The single best book (or audiobook) I recommend every beginner about minimalism is "Goodbye, Things". The writing is simple and direct. It's full of interesting insights and advice.
After that, read "The Life-Changing Manga of Tidying Up" by Marie Kondo. Why not the main book? Because the manga (comic book) is easier and more entertaining to digest and goes over her main ideas just fine. While Marie Kondo isn't a minimalist, her methods complement it immensely.
And for the love of God, avoid "The Minimalists" or anything by them. Absolutely preachy, pretentious, surface level garbage.

There is one, this page is from it :D
I read it a few days ago and it's very cutely done, good overview of the KonMari principles.
Hey OP congrats on taking steps towards a healthier lifestyle. It can be really difficult to get out of a rut and depression eats you alive.. so I’m really proud of you and cleaning your room really does help with mental. Do you have a thing for anime and manga? There’s a manga I read that’s an adaptation of Marie Kondo’s Art of Tidying Up. The title isn’t just for tidying up your living space but also your mind.. personally I haven’t read the book yet but the manga really really changed my life. I highly recommend it https://www.amazon.com/Life-Changing-Manga-Tidying-Up-Magical/dp/0399580530
You could try watching the Marie Kondo Netflix show together and see if they get inspired. Best bet, though, is to read her book and fix your own stuff. Lead by example.
yeah, I found it in the new release section of the book store. It made the reading quite quick.

There's also a manga version! My husband and I got it on a whim at a book store and it's so easy to read, plus helps with visualizing everything! I found it much more approachable than her full length book which made it easy to get started.

I'm interested in buying anime figures, did some research and found this amazing Shirobako figure. I'm probably gonna buy it once i have more money. Also ive heard about this new manga coming about tidying your house, very interesting. Oh and before I forget, im interested in starting to watch idol anime, its something i tried to avoid after watching Perfect Blue but i wanna see what all the hype is about. Im planning on watching Idolm@ster, is that a good idol series for beginners? Let me know

I'm sure Marie Kondo's philosophy has shown here in the past, but if it doesn't bring you joy, you can discard it.
I had an external monitor and it allowed me to play a competitive game at a higher framerate and play the game properly. As an avid fan of the game it brought me much joy and still does now as my new rig's main monitor. But does it do that for you? If not, you could discard it after you take a moment to think of what it's done for you.
If you really love cooking and those pan make you think happy things, keep them. But if they remind you of the excess you feel you have, or your inability to use them effectively, then it's fine to discard the ones you don't always use. The one you do use will be a joy. Cooking a big meal on Sunday and saving it for the week can bring you joy, but if it hasn't so far, maybe it's not for you
Again though, if you really like something then don't feel the need to do it. But lemme tell you, a lot of things in my space don't spark joy.

> I'm not even sure where to start sorting myself (and my place!) out
Peterson won't tell you exactly how to clean up your place but many people have had good luck with Marie Kondo to get in the right mindset for that. Maybe that's a good place to start in the meantime. There's even a frikkin manga version because why not (which I may or may not have ordered a second ago >.>).
It most likely won't tell you anything you haven't heard before but sometimes it can help to hear it in the right words for it to finally click. There are also free 'cliffnotes' on peoples blogs if you look for it, but I think it loses its impact that way.
Other than that I can recommend Bite-sized Philosophy if you don't have the time to listen to Peterson's complete lectures.
This won't give you the same structured approach as the Self-Authoring Suite, the idea is more to keep yourself surrounded with the ideas and concepts that Peterson promotes. I'm the kind of person that has to be surrounded by a new idea constantly and hear it again and again for it to completely sink in, perhaps this will help you too.
As an adendum, the Life Changing Manga of Tidying Up is a great addition to the original text, and a perfect starting point for those looking for a more entertaining way to learn about her principles.

You lost me, but mentioning her book reminded me that Kondo has another book (a novel) coming out in June.
