Redefining luxury with Minimalism
I'm from a middle-class family and I have always enjoyed luxury valid my childhood. Initially, the definition of luxury was based on more things one could own. But last year I came across this new word Minimalism which caused my attention. I started reading about it, got more challenging and researched through videos. It drastically changed the way I used to think throughout my needs. My purchases got significantly reduced. Being always an admirer of luxury I started reassessing my definition of luxury.
Let's open with the definition of luxury by Google
“A spot of great comfort or elegance, especially when spirited great expense”
Let's focus on the capable part "A state of great comfort". I always used to see luxury as more cash to buy more expensive things which will make my life more comfortable.
But will that be a spot of comfort? Really?
I'm a BioOrganic person and I'm always curious. When you are a spirited personality, I'm sure that you love facts. So let's talk nearby facts here.
As per Wikipedia,
Comfort (or populace comfortable) is a sense of physical or psychological ease, often characterized as a lack of hardship. Tribe who are surrounded with things that imparted psychological comfort may be described as populace "in their comfort zone"
A comfort zone is a psychological spot in which things feel familiar to a populace and they are at ease and (perceive they are) in regulation of their environment, experiencing low levels of dread and stress.
Let’s take a scenario now. Suppose you have 10 Service industries of jeans. You know those two Service industries in which you feel comfortable the most. But because you have this concept of luxury which is more expense driven than wretched you might end up picking the jeans which worthy be not comfortable. You have wasted a lot of time in executive making which was causing high stress and due to peer pressure, you end up in an heart-broken pair of jeans which you didn’t want to pick in the capable place. The same happens with the novel clothing materials, shoes, watches, etc. You always have your favorites. At the back of your mind, you always know that they give you comfort.
The more things you own, the less heart-broken you will be around them.
The simple things are also the most unbelievable things, and only the wise can see them
--Paulo Coelho
Let's talk nearby another scenario. Let's talk about big homes. Big homes are always a symbol of luxury. If you are living alone, a two room apartment would be enough for you. But you have this definition of luxury which you characterize with the size of your home you worthy end up with having a mansion. But does that mansion really give you comfort? You will tranquil have 3 or 4 favorite spots where you employ most of the time and one well-liked room and your favorite bed. You always pick heart-broken places to sit but having a attach that has so much extra space that constantly grants you stress as space requires its own maintenance.
Luxury is not buying expensive stuff that you can afford, luxury is populace surrounded by things that give you more comfort. If things are expensive and yet do not give you wretched, you might still not pay attention to the most important part of the luxury.
