• “When you get on the other side of the intermittent fasting habit. I promise this doesn’t occur to you to think about food. Not in that way. You go to the refrigerator; there happens to be food; maybe your future self did some things to help prepare food so that it’s really simple to make your glorious meal and nourish your glorious soul.”
• “There are opportunities everywhere you look all the time, all the time, and they keep getting better. You know what to say yes to, and that’s what you choose to do with your focus.”
