I’ve stopped reading the news. After hearing James Altucher saying that it’s all doom and gloom I thought that maybe that’s true. Also time is very precious to me. Could I skip reading the news and instead spend those minutes on something else? So I stopped. Haven’t read any news site since. Been feeling pretty good about it too. Haven’t missed out on anything...
Humans are highly habitual animals. We prefer to have everything organized in a well-known pattern. However, during our lifetime, we usually go through different phases when it comes to habits.

During the last year, I’ve started to question a lot of things. Is this all there is to life? Get up in the morning. Drive the kids to school. Go to work all day. Pick up the kids. Go home and cook dinner. Spend an hour with the kids before putting them to bed. Do some laundry. Go to bed....

Another change that I made to my life the last year is breaking free from the to-do lists. Those lists that never ever end. When you cross out one to-do, two new...
Now I’ve officially taken on the 500 word challenge! A bit scary. Putting myself out there for the first time. One of the rules is no editing so bear with me if this doesn’t come out perfect.
