“降低生活水平以提高生活质量的行为。”

— Investopedia

“……减速生活者,一个已经决定在自己的职业生涯中,更多并不总会变得更好的人。尽管总有一些退出企业者讨厌所谓的“老鼠赛跑”,但低调的人只是希望生活更加平衡。他们可能会选择退出公司生活,或者只是通过减少压力较大和耗时的工作来简化生活,以更加节俭的生活方式来弥补收入的下降。”

—《华尔街日报》

减速生活是迈向简单之路的第一步。

— 闲人·迪克森


减速生活也提倡简单的生活方式。它主要关注生活的三个外部方面:

  • 消费 — 有目的的购买。坚持基本需求。更少的支出意味着更少的债务和不能带来欢乐的东西。
  • 事业 — 少工作,多生活。不要忙着你的工作。减少工作时间或者找一份要求不高的工作。
  • 生活方式 — 简单,健康,更环保。整理房子。把对你重要的事情放在首位并坚持下去。花更多的时间在个人发展上,培养一个新的爱好,和家人出去或者在公园散步。

我发现减速生活对心理健康的改善作用有限。忙碌不仅是我们社会的步伐,而且是我们的思想。有必要努力使“猴子的思想”平静下来,才能真正享受您的生活。但是减速生活是迈向简单之路的第一步。

iSAVvy: Financial Independence — The Lows

Low on cash? What have you been spending on? Image from: Photo by  cottonbro  from  Pexels Financial independence is essentially able to sustain your lifestyle with the amount of money you have without working. This is one of life’s most difficult problems everyone has and many are unable to overcome it. —— Dickson Idlier I am not a financial consultant. What I wrote here is purely my opinion. The road to my financial independence is essentially be low on debts and expenses and high in investments and assets. How to control your expenses and debts depends on what is essential to you.

This is one of the best dramas that I have ever watched, especially since it is on esport.

Cheapo2Max : Benefits Of Intermittent Fasting

Image from: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermittent_fasting If food intake is the source of all your health problems, shouldn't reducing it be better off for you? —— Dickson Idlier Intermittent fasting is is an umbrella term for various meal timing schedules that cycle between voluntary fasting (or reduced calorie intake) and non-fasting over a given period. Methods of intermittent fasting include alternate-day fasting (ADF), periodic fasting, and daily time-restricted feeding. Why intermittent fasting? As food source is now more readily available to those who can afford it, such as Singapore, people now have an issue of obesity. This is due to the lifestyle, eating habits and choice of food. Since obesity is related to food, reducing intake of food is one of the natural solution to this problem. Intermittent fasting also has other benefits , such as: Weight Loss. The eating cycles allow people to control their appetite, eat less each day and track their eating habits better.
