The 100 Thing Challenge

How I Got Rid of Almost Everything, Remade My Life, and Regained My Soul

De: David Bruno

Narrado por: Jonathan Todd Ross

In The 100 Thing Challenge, Dave Bruno relates how he remade his life and regained his soul by getting rid of almost everything. But The 100 Thing Challenge is more than just the story of how one man started a movement to unhook himself from consumerism by winnowing his life's possessions down to 100 things in one year. It's also an inspiring, invigorating guide to how we all can begin to live simpler, more meaningful lives.

Contentment and Gratitude for what God provides.

Easy listen. Great perspective and attitude toward consumerism. Thanks Dave Bruno for writing and narrating this book.

Interesting Idea, Boring Book

Wanted to love this book - I love reading/listening to books about minimalism and/or decluttering. But honestly I found this book boring. Every little thing is over explained - it's more about every single thought he had around the challenge instead of getting to the point: what's the challenge and how did it go? Listening to his thought process was just painful "....should I could our bed as 1/2 a personal item? the comforter as 1/4 of a personal item? what about my spot on the couch that my dog shares with me?....." Completely overcomplicating things and even if that was his thought process we didn't need the whole life story of how he came to that conclusion.

Some readers might like the extra details be goes into. But for me it was too much and made the book too slow.

Interesting Idea/Foul Language Ruined It

The idea is interesting and the narration well done. For someone who presents themselves as a Christian, there was an unpleasant amount of foul language. That turned me off completely. The language took away from what could have been a helpful book.
