✔️ Today’s tip: Ask yourself what you don’t miss right now.

Last week, we asked you to tell us about the things you missed most (you can see some of our favorite answers here). But flipping that question on its head can be just as illuminating: What do you NOT miss right now?

On Forge, Ross McCammon was surprised to realize that going to concerts — something he used to do multiple times a month — was at the top of his list. “I love seeing shows,” he wrote. “But I can have ‘enough’ without live music.”

As Ross wrote, “Quarantine has shown us what we are. But it’s also shown us what we aren’t.”

✍️ We want to hear from you. What are you surprised to find you don’t miss right now? What has quarantine made you realize you don’t need in your life? Send us an email at forge@medium.com and let us know how this went for you, and we’ll feature some of our favorite answers on Forge’s Instagram.
