I find it a perpetual struggle – to collect more minutes in a day that matter. More minutes I would be proud of or better for instead of those that evaporate in the pursuit of easy comfort… I don’t think it’s about avoiding pleasure or what makes us happy – it’s about not wasting all of our energy on what offers vapid gratification instead of the overwhelming joy and fortification that comes through purpose, effort and depth.
