The Creative Road to Doing More with Less | TSMAA

There are many roads to a leaner life. It may be a conscious choice, or it may be your only option. Maybe you’ve been laid off and you need to economize. Maybe you’re changing your daily habits as part of a quest for greater fulfillment.

Whatever your reasons, you can maintain or even increase your productivity while you trim your resources.

Take a look at these creative and practical ways to do more with less.

Changing the Way You Think:

  1. Clarify your purpose. It’s easier to stick to a big project like simplifying your life when you have your purpose firmly in mind. You might be motivated to reduce waste and save the planet. Maybe you want to save money or increase your personal satisfaction.

  2. Set goals. Define objectives that inspire you and keep you focused. Ensure your goals are specific and measurable. Write them down and post them somewhere where you can see them.

  3. Narrow your focus. Taking on too many challenges at once can be overwhelming. Start out with a few priority areas. Create a weekly menu of quick, healthy meals to shorten your time in the kitchen or resolve to shop only when you need something rather than using retail for entertainment.

  4. Appreciate relationships. Once your basic needs are met, material possessions rarely contribute much to your true happiness. Find meaning in deepening your relationships with family and friends. You may also cherish your connection with nature and your faith.

  5. Be authentic. A minimalist life comes in many varieties. You may want to live in a tiny house or just donate your old clothes to charity.

Changing The Way You Act:

  1. Cultivate a network. Collaboration is one of the most effective ways to do more with less. Ask colleagues and clients for more referrals instead of relying on paid advertising. Exchange favors with a neighbor so you drive your children to school on alternating days.

  2. Learn from others. Try to build on the achievements of others instead of thinking you need to start from the ground up. For example, if you’re planning on growing your own organic vegetables, talk with local farmers and families about what works well in your region.

  3. Monitor your time. One of your most precious resources is your time. Take control of your day by figuring out how you’re currently spending your hours. Browse online for free apps or do it the old-fashioned way with a paper journal. You may be surprised by what you find out.

  4. Play around. Leave plenty of downtime in your schedule even while you’re cutting back elsewhere. Rest and relaxation help to protect you from burning out. Meanwhile, you might experience some of your most creative ideas while you’re taking a bubble bath or throwing a ball around with your kids.

  5. Share stuff. Think about renting and borrowing the items you need rather than buying and owning them. Put together a group of neighbors to make a joint purchase of a snow blower or expensive power tools. Organize a clothing swap at your yoga studio or children’s school.

  6. Screen technology. Modern devices can save time or become a massive drain. Remove the apps that you rarely use from your phone. Think twice before you add on another streaming service.

  7. Limit distractions. There can be lots of interruptions offline too. Clear away the clutter around your home and workspace. Create quiet hours so your children and coworkers know when not to disturb you.

Downsizing your life can help you to accomplish more while you discover the joys of living with less. Find the path that aligns with your values and brings you more happiness and peace.
