An Apple a Day

Except there's no apple in this picture. There's bananas with spots. Bell peppers. An avocado that's probably a day away from perfect ripeness. And that's the point. I was watching Dr. Will Bulsiewicz break down what actually drives inflammation, bloating, brain fog, and long-term disease risk. The answer keeps coming back to the gut. Not genetics. Not luck. The gut. And what heals the gut? Fiber. Fermented foods. Plants. Consistency. Not a perfect diet. Not an optimized meal plan. Just... showing up. Repeatedly. With whatever produce is in front of you. Here's what stuck with me: Your gut microbiome doesn't need perfection. It needs repetition. The same way momentum beats motivation, consistency beats optimization. That's the whole premise behind Tiny Little Wins. Reduce the scope until it fits today. Ship something useful. No zero-movement days. "An apple a day" was never about the apple. It was about the daily. The small act, repeated. The tiny win that compounds. So today's tiny win isn't eating the perfect thing. It's eating something that moves you forward. Again. The bananas have spots. The timing isn't ideal. Life isn't waiting for you to get it right. A Tiny Little Win doesn't have to be perfect. It just has to be finished. Start anyway. What's your version of "an apple a day"—the small, imperfect thing you're trying to do consistently? Tiny Little Wins
