This episode brings together several ideas from earlier chapters — identity, goals, habits, and planning — and distills them into one simple practice: ritual.

In capoeira, rituals create focus, presence, and meaning before the game even begins. The same is true for life. How you enter the day often determines how the rest of it unfolds.
