Whole Foods is literally the best place to get vegan substitutes. For example, I just got some shredded almond cheese. Shredded. Vegan. Cheese.
It’s delicious.
I made vegan tacos today. Using Smart grounds Mexican Style, Whole Foods almond shredded cheddar, Tofutti Better than Sour Cream, Whole Foods salsa, chopped lettuce, and a hard taco kit.
However, I have yet to find the alfredo.

What if we don’t do it all in time?
What if we never get there?
What if something awful happens?
What if the end isn’t what I thought it would be?
What if something goes wrong?
What if they think horribly of me?
What if they don’t like me anymore?
Well, what if?
Then what?

// The three necessary virtues for optimal progress are confidence, self-awareness, and fearlessness.
// And of those three, fearlessness is the most important.
// I am capable of anything.
// Independence is incredibly important, especially emotional independence.
// I want to take care of people.
// I don’t need Vicodin to solve cases.
// “If people aren’t there to take care of me, stroke my ego, and worship me, then what are they for?”
// “To enjoy, of course.”

Doing things last minute can be just as productive, with no loss of results.
Contrary to popular belief, the key to doing things well isn’t planning ahead. It’s the feeling that planning ahead gives you. Any idea what that might be?
Knowing you have things all planned out days in advance is comforting. It makes you feel as if you know what you’re doing.
But you can know what you’re doing even as you procrastinate. So you have a week to do a project. A few days go by and you don’t touch it, while everyone around you is nearly done with their projects.
A common myth is that people get stressed out in these kinds of situations because they procrastinate. In reality, they feel stressed because they think they’re not ready. While doing things ahead of time can give you that feeling of readiness, cultivating that feeling independent of when you do your work gives you a bit more freedom.
So you do the entire project at the very last day. Your emotional meter and opinion of yourself will stay stable, so long as you know you’re capable of doing whatever it is you’re doing, and you’ve decided to do it.
That’s it. No planning ahead. No doing projects as soon as you get them.
You get to procrastinate, and do at least as well as you would if you planned ahead. Maybe even better.
Welcome to paradise. :)

Heroes seem to be a thing of the past. When’s the last time you’ve heard someone do something heroic?
It seems as if the stereotype of heroic citizens is coming to an end. While there are stories told of super heroes like Batman and Superman, as there always will, rarely do we see heroes in our own world.
That seems to be the problem. There are so many stressful things going on, everyone is fending for themselves, instead of trying to be a hero. No one stands up for anyone. No one really seems to be doing anything.
Why?
We thank heroes, because no one else is brave enough, strong enough, driven enough to get up off their asses and help someone.
We don’t have superheroes. We don’t have heroes. The only heroes we have are ourselves.
The world is so lacking in heroes. It’s time to change that.
