Oh, thank you.

And that's kind of where I want to start.

Yeah, great question.

I don't even think it needs to be seven days.

I think it'd be five minutes.

You can do a lot with five good minutes.

Five good minutes of exercise will reset your mood

Five good minutes of writing will make you feel totally different about your manuscript.

It's like now the project's moving forward.

Five good minutes of conversation will restore the relationship and get people back on track.

So five good minutes can do a lot.

And I think you can scale it down that small and just ask yourself, how can I live five good minutes?

In a sense, each day is a small lifetime.

And how can you live a good life today?

That's really all you got to focus on is, can I have a good day today?

And then you can wake up again tomorrow and do the same thing.

And this idea of getting 1% better each day, it's really encouraging a focus on trajectory rather than position.

You know, there's so much discussion about position in life.

We have all these different ways of measuring our current position, like what's the number on the scale?

How much money is in the bank account?
