Before solving everything, check the simple things

Some heavy days are made heavier by simple things: not enough water, a skipped meal, no daylight, too little sleep.

Before deciding your whole life is wrong, drink a glass of water, eat something simple and step into daylight for a few minutes.

It won't fix everything. But it gives you a steadier place to think from.
