Law 3: Time- Since I am a very impatient person, this law stood out to me the most. Like the author said, everyone waits and average of an hour a day. I feel like i wait a lot longer than that. I think anyone who is impatient as I am is selfish. We have everything so easy, because of the technology. We have a cellphone now a day, being able to call a friend when they're almost to their place, where as in the days before cell phones, people had to run out of the car, knock on the door, and wait for their friend to come out. It is stated, "Savings in time feel like simplicity," which I totally agree with. Life seems so much better when things go at the speed you want it.
Law 4: Learning- The other day a bought a car. There are so many buttons on the dashboard, it frustrated me and just added a lot of stress. I finally go out the car manual a read all the instructions on how to set the clock, turn on the AC, to turning on my brights. After reading the manual, I got used to my car really fast. Knowledge does make everything simpler. My story was an easy example, but that quote comes in everyday situations.
Law 2: Organize- Organization makes a system of many appear fewer. This popped out to me because I organize a lot of things that are around me, except for my room sadly. When it comes to school projects, work, school backpack, and scheduling, I am very organized. Everything does seem simpler when things are organized! The days when my room is clean, I feel no stress and tend to get things done more often. When it is messy, all I think about is how messy it is, and when I should get my lazy butt to get up and clean it up, which distracts me from everything else.
After reading the 10 Laws of Simplicity, I believe I can apply all of it into my life. At any situation, looking back to the laws, will help and make it easier. I explained real life examples on how it helps.
