Am I weird for eating the same 3 things every damn day?
I eat the way Steve Jobs dressed.
The Apple founder and certified genius was well-known for the lack of variety in his wardrobe.
Jobs would get up every day, put on a black turtleneck, and go to work.
Reportedly, there were two reasons for this:
- He liked the simplicity and efficiency of not having to think about and pick out something different to wear every day
- He once visited a Sony factory in Japan where the workers all wore the same uniform, which built loyalty to the company (this story is recounted in Walter Isaacson’s biography of Jobs — apparently he tried to bring a uniform policy to Apple which was roundly rejected by employees)
It kind of reminds me of how I eat.
Every morning, I get up and have the exact same thing for breakfast.
Then I work for a while.
Then I have the exact same thing for lunch.
Is that weird?
Breakfast
Like Jobs, I love simplicity and efficiency, and I feel like the diet that I’ve come up with gives me all the nutrients I need naturally in the first half of the day.
