Tools for a Good Life

Take time to figure out what your style is. Having one thing which you like is better than ten that you don’t.
Ask for others’ suggestions and thoughts. That’s how you get over your biases. Others can be dead too 🙂
Self Care is ESSENTIAL. Some activities are non-negotiable. For me in no particular order:
- Feeling SHIT? Here’s what you did…
- Exercise/Dancing/Moving
- Art/Singing
- Writing/Rambling
- Quiet Time/Thinking/Reading
You need to like doing the thing, not just the end result.
Doing > Thinking or Learning. Just Do It.
Do it right, do it once.
Learn moderation – learn to start and to stop.

DGAF about others.
Bravery without fear is foolishness. Active Risk Management is important.
Be focused. Don’t be distracted, don’t daydream. Focus on the thing in front of you. There’s nothing like past or future that you can change. So, the present is the only useful reference.
There are things you can control, there are things you can’t. Change the things you can, accept the things you can’t.
Do something new, do something hard.
Don’t be greedy, don’t be stressed – prepare but don’t be frantic, pay attention to the details relaxedly.

Mise en place
Finish tasks immediately if you can. Don’t keep them for later. I do better if there’s real consequences.
Learn to time events to see how much time they take.
Quantity over quality. Because the first 80% takes 20% effort and time.
Schedules aren’t practical but routines are important. Everything doesn’t have to be done on the same day, same time. Just make sure you have a daily rhythm and groove so you don’t have to wake up thinking “What do I do now?”.
Don’t try to optimize everything, all at once. Do as much as you can. It’s a feeling.
Make things low effort.
Sometimes, you need to relax. Sometimes, you need to energize yourself. Learn to read your body.
