Ways to be more elegant that don't cost money: Be less available. Learn how to say, “I don’t have an opinion on that.” Replace your Netflix subscription with a free library card. Listen more than you speak. Create more than you consume. Handwrite thank you notes. Put your phone down when you're with friends and family. Read at least as much history as you do news content. Do things that matter slowly. Buy less stuff. Have a favorite philosopher. “I’m actually choosing to not get upset about that.”
