INTRODUCTION
It is often said that our grandparents lived better than us, but why?

Yet their working time was significantly higher than ours and their incomes were much lower ...

In addition they did not have any home appliances available today, or services, products or facilities which we access in XXI century.

Most of the time the tooling they had was mostly manual.
NO MAGIC
In fact, the solution is simple:

They did not have more than us a secret, a magic formula that allowed them to achieve happiness.

In any case, it is a sacred ritual and we never above our grandparents, all dressed in white, holding a ceremonial incantation in the garden by a full moon, calling their deepest desire eternal happiness ... except maybe ...

No need to marabout, or messiah, candles, incense and other charms.
the forgetting
This solution, we all know in reality. But we have forgotten ...

The facility with which we access all kinds of items, the consumer society has made us forget the basics. We can buy everything without doing anything and we're happier as a result?

The personalities are diluted in what we believe to possess the pseudo wealth of the temples consumerist. But the time spent to maintain them and replace it does not make us the possessed rather than the wealthy?
our memories
This solution is in our memories ... Just remember ... Relax and close your eyes ... Imagine you are at your grandparents ... Walk home, go in every room, in all the dependencies ...

Remember, our grandparents had all their tools for a corner, a corner for crafts, even the less wealthy ... even the least DIY ...

Their key is in this ... They created ...
Their solution
They made things, things they needed for themselves or their families. They made themselves what they could avoid buying to save.

In this way the family could save enough money to spend their budget to the essentials, the indispensable they could not do by themselves.

It was not always masterpiece, but it was functional, useful, and they at least had the merit of having done so. And gave them the feeling of happiness.
a first time for everything

Ils fabriquaient leurs meubles, ils construisaient les jouets de leurs enfants. Ils créaient. Et leur famille leur était reconnaissante d'avoir oeuvrer pour eux.

Et comme tout le monde, ils n'y connaissaient pas grand chose au départ. Il a fallu qu'ils commencent un jour...Mais quel plaisir quand ils y sont arrivés...


Ce début est un changement, une manière d'agir sur notre environnement. Ce commencement est de faire soi-même, de créer, de construire pour se construire.

THE ANSWER
Do things even makes us proud of what we did, makes us stronger. When we speak to change their lives, develop their creativity, we speak of the wealth of do it yourself. Therefore, we propose models step by step.

Our grandparents had far fewer facilities than we to them, and they felt more free ...
A QUESTION
So what do you think stopping you from doing the same?
