Who should swipe right on me?
If your to-do list is longer than your last relationship and you suffer from decision fatigue, I’m the breath of fresh air you need. After one night with me you’ll be able to figure out what matters to you, do those things with ease and then say “screw it” to the rest.
What are my most attractive traits?
Well, I am a genius for starters. I’m also easy. Seriously. I’ve figured out 13 principles to help you nail the things you care about and drop the rest. “Decide once” is one of them. Imagine deciding once on what you give at every wedding. No more scrolling registries. I’m the guest who always buys the bath towels, but you can be the one who always shows up with two silk pillowcases. Decision made! Now you can get on with your life.
There’s a little dorkiness in each of us. Here’s what makes me dorky.
I’m obsessed with size but not in the way you'd expect. I'm into small. Starting small is the key to being a Lazy Genius. As I like to say: “Small steps are easy. Easy steps are sustainable. Sustainable steps keep moving. Movement, not necessarily the finish line, is the new goal.”
I like to be inspirational. Here is one of my favorite quotes to inspire you.
“You have permission to let go, wonder, and go slow or to desire, hustle, and power through. Whatever you choose, make sure you’re focused on what matters to you, not what matters to Instagram, your mother-in-law or the voice in your head saying you’re not enough.”
I’m a sucker for a great one-liner. Here’s one of my favorites.
“If a tidy house matters, tidy away. If a clean house makes you happy, spray your eucalyptus cleaner with gusto. But don’t get tricked. Clean doesn’t make you better, and messy doesn’t make you more real.”
What do I spend a lot of time thinking about?
The Magic Question! I live by 13 principles, and this is one of them. I’m constantly asking, “What can I do now to make life easier later?” Do you want me to teach you to have an easier life? You don’t need a dozen choices to prepare for later. Just one gets the ball rolling.
What will we eat/drink on our first date?
We are staying home, so we can really get to know each other. I’d have to make you my book mama’s famous recipe, Change Your Life Chicken. It embodies what it means to be a Lazy Genius. It’s a simple recipe with minimal clean up that gives me time to enjoy you rather than spend the day in the kitchen. Oh, and it’s so dang tasty.
If that first date goes well, I’ll want to take you home to introduce you to you know who. Let me tell you about them.
Kendra Adachi is my best friend as well as my book mama, and she’s going to be your new best friend. She’s the host of "The Lazy Genius Podcast" and has a kickass Instagram account (@thelazygenius) where you can find more tips for being a genius about what matters to you and lazy about what doesn’t. She’s a mom and wife and is totally rooting for you.
What celebrity would sound best if you dated my audio version?
Jenna Fischer (you know “Pam” from "The Office") is a huge fan of "The Lazy Genius Podcast" so definitely her. Plus, I think “Pam” would benefit from lazy-genius’ing Dunder-Mifflin’s party planning committee.
