I really like how a section of this book talks about simple living but not in the context of giving up luxuries or a good quality of life, instead, it focuses on the reduction of mental and physical baggage.

The informative bits and pieces are well combined in the form of lists and that makes it much easier to absorb the teachings. I'm really liking how each observation is followed by a suggestion for the reader to improve; this makes it easier for the reader to actually take up that suggestion.
