I run 4 miles a day, every day. At the moment I do this at night when I come home. It’s working, so no changes will be made until this schedule breaks.
The list of gear needed to run is modest: shoes, shorts, shirts, socks. Hat is nice but optional. I am under-stocked on shorts and hats seem to disappear in our household.
Today is the day that I permanently solve that problem.
The Path of Least Resistance. Admonishment to self: “Remove all friction you perceive between you and your heart’s desire.”
In this case I can remove friction by spending a modest amount of money to buy some shorts and hats.
Today is the day.
Memo to self: Solve nagging irritation decisively and permanently with violent immediate action.
Don’t worry about overkill. Overkill is rare, usually easily corrected.
Fear of overkill is usually an excuse for inaction. “Oh, I can’t do that. Something bad might happen!” No it won’t. If anything, fear underkill.
