I used to carry a big wallet and a big keychain.

Regarding the wallet, I realized that all I need are 2 cards (ID and credit). I just put them in my pocket (no wallet needed).

Regarding the keychain, I made sure I did not need to carry keys. That means using digital locks (PINs or smartphone).

I like the freedom of carrying less.
