The item you use daily deserves more thought than the one you display occasionally.

REFLECTION

WHAT THIS MEANS

Attention tends to follow visibility rather than use. The thing guests will see gets researched and replaced, while the chair you sit in for six hours, the pillow, the shoes, the knife, stay whatever they happened to be. Small daily friction is easy to stop noticing precisely because it is constant. Over a year it adds up to far more of your life than anything on a shelf.

Walk through an ordinary day and list what touches your hands or your back most often. Pick the worst one and fix or replace it, even if nobody will ever comment.
