11 Tips on Adopting the Simple Life

Be content with less. Money doesn’t bring happiness, so rather than fretting about what you don’t have, reflect on all that you do have, and be grateful.

Focus on the priorities. What are the most important things in life? When you’re focused on the real priorities, material goods don’t matter as much. Spend more time investing in your relationship with the Lord, your family and others, and worry less about how much money you have.

The Peace of God
