book but still new material within the same theme of living luxuriously. It was so packed with good information and although some themes repeat themselves in different sections of the book, I feel it puts the emphasis on certain behaviors that deserve it. This book is a summary of a lifetime of reading books on bettering oneself and presented to the reader in a pleasurable succinct way considering how much material was reviewed for the writing of this book. Loved it!
