Instead of buying a product, we are buying a promise.”</p> <p>“What is the vision you have from the life you want? Does the stuff you own help you get what you want from this room?”</p> <p>“If you don’t respect your space, if you overload it, it’s the same as dishonoring as person, you are dishonoring your space. You will never be happy in that space.”</p> <p>“Stuff is a distraction.
