Friction is Good
Similar to how the slight feedback of a pen on paper gives you just a little more control vs. a buttery smooth pen on buttery smooth paper slipping away from you, things that add a little friction to your life can be good for you. Add some feedback to your life and don't let buttery-smooth conveniences cause it to slip away from you. Skip the escalator and take the stairs if you are able. Listen to a CD start to finish. Drive somewhere without using your maps app. Write something down in a physical notebook.
