A tiny story about shakshuka, Berlin and timing that actually stuck

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 7 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

I tried this in Toronto with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.

Would love to hear how other people handle this. I am especially curious about the version that works on a tired weekday, not just on an ideal Sunday.

> Tiny progress is still progress.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where sketch stopped feeling new.
