The Year of Less

ByMichelle

For those who need the next level of Kon Mari, but with your life…get this book.  Cait Flanders year of minimizing her life month after month, saving as much money as she can, and foregoing shopping for a year (with the exception of certain items like food, toilet paper, etc.) will leave you inspired.  I was very impressed with what she was able to do.  It leaves the question if others could do the same.  Could I do the same?  I think it’s worth a shot.  All the while she’s living a year of less, she’s also learning to live with a lot more.
