Isolated incidents, one-off’s, what we do once in a while, whatever we want to call those things, never ever matter near as much as we assume they will.
As our bodies and our health go, the net average of the ongoing cause-and-effect relationship, or our default operating mode (set of routines, habits, choices, actions), determines where things are and the direction they’re heading.
The only time a ‘once-in-a-while’ thing actually does matter, is when we give it the power and the permission to alter our default operating mode, or to change our routine or habits.

What we do once in a blue moon, gets lost quickly in the law of averages, so long as our default mode is in a good place.
