It's not a linear path, and I don't think the book was intended to be one. Rather, it shows by way of example and also through other means, why life matters.

I read for an hour but got distracted =[
I could say "I'll read an hour a day" - Maybe that could work.. just so many things... I'll write more about the exhaustion that I'm dealing with later in detail.
