Everyone was trying to fly by building bigger engines and bigger wings.
​
The Wright brothers focused on one small problem: steering.

They added a cable and pulley system to warp the wings.
​
That tiny fix made the first flight possible in 1903.

They did not rebuild the whole machine.
​
They tightened one screw and took off.
​
Where can you tighten one screw instead of rebuilding the machine?

​The Two-List Expense Cull
Make 2 lists: the ten purchases that reliably bring joy or utility and the ten you barely notice. Keep the first list sacred. Attack the second list every month: cancel, downgrade, or bundle. Automate the savings into a "freedom" account you don't touch. This method raises savings without feeling like deprivation because you're cutting indifference, not delight.
