I had to let go of my lifelong neuroticism to regain my mental and physical health and one thing I've noticed is that people get very offended when you refuse to stress yourself out in the same manner as them
why did the engineer take a million dollar paycut? applying for jobs is exhausting, interviewing is nerve wrecking, telling your collegeas you'll leave is extremely sad, getting new colleagues is scary

I'm a firm believer that everything always works out as long as you stay in motion. You don't even have to know what you're doing. You often won't. Just avoid spending the majority of your time in your head
Go out and talk to people. Tinker with shiny objects that stoke your curiosity. Follow excitement without judgement. Collect a story to tell. Don't label and categorize activities or wonder if you're being productive or not. Simply do things because you can and be engaged with whatever you're doing
If you can end each day having gained a bit more interestingness, absorbed a bit more inspiration, or experienced a bit more life, all is well. Embodying this feeling is all that's required for you to rest easy knowing you got ahead, because forward progress is measured by the energy you radiate rather than the outcomes you see
Now it's merely a simple matter of continuing to get ahead. Light on your feet, surrendering to the flow of reality. The path will appear in front of you. Lucky breaks, unpredictable blessings, lightbulb moments abound. Not a matter of if, but when. Trust yourself. Enjoy the journey. God will never lead you astray
Preserved peak-season tomatoes are so so good to have in the pantry. Extremely high roi
Do yourself a favor: at the end of this summer, pick up a huge box of good tomatoes from a farmers market (or grow a couple plants in the garden). Make sure theyre sweet and sun-ripened - ask for a sample first. Cook them down in a big pot into a tomato soup/sauce. Put it in jars and waterbath can it (easy) to make it shelf-stable
Now you will have the best tomato sauce all year. Shakshouka for breakfasts. Tomato soup with a drizzle of oil or cream for lunches. Bolognese for dinners. It'll all be miles better than store bought tomatoes
