Even though this crazy universe we live in is infinitely more complex than that shit Will Hunting was scribbling on the chalk boards when no one was looking, a lot of the most important things in life are actually pretty damn simple.

Ya know… be cool to people, have fun, be active, eat good foods, drink water, get rest, do what you love, make a contribution, nurture relationships, accept the “Isness” of things, be present… that sorta thing, we all know the drill… shit, Grandma covered most of it by the time were seven.

Often times, it simply comes down to doing less of one thing, and more of another.

Less complaining, more solution

Less Facebook, more face to face

Less processed food, junk food, gluten, refined sugar, artificial sweeteners, trans fat and Satan Monsanto, more REAL all-natural organic foods ( Actually, fuck less Monsanto, make it no Monsanto )

Less drinking empty calories, more water

Less excuses, more personal accountability

Less staying busy for the sake of being busy, more impact

Less getting lost in the doing, more being

Less vampires, more positive relationships with people who empower and support you ( and whom you empower and support )

Less American Idol, more books

Less sitting on the couch, more getting outside

Less bullshit, more truth

Less scarcity, more gratitude

Less blame, more responsibility

Less serious, more funny

Less focus on over there, more focus on right here

Less reasoning, more intuition

Less “got to” and “have to”, more “get to” and “want to”
