The theme is progress, the variation is the ways you approach the theme:
- Physical: controlled eating, running, yoga, surfing, stretching, swimming, walking.
- Artistic: writing, looking at the stars and moon, listening to music, listening to singing, dancing
- Intellectual: reading, writing, learning, questioning, analyzing, thinking, conversing, purchasing.
- Emotional: loving, listening, talking, holding, consummating, enduring.
- All of the above: fathering, making money, being happily married.
Adhering to all those things and even more by no means guarantees progress, because progress and any other goal requires intent.
