@Liv: Me,too. But the intent is not to be brutal as much as it is to cut through the traps we sometimes find ourselves stuck in when considering life choices. To your point, it’s easy to hide — so easy that we often don’t realize we’re doing it. Thanks for your comment!

I love the brutal honesty that the answers to these questions demand. People hide too easily behind fate as an excuse for their lives, especially if they are not happy. When really, the choices we make dictate our life(styles)

@Daisy: My frame of mind certainly affects my decisions and what I see as choices. I feel like I have a lot more options after a good night’s sleep. Perhaps it’s because I haven’t yet listened to the news or anything else so I don’t yet have negative thoughts in my head. Thanks for supporting us and following us on Facebook and here!

Thanks for the excellent article. I find that I seem to make better choices when I’m able to control my mind and keep it from streaming negitive thoughts…not always easy.

I’ve been reading your blurbs on facebook and I always smile when I think about the two of you! Stay well

Much love,

@Matt: That’s the point of the piece: no one lifestyle is a perfect fit for anyone. We deliberately do not use the term “lifestyle design” in the piece. It’s jargon (so many non-bloggers we spoke to before writing it said “Huh? Lifestyle design? What’s that?”) But aligning priorities and choices and answering the 7 questions — that’s something everyone can relate to. No argument on time management and task automation: they’ll always make sense.

Interesting piece. It’s not for everyone but that’s not to say most of what we do is for everyone. I hate the term “lifestyle design.” It’s ridiculous. So many mini tim ferris people out there…doing what? a whole lot of nothing. But Tim strikes on one point that we could all free up our lives a bit. Even if being a digital nomad for you, people could all better manage time and automate some of their lives to free up time to do what they want.
