Sometimes we fail to implement helpful advice only because it seems simple and obvious. Things that are simple to do are also just as simple to NOT do. But that's not a good excuse.


Knowing and not doing has exactly the same result as not knowing.

I'm admittedly and embarrassingly someone who impulse-buys products on social media. Then proceed to forget and never use them. Worse, months later I'll see an ad for the exact same thing and think, "Ooh, I should buy that!"


It got me thinking. I bought it because I wanted the outcome it promised. So now, instead of buying something new, I go back, read the sales page, skim the glowing reviews, and get excited enough to actually use what I already own.


It's a surprisingly effective gratitude hack. Sometimes the best "new" purchase is the one you've already made.
