Little agency is not about changing the system. It is about changing your relationship to the system.

Put a sticky note on your bathroom mirror that says: “You have a choice right now.” The content of the choice doesn’t matter. The reminder does.

We will not save ourselves with one grand gesture. We will save ourselves with ten thousand small ones. We will not become free in a single declaration. We will become free in the quiet, unglamorous, daily practice of choosing.
