    What is the difference between convenience and quality of life?

        Opaque JIT is convenient. Trackable prepositioned goods are quality.

        Convenience buys maple syrup at TJ's, stirs it into k-cup dark roast, drinks it on the commute, thinks autumn is awesome. Quality of life throws a multi-day get-together to tap trees, collect sap, boil it down over an open wood fire.

        Quality = made my life more good. Convenience = made my life less bad.

        It's "removing a frown" vs "removing a need".

        Convenience reduces superficial friction. Quality of life is well-being - but many confuse us with convenience. To thrive in life you need to work hard on yourself, internally. As the saying goes: Easy (convenient) choices, hard life. Hard choices (working on yourself), easy life
