Things we'd tell a friend.
Small, honest advice for a well-kept life, the kind you would share over coffee.
- Buy the better version of the thing you use every day, and nothing else.
- Say yes to the trip. You will not remember the money; you will remember the place.
- Put the phone in another room for the first twenty minutes of the day.
- Keep one good outfit ready for the invitation you didn't expect.
- A friend waiting for you at 7:30 is better than any app.
- Read the book before the movie, and the review after.
- Give away anything you keep only out of guilt.
- Write the thank-you note by hand.
- Book the spa afternoon before you need it.
- Learn something you are bad at, on purpose.
- Bring bread, not wine, to Sunday lunch.
- Pack half of what you think you need.
