A tiny win from São Paulo that made my week for absolute beginners

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 10 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

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.

The detail that surprised me was how much the library changed the outcome. Same plan, different setting, completely different energy.

I am saving this for the next time I overthink absolute. I keep a note about plantbased for exactly this reason.

That sounds great until you add children/pets/deadlines.

Exactly; the hidden cost is energy.
