Newminimalists promote trust in unconventional you.
Your "one think" future is being prescribed by a group, collective, or Clique that you belong to at work and at home. One think is a series of thoughts that invade your mind and fuel your wants, habits, and belief sets. The amazing thing about the "one think" chain of rings [see photo] is that there is no "outside" feedback loop. This means there is little friction inside this cocoon of momentum however there is also a false sense of stability and continuity. In turn this means that your "one think" momentum is propelling you towards a chaotic future driven by entropy.
Newminimalists live their lives outside the "one think" cocoon. They live in a thinking mode where diversity of thought is normal not the exception. They live with a mind that has "good feedback loops" for any issue they face in their daily life and thus use empirical evidence to counter-balance the ideological thrust of "one think" that can often overwhelm the mob. They live with referees who attest to their integrity and purposefulness even when those people are themselves caught-up in their own version of the "one think" cocoon. They live in a time and space where most of their life is more successful than they ever expected. They live with "satiated needs" and "few collective wants" and so they understand those who live in a "one think" cocoon and thus literally have no need to fear, oppose, or argue with them.

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
