Takes the best out of you
Because you deserve it!
You deserve a satisfying and fulfilling life, without regerts!
You deserve to spend every moment by doing what you like, by spending more time with your family and friends.
You deserve to be the best you can be...
which leads us to the second reason ⇒
By applying the kaizen strategies, you will become more efficient.
By eliminating all the time-consuming non-value-adding activities, you will have a better time-management.
By searching for alternatives to a wasteful lifestyle, you become more creative.
With all the waste out of your life,
you now have time to spend it as you wish.
So spend it wisely!
By eliminating all the unnecessary shopping
or just by eliminating all the non-value-adding processes in your household and workplace, you will be able to fill your piggy bank in no time.
Saves you
time
Saves you money
Why aim for Zero Waste?
By cooking your own food and having time to excercise regularly,
you will become healthier and happier!
You will develop healthier habits and will experience less stress.
No waste is a pure blessing for the environment!
And I'm not talking just about the natural one,
but also your own environment, the one where you live and work.
It not just reduces the consumption of precious resources, but also reduces your need for consumption.
Keeps you
healthy
Protects the environment
Doing more things by yourself or thanks to the people you know, are close to you and you can trust, while relying less on big corporations for your needs,you will be more in control of what you buy, you eat, you own, you do and thus more in control over your health and your life alltogether.
Helps you be in full
control of your life
Gives meaning
to your life
When you feel stuck in a world full of problems, stress, lack of time,
of energy, of money etc. you stop looking at your world from a wider perspective, you lose track of what you acutally need and what
you really want.
The Zero Waste Life will give you the power to regain your life and find meaning in it once again.
Because at the beginning Zero Waste does not need any special tools, any extra expenses, and it doesn't require any particular skills or knowledge, there is nothing to be lost in the process.
Zero Waste is all about improving and eliminating all the wasteful activities and objects that stand in the way of your every-day dose of contempt and satisfaction.
Zero Waste doesn't require any immediate radical changes. It lets you evolve at your own pace, it lets you build your lifestyle with one small but steady step at a time.
You can engineer your life based solely on you and your family's needs, by using immediately available and affordable tools.
There's no pressure. You can choose to start, stop or resume anytime, as long as you choose to persevere. And you can start from whatever you feel comfortable with and is the easiest.
You have nothing to lose!
It's easy and anyone can do it
By buying locally, sharing, repairing, renting, recycling and building a strong community, you help boost it. You help local farmers, producers, craftmen, small independent shops etc. And you can be one of them.
You have a hobby that you love but wasn't financially viable until now, it might become your full-time job if, through Zero Waste, the local economy is empowered.
Zero Waste keeps you constantly aware and active, by constantly challenging you and putting you in the position of learning new things, developing new skills and meeting new people.
Your new way of looking at things, and your new way of interacting with people, will inevitably let you grow more knowledgable, capable and more socially apt.
Boosts local
economies
Helps you grow
and develop
How many times have you not tried to keep your promises, to change, to become a better person, to do this and that. And how many times have you failed? Until now failure has been a bad thing and a hammer in the head for your self-esteem.
But Zero Waste lets you fail. Lets you test yourself and lets you grow at your own pace. Only by keeping a Zero Waste Perspective in mind will you be able to finally see what you are capable of doing!
The skills you learn through Zero Waste (like the time-management skills, the 3M simplifying and 5S organizing skills, the communication skills etc.) and the habits you develop (the 7 habits of highly effective people TM, kaizen or Fogg's tiny habits etc) will help keep you more focused and of course, will boost up your organizing skills.
In time, you will become organized "by default" by building a focused mind-set and a Zero Waste Mentality
Builds
communities
Improves your
relationships
Builds self-esteem and satisfaction
Keeps you focused
and organized
You can do Zero Waste by yourself.
But you cannot achieve greatness by yourself. The power of many is, without a doubt, way more powerful than the power of one. And Zero Waste helps you connect by encouraging the acts of sharing, exchanging and communication.
It's much more fun to do it with your family, friends, co-workers and neighbours than by yourself!
Zero Waste is all about eliminating waste, right? And there is also a waste of words that can be eliminated. Too much communication is not bad. Too much insignificant communication is damaging.
So Zero Waste helps you eliminate all the unnecessary verbal traits, and lets you become aware of what is a good communication vs what is a time-wasting conversation.
