A short parable that I would use somehow if I became a motivational speaker tomorrow but have lived long enough to know that a couple of years from now I will be embarrassed that the thought even crossed my mind

The other day, I was talking to my girlfriend about expensive wine.

“What’s so great about expensive wine?” I asked.

“The complexity of taste,” she replied. “In fine wines, you can taste all kinds of things. Like almonds.”

I thought about this and realized, you know what else tastes like almonds? Almonds.

Just eat almonds.

    It’s like chocolate chip cookies. You don’t want a doughy cookie and a bar of chocolate. You want a chocolate chip cookie.
