REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

What gets covered first tells you where the money is. In any stall, kitchen, or workshop, the order in which things are protected is a quick and honest account of what the person cannot replace, and it usually differs from what they talk about most. Attention under pressure is more revealing than any description of priorities.

Watch what people cover, and notice what you cover yourself when a week gets difficult. What you protect when there is no time to think about it is a fair account of what you actually value, and it is worth checking whether you agree with your own answer.
