"Discovery of Less is the true story about one mans poignant and humorous journey of stepping out of the comfort zone of everyday life and letting go. Through his insightful and refreshing storytelling, Chris Lovett shares details of how he found enriching outcomes of a simpler approach to life and work after decluttering, selling off everything he owned and walking away from the security of a stable career. Although the material deals with important issues such as clutter, emotional attachment, stress, sentimental attachment, debt, career change, imposter syndrome and the like, there is always room for fun and Chris brings colour, flavour and reality through his storytelling and just adds a little bit of dirt to the clean minimalist aesthetic. This book is your companion to stepping out of the lost year, providing inspiration and motivation to ditch all that stuff that holds us back to be better and do better, with less."
