Great advice from the professor. "Get the easy stuff right."

Yep. It's amazing how much that can hobble you--it seems like while the big stuff is what takes the most effort, the little stuff is what causes you to lose.
A simple example: Say I want to go out on a date. I worry about meeting people, I worry about being in shape, I worry about being interesting, I worry about all kinds of stuff--but the simple thing is having clean laundry. It's a simple thing to tick off, but it can render all of the other work useless if it isn't done.
