Key Question: How Much Is Enough By Leo Babauta of Zen Habits on Minimalism

Leo Babauta's classic Zen Habits essay explores the central question of minimalist living: how much is enough. He argues that consumer culture's insatiable hunger for more can never be satisfied, and that 'enough' is a personal benchmark — having what we need to live, be happy, and thrive. The episode presents seven probing questions to help listeners define their own enough, including what truly brings happiness and whether wanting less could enable working less. It's a gentle, practical guide to intentional sufficiency over perpetual acquisition.
