Simplicity De-Clutter My Home

How can you prevent yourself from accumulating more things in the future?

Sometimes I think I'm less susceptible to advertising and the cultural push to accumulate more possessions (latest fashion, decoration for the home, kitchen gadget, etc.) but I'm not. It's a constant struggle and challenge to ask myself, "do I really need this?" Sometimes I tell myself, "yes! I absolutely need this" and then discover after some time that I in fact, didn't really need it.
