The “E.A.S.Y.” Question I Need To Ask More Often!
A quote I LOVE the sound of…
and still need reminding to actually live 😅
“Ask yourself, ‘What if it were easy?’ Then go ahead and do that.”
Tim Ferriss
So naturally… I made an acronym 👀
💚 E.A.S.Y.
✨ ENJOYABLE
Sometimes we accidentally make healthy habits feel harder by focusing on everything we won’t enjoy.
“What if this was easy?” might look like:
🥔 keeping meals simple
🌮 repeating favourite recipes
🎧 listening to a podcast while food prepping
☀️ walking outside instead of forcing yourself onto cardio machines you hate
Healthy doesn’t need to feel miserable to “count.”
⚡ AUTOMATIC
You know what makes things feel REALLY hard?
Overthinking them for three hours before doing nothing 😅
“What if this was easy?” might look like:
👉 immediately chopping vegetables after groceries
👉 setting a pot of lentils on to cook while making breakfast
👉 putting workout clothes on before motivation arrives
👉 scheduling the thing instead of mentally wrestling it daily
Tiny automatic actions save enormous mental energy.
🌱 SUSTAINABLE
Setting the bar too high can secretly become procrastination and perfectionism.
“What if this was easy?” might look like:
💪 a 15-minute workout
🥗 one EASY tray-bake meal to have on repeat this week
📹 one imperfect video instead of waiting to become confident first
🚶‍♀️ consistency over intensity
The best routine is rarely the most impressive one. It’s the one you’ll actually keep doing.
🫶 YOUR BEST INTERESTS Some things feel easy now… yet become heavy later.
Future-you matters too.
“What if this was easy long-term?” might look like:
🌈 keeping healthy food visible and ready
😴 protecting sleep
💚 choosing habits that support your energy instead of draining it
🥙 learning a few EASY healthy meals that make eating food that loves your body back feel realistic instead of overwhelming
The older I get, the more I think “easy” is underrated.
Not because life should be effortless. Because unnecessary struggle is exhausting 😅
I'd love to know: Where could you make life 1% easier this week?
