Day 23: The Three Pillars

personal

Short post today because I, of course, left all my packing until the last minute for my flight tomorrow from Austin to LA.

I don’t remember where I learned this practice, but I’m always surprised by how useful it is.

When I experience a difficult or irritable mood, I try to remember to ask myself three questions:

  1. Have I slept enough?
  2. Have I exercised recently?
  3. Have I eaten well?

95% of the time, I discover that I’ve neglected one of these and taking care of it fixes whatever funk I’m in.
