It’s easy to take our many tools for granted, since we are so immersed in their presence. But in some sense they become part of us, as extension, as a larger self. To choose high quality tools, and to take care of them, is to care for yourself and those you share them with.

Today’s culture of cheap & disposable everything not only poisons the land, but ourselves too. Literally, when companies cut corners, selling toxic & polluting products. But mentally, the disposable & cheap mindset spills over to relationships, work & self perception.

As you go through your day, notice the number of things you interact with. Is it a good experience? Is it enhancing your life? What happens once you’re done? When bringing a new tool into your life, whether a new computer or plastic spoon, give it some more thought first.
