Basics 7: Christmas

1. Keep it simple. Reduce lists 'to do', events to attend, expectations of perfection.
2. Grab the opportunity.  To forget work, have conversation, eat real food.
3. Walk. It's more than locomotion; it powers our essential operating system of thinking.
4. Return to Dickens and the choirs.
5. Write 1000 words: the start of your set-at-Christmas novel.
6. The perfect gift? Your time, your attention, your thought.
7. Whatever your beliefs. Slow down and notice the magic of planet earth and the delights of a mind-expanding universe.
