Today I'm going to talk to you about why more is not better. We live in a society where more

0:24.8

and more and more is always talked about as if it's better. We talk about having more cars,

0:32.0

better, bigger houses, better, more money, more clothes, more sex. All of those things are better.

0:39.0

We all think that that's what it is. We want more of it. But more is not better. And I'm going to

tell you why this isn't this is why the minimalism movement has become so strong is because what
