An exciting new era!

For too long, I lived with the typical American mindset of "want-want-want-more-more-more" . I was never satisfied with what I had, and I never had enough money.

Something had to give, and since I am not fortunate enough to have inherited large sums of money from distant relatives, I learned that my mindset had to change.

I am still in the process of retraining myself--I am giving up old habits, and picking up new ones that are making my life more enjoyable. I'd like to share my experiences and learning process with others who are looking to simplify their lives.

I have learned tricks to curb my spending habits and ways to emphasize the small things in life, making my everyday being more enjoyable. My greatest hope is that others can benefit from my journey toward a more simple life.
