Minimalism: Essential Essays

At age 30, Joshua and Ryan left their six-figure corporate jobs at age 30 to pursue more meaningful lives. MINIMALISM: ESSENTIAL ESSAYS highlights essays from the first nine months of their journey into minimalism.

MINIMALISM: ESSENTIAL ESSAYS is an edited collection of 29 of The Minimalists' favorite essays about living a more meaningful life with less stuff. This collection also contains a special forward by Joshua and Ryan, as well as two bonus essays you can't find anywhere else: "Dealing with Overwhelm"and"Focus On What's Important."

The book is organized into seven interconnected themes: Living in the Moment, Emotional Health, Growth, Contribution,Taking Action,Passion and Mission,andChange and Experimentation.

Theorder of this collection is deliberate; it is meant to be read from beginning to end. Doing so will result in a better overall experience-a different experience from reading these essays all over the web-connecting various concepts that might otherwise seem unconnected.
