I’ve been thinking lately about how much of “improving your life” gets turned into these huge projects.
New routine. New diet. New productivity system. Completely reorganize your house. Wake up at 5 AM. Somehow become a different person by Tuesday.
But honestly, some of the things that make the biggest difference are ridiculously small.
