Evaluation time 30/100

It is interesting how much you suddenly start thinking about an issue when you are addressing each days challenge. I really enjoy every day and take it as a new area to look at, just for what it is.

When this is over I will have several 100 days gongs to work on. It's a fun way to commit to doing something that you've put aside for far too long.

Day 31 – Framework before work

-

Another challenge about planning better :) One area that I know can save both time and lessen the stress: groceries shopping!! In our household we didn't hav a car until our youngest daughter was about 17 (if I remember correctly). But we were able to borrow one to go shopping once a month. I made this list with the typical items that we normally used and went over what was need every month. Then, once a week, I would go over what was on sale for that week and make a dinnerplan thereafter. It didn't take much time to do this and we never had to drag tired kids to the store each day. When I was studying computer programming, it showed me how much you can save if you do the groundwork properly before you even start programming. It amazes me to see how much money programs costs today and when they break down, they are so poorly made from the start that it cost additional money and a lot of headache to try and fix it. Oh, I miss that type of work ;-)

Day 30 – Gardening

Pedram once again uses the garden as an example, when he talks about using it as a tool to relax :) You don't need a garden, place pots on the balcony or if you only have window space, great. The idea is to plant a seed and tend to it and watch it grow. Is the goal to bring out a flower to enjoy its beauty or is it going to be something you can eat? Both will recieve gratitude and even more so, because you have nurtered it from a seed :) When I was sick, I found it very relaxing working in the garden. Sadly I had a very low periode for a couple of years and everything more or less was overtaken by weeds :/ We have cleaned up and removed almost every flowerbed. When we sell the house we want to live where we can have wild flowers and things can grow more freely. Having a garden that is too neat can also turn on you and suddenly become a duty and the whole idea of stress relief is gone. So don't go overboard, just start with something small :)

Day 23 – Podcast and audiobooks

We get bombarded with news, adverts and lots of other stuff at every time of day. Pedram suggest to choose for yourself what you want to listen to. Find a podcast or audibook that is of interest to you. And we should stimulate ourselves by learning about new things, but why doing it half? Why not give it your full attention? Do one thing at a time. So remember not to multitask ;-)
