High Heat (Choose Two)
Pick the burners that need immediate attention today. Not forever—just today. Philosophy is wise enough to know tomorrow's menu will change.
The Four Burners of Life
You have four burners and two hands. Do the math.
Family, work, health, and friends: the ancient Stoves teach that you cannot keep all four on high simultaneously. Accept this. Something must be set to simmer, or you'll scorch everything and order expensive takeout.
Simmer Without Shame
Simmering is not neglect; it's strategic heat management. A gentle bubble still cooks the stew and saves your eyebrows.
Daily Burner Checklist
- • Family: Did I call, listen, or at least send a non-dry text?
- • Work: Did I do meaningful tasks, not just rearrange tabs?
- • Health: Did I move, hydrate, or consume something green?
- • Friends: Did I maintain a friendship beyond liking memes?
