Images of you.....


Newminimalists curate their image based on individual needs not collective wants.



Your image is precious

Your image is as fragile as it is precious [see photo]. In a time when your gender, race, ideology, etc are key determinants of your life your image is one of the few elements that you can control. Like a Daffodil thriving in a field of adversity you can stand strong if you stay focused on the needs, habits, and beliefs that frame your character traits. It is your core character traits that establish your image in our turbulent world today.


Your image at work is immutable if you have consistent character traits and the discipline to stay at-arms-length from collective wants.


Your image on your social network is strong and disciplined if, and when, your character traits refuse to turn to mush when put under extreme pressure by a woke collective.


Your image with your familial is curated over decades not moments at Christmas gatherings.


Your image starring back at you in mirror as you prepare to meet another day is a work-in-progress not a "selfie" photo of the moment.


Your image of you in the future does not have to be that of a wilting Daffodil - it can be one of renewal and growth that you nurture. Age can change your physical features. Yet only you can change the values and ideals that you stand for.


I have changed my true image [values and ideals] as I transitioned towards becoming a Newminimalist over the last seven years. .

Newminimalism is a "state of mind" I call minimal-you. Imagine that you could discover your unique version of minimal-you. Further imagine that you can do that in just ten days. Well the truth is that you can do that if you do the following three things.


First, eliminate collective wants. Second, automate individual habits. Third, recreate personal beliefs. You can do it, but, you will need to be dedicated and disciplined to make it happen. For more on moving out of the slow lane in life go to minimal-you.com

Hi SEF .... This is so true but they are "collective wants" not "individual needs" [in a general sense of course] However if you [minimal-you] needs be a maximal then that is fine with a Newminimalist's approach to a life well lived.... But I did get your point.... Ha, ha, ha...... Cheers, Richard

Right. But it's not easy to become minimal when society requires you to be maximal....;-)
