Patricia Tomsky shares her thoughts, personal stories, and reflections as she explain to readers that it is possible to live a much more productive and comfortable life even if you have to minimize because of a decrease in your income. Sometimes, having to live within a new budget can be extremely stressful, but this book encourages you to face your new financial situation by helping you to understand that some individuals, because of situations in their past, have been somewhat conditioned to live beyond their means. Tomsky also explains that you definitely have to get rid of clutter in order for you to live in the smaller home you may have had to acquire because of your new financial situation. Personally, I enjoyed learning about resources that I can use to start itemizing my budget and saving money. Additionally, suggestions on home decor and maintaining a classy but low budget wardrobe were quite specific, practical, and therefore easy to implement. Overall, this is an excellent book that definitely gets you motivated to reorganize your life in your journey toward minimalism.
