I didn’t know Lewis was on Fresh Air, I should look that up, thanks. I’m actually still working through the Vanity Fair article.

It reminds me of a very well-written and interesting book called The Art of Choosing, which also suggested that our minds need to pair down choices. After buying a new house that needed a lot of work several months ago, I find I am just worn out from choosing which home improvement project to do first, when and who to hire, what kind of windows to get, what color to paint the trim, etc. I’m wanting to go on a choice fast or at least a choice diet so that my mind can center on things that are really important. Thanks for the encouragement!
