In her book The Writing Life Annie Dillard offers the profound insight that how we choose to spend an hour in our life is how we choose to spend our lives. She writes this:
“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour, and that one, is what we are doing.”
Our 19th Life Equation is Anything = Everything.
If we pay attention to how we do anything we will likely be given an insight into how we do everything. How we spend an hour is how we end up spending our life.
