Hello and

welcome to being well, I'm Forrest Hansen.

There is a lot of advice out there.

Much of it is complicated and it could be There is a lot of advice out there.

Much of it is complicated and it can be challenging sometimes

to find simple things to focus our attention on.

Sometimes it's nice to have one simple thing to focus on each day, just one thing to do for your personal

well-being and development.

As we continue to interview some fantastic experts, we're asking them for their just one thing, just one thing

that they do each day for their own well-being.

So this is just one thing you

you do you feel like is the most important thing you do every day inside your own

mind for your own well-being.

For me and everyone's different. For me, I need lots of reminders throughout my day, so I can hear these teachings and they're just clear as can be and I think I will never ever forget and then five minutes later I forget and so for me

what has been really key is this sense of I call it the 5% principle where if I can just be 5% kinder or 5% more patient or 5% more curious,

it changes the entire quality of my day. And I realize I don't have to be perfect right it's not about

doing everything perfectly it's about practice that we're constantly evolving you know perfection is the antithesis of evolution.

The whole point of evolution is that we're taking these step by step in a direction

towards growth and change.

That's a profound comment,

including biological evolution, obviously.

That's really interesting.
