14 Qualities of People Captivated by Tiny Living

Digital video vision board
Simplifies and streamlines goal attainment.

People who are captivated by tiny living seem to share many of the same qualities. Here’s a list of the characteristics I’ve observed along with details on why each one fits and/or is true.

People who are drawn to the tiny lifestyle are…

  1. Smart – Being intelligent is a prerequisite, as I see it. Dim-witted people wouldn’t be able to recognize the brilliance and beauty of tiny living.
  2. Principled – Principles are what lead people to tiny living. And it’s what keeps them committed to it.
  3. Focused – The ability to stay on purpose is needed because tiny living is unconventional and relatively new.
  4. Tenacious – It takes determination to persuade local authorities to allow them to build a small house or small house community.
  5. Innovative – It requires creativity to find ways to make the most of small spaces and things.
  6. Optimistic – Positive people see the advantages of tiny living. Negative people see the disadvantages.
  7. Idealistic – They imagine what’s possible for the ultimate lifestyle and they go for it.
  8. Enthusiastic – There are so many great opportunities that come with tiny living, it’s impossible not to get excited.
  9. Resourceful – All pioneers are imaginative, even if they didn’t start out that way.
  10. Frugal – The financial rewards are one of the biggest incentives for tiny living. And only a person who’s smart about money matters could appreciate this.
  11. Unconventional – It’s the nonconforming lens through which they view the world that inspires them to go down this less-traveled path.
  12. Environmentalists – Their love of nature inspires them to do what they can to protect it in every area of their lives.
  13. Compassionate – They readily share what they know about tiny living so others can benefit.
  14. Kind – A person cannot have the above qualities without also being kind. It simply would not work.

I’m sure there are more, but this is what I’ve noted so far.
