Why More When Less Is Of Value.

The problem with life, living and lifestyle revolves around dreams. We as humans can never stop dreaming but most times circumstances pushes us to adapt to our immediate environment and because we have no choice we take the less way out.

But as someone who has cultivated a minimalist lifestyle, dreams are not priority, because I live my life in simple ways, taking each day as they come with the believe that miracle is the future unseen invent of happenings.

Not that I was born a minimalist, but the circumstances of life will make you choose the road that is best suited for overcoming challenges and I feel living simple will help me overcome most challenges.

The cost of living in my country is so alarming that things has continued to escalate in price every day, and as someone who has a family to manage, am devising every simple way possible to keep up with this challenge through making sure not to spend on those food 🥘 items that will cost me more.

And how will I manage to keep up with quality goods while spending less? I mean to make sure to buy more spending less.

The idea I have which has continued to work perfectly for me is to make things so simple for myself. As a fashionista, I make sure to go for simple dress sense which does not cost me much but has a perfect attraction to anyone who loves dressing up. Simple minimalist fashion tips is the key to maintain a good wardrobe that is more for less.

when I go shopping 🛍and grocery . I make sure to go for and substitute with most products that are new and just about to enter the market. These on - counter display products are newly manufactured products by maybe newly established companies or older companies trying to introduce newer products from their old ranges, and making there prices reasonable and creating its awareness to push it to consumers in the market place. And sometimes because the company that manufactured it wants to compete with older companies on the same product , each with their own brand name, their will be so much price differences in the two different items but of the same value in quality. The newer might even have a better quality because they want buyers to like it.

Examples are buying this Twisco Chocolate 🍫 powder that my girls liked so much, Golden Penny butter 🧈, Top Tea big bag Label, Creamy Crackers , digestive whole wheat biscuits, Birshey, Fullbar chocolate bars, etc. All these are new on the counter products I discovered lately, and instead of going for older well known products like Milo Nestle , Blue Band margarine 🧈, Lipton tea 🍵 that is my favorite,Mcvites biscuits , Snickers, Bounty, Kitkat Chocolate Bars , etc which has tripped in their prices because of the inflation in the country.

I will also check and buy the lowest in price juices and drinks 🥤, especially if they are of good quality and has the combination I look out for. And thanks to Hive I can make most of the fresh drinks 🍹at home now through being a member of #amazingdrinks community where I have learnt so much on different kinds of drink making.

However, as a bread 🍞 lover which my family has emulated from me, I make and bake breads at home which I bake in different shapes 🥯🥖🍞and flavors. Even these breads I bake taste 👅 so better than many out there because it’s customized with rich ingredients.This has helped me as a minimalist, living my simple lifestyle. Breads cost so much now because of the constant increasing price hike on all kinds of flour.

Making things simple for ourselves most times does not mean we are living a lesser lifestyle but it does enables us to maximize with less.

Thank you for stopping and reading through. Lots of love 💕.

All photos and images are my original. See you all soonest.

I think we can all agree on this, we tend to choose what work best of us as time goes.

It is nice to see that you managed your minimalist lifestyle during time like this.

Nice pictures.
