    About this ebook

    Goodbye, Things: The New Japanese Minimalism by Fumio Sasaki | Book Summary | Abbey Beathan

    (Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)

    Take on the new Japanese minimalism in order to achieve true freedom.

    Goodbye, Things is an interesting book for more than one reason but one of the most notable reason is that it's not made by a minimalism expert. It is by a regular person, like you and me. This makes us relate more to what he is saying and how a regular individual feels when taking on this philosophy… the results in Sasaki's life were extraordinary.

    (Note: This summary is wholly written and published by Abbey Beathan. It is not affiliated with the original author in any way)

    "Want to know how to make yourself instantly unhappy? Compare yourself with someone else." – Fumio Sasaki

    The desire of Saski to enter the world of minimalism was that he was tired of measuring the value of an individual through how much stuff he had. Humans constantly do this, develop an opinion of a person based on their income or the things he has that you don't. It creates a sense of envy and a negative environment in general. That's why minimalism started to become a thing because if you detach yourself from your worldly possessions, you'll be truly free.

    Witness how the new minimalist movement changed Sasaki's life and how it can change yours too.

    P.S. Goodbye, Things is an extremely interesting book that talks about the benefits of the new minimalist movement.

    P.P.S. It was Albert Einstein who famously said that once you stop learning, you start dying. It was Bill Gates who said that he would want the ability to read faster if he could only have one superpower in this world.

      Emotion is created by motion. If our environment is nasty, frustrating and messy, Guess what? Our emotions will be that too. Great beginners book, some great tips even for a minimalist ninja like me!
    • 4/5
      Interesting but extreme. Good themes but this book isn’t for a casual overhaul/cleaning of your house. The author suggests extreme minimalism and living with only the barest of essentials.
    • 5/5
      Great guide! Well discussed key points from each chapter that helped me understand the author's message and the importance of minimalism itself. This is such a helpful one for me to start living with only the things I really need. I feel enlightened by reading this! Power!

      I like your definition of minimalist.
      Good book! Must read!

    • 4/5
      The book is wonderful, I could read it over and over again. I have found so much inspiration in his words, especially about day to day life, the plans we are always making for the future and happiness.
    • 4/5
      I actually really got a lot out of this. I’ve been interested in minimalism for a while now, even though I am the exact opposite with an extremely cluttered house. This gave me a few ideas on decluttering.
    • 4/5
      This was a very refreshing book. The writing style is very personal and genuine. I plan to read it once more.
    • 4/5
      I've read a couple of books on minimalist lifestyle, and this is one of the best in my opinion. If you are curious and interested, it is a great instructional book.

      I've read dozens of minimalism books- definitely some better than others, but this one by Fumio Sasaki is probably one of my favorites, if not the absolute favorite.
