Start with the end in mind. Easily said, not always easily carried out. And sometimes you will never finish.

Putting up a shelf, yes. It may be technically challenging, if you don’t have the requisite skills, but it is specific and attainable.

When it comes to health and longevity, there is no endgame before death.

Instead, flip the problem.

Check in with each decision to see if it will contribute to the desired outcome (not dying early / staying healthy for longer). Smoking / Vaping? No. A third beer? No. A walk during your lunch break? Yes. Salad over chips? Yes. Making art over scrolling mindlessly? Yes.

We cannot change our genes, we can’t avoid the end, but we can influence the small things that add up.

Choose life every day, simplify and allow space for the universe to give you things.
