Fancy a Minimalist Lifestyle? Here Are the Only 50 Things You Need to Own

Well actually, they're the only 50 things you need to own if you're mnmlist.com author, Leo Babauta. Leo's the author of The Power of Less and is also the creator of Zen Habits. Zen Habits is a Top 100 blog with 130,000 subscribers and recently listed as one of the Top 25 blogs by TIME magazine.

His list of the only 50 things he owns omits possessions he shares with his family, such as furniture. It makes interesting reading if you're thinking of going minimal or just decluttering your life and our home. Leo has loads of great ideas for simplifying your life. They certainly won't all work for you, but some of them may be inspiring.

Here's the list of stuff he owns. (Hard to miss the fact that he likes T-shirts and Muji and runs a lot.)
