A tiny story about falafel, Melbourne and timing after a tiny failure

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

Part of me wanted the fancy version with all the tools. The better version was boring: one notebook, one reminder, and a willingness to be clumsy with the practice run for a while.

I started this because my quiet Sunday felt a little stuck, and culture seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.
