    I’m sorry what’s long-term executive function about cancelling your appointments? What’s harsh about it?

    What about “take a bath” and “go outside to breathe” is less protestant-work-ethic than what I was saying?

    The simple, actionable things are, precisely, the simple, actionable things. “Breathe in the fresh air” is not actionable when living in a city. “Sit on a bench and people-watch” is not actionable in the countryside. You know much better where you live, what simple things you could do right now. The point is not about the precise action, it’s about that it’s simple and actionable thus you should do it. Also, to a large degree, that it’s your idea, something you want.
