Thank you for your thoughts! I also believe in personalized solutions – articles like these, and I hope I don't give the wrong impression, are meant to describe the baseline of human biology as long as there are no mitigating factors. As we know, there often are – but if you're able to follow this principle, most people will benefit.

As for your argument about the number of thoughts we have in a day, that's simply the best estimate I'd ever found and I used it for context. Many more articles could be written trying to tease the end of one thought from the beginning of another in order to count total daily thoughts. For our purposes here, the quoted data serves to illustrate my point.
