What to pack for a long weekend away

1 min read

I used to think good habits had to be big. These days I know the opposite is true: packing light works because it is small, kind and easy to repeat.

Where to begin

Start with what you already have. Look around, pick one thing and make it a little better today. Then do the same tomorrow. That is really all there is to it.

Make it yours

Small, kind and easy to repeat beats big and brief every time.

The second step is to keep it simple. Choose quality over quantity, notice what you reach for again and again, and let go of what you do not.

Keep it simple

Last, be patient with yourself. A calm routine is built over weeks, not days, and every small step counts.
