The more you know, the less you need.
Knowledge empowers us. It takes what was a constraint and burden and turns it into a valuable opportunity.
I often use the initial phrase when helping people understand what to take backpacking. Their instinct is that an enormous backpack heavily filled to the brim with "the essentials" is a must.
The irony is that they do not need most of the items they voluntarily carry and it actually makes their hiking miserable because of unnecessary weight.
Learn to examine your end goal. Then, scrutinize what it actually needed to accomplish that and only that.
You'll find that you leave things behind, in a good way.
