Minimizing Overhead to Simplify Life

I vacated my storage unit in Point Loma this weekend. In the process of doing so I donated most of my computer equipment to Goodwill. The quantity of which filled the back half of my car, and weighed so much that the tires sank into the wheel wells. The decision to do so was a difficult one to make. I came to realize that sorting through obsolete components and attempting to selling them off piecemeal would only serve as a distraction and ultimately a waste of time. To remain steadfast in the pursuit of my goals, I had to simply let go. I'm confident it was the best thing to do.

The remainder of my personal items were moved to a larger, less-expensive unit closer to home. I'm slowly going through everything, deciding what to keep and what to let go of. Since my financial situation hasn't improved any yet, I'm still in the process of liquidating assets as a means of supplementing my income. Another factor motivating me to minimize my overhead is the idea that less attachment allows me to more easily move forward with my plans.

In the simplest scenario, I would have no storage unit or apartment and would live out of my car or even just a backpack. I can only imagine this as a temporary solution though, until I could afford otherwise. Ideally I would have the financial means to own a studio space large enough to live in and practice all of my art making.
