What are the 5 things you need to add to your life right now in order to have a more fulfilling life?
now you just made it more unfulfilling… the truth is you need to subtract and not add.
 
Reverse EQ’ing. Does it sound bad? Then take away what sounds bad, don’t add to the mix, it will only make it more loud, distracted and mushy. 
 
What is it about humans that we feel when things are not as they should be we want to add stuff, things, ideas, relationships etc… when we get a much more powerful impact by subtracting.
