We always hear about people’s bad habits but what’s your good habit? Mine is whenever I have a meal that has vegetables in it I always eat that first. That way I get it out if the way then I can enjoy the rest of meal without having to worry about eating it.
I don’t understand your explanation of your habit. It comes off as you don’t like vegetables and are choking them down to get to what you like. Is that a correct interpretation? My wife just made the best dinner and all three items were green vegetables.
It’s not that I don’t like them but if I have a choice of eating vegetables VS eating a steak, I’d rather eat the steak
That’s what I thought too
Self-study and exercise. I read Marxist-Leninist theory (as well as scientific articles and other non-fiction that interests me) every day, and work out 4 times a week. Both have significantly improved my life.
How have they improved your life?
Reading theory helps me understand the world around me. It keeps me realistically optimistic, without spiraling into doomerism or naive optimism. Reading scientific articles on space, tech, etc keep me curious and ever-learning.
Working out makes me feel better, have more mental clarity, and more energy. It’s self-satisfying. It isn’t necessary for everyone, but I enjoy it and the feelings it gives me. My attitude and mood improves with it.
Sounds nice! Thanks for sharing
No problem!
Doing sport, regullary. It keeps me fit, healthy and sane. It gave me some pride in my achievements and more power in the long run. Even if it sometimes stressy to fit time for it in my schedule, it is worth it. It also taught me that I am able to do more than I thought, a very valuable lesson for me.
Amazing. for me it was plants that inspired me to do daily exercise. Plants are always growing. No goal no nothing. All they think and all they do is growing, getting taller and stronger.
This is such a nice view! :)
I do yoga twice a week
Not looking at my keyboard when typing. I switched to colemak last year, and since then I’ve managed to get into the habit of typing without looking. Which is very useful now that my keyboard stickers are starting to come off so it shows some letters twice and others not at all 😅
I usally walk everywhere(if its further away than five km i would go by bicycle)
I’ve gotten better at saying please and thank you often, I guess
I sprint stairs. Always. 3-5 a time, always have always will (until that future fateful day…)
Sprint up or sprint down? Cuz 5 stairs at a time up is mad talent
Five stairs at time down would break my ankles
Sproingy!
Telling my kids I love them, regularly and randomly. My parents only told me they loved me after yelling at me (or worse) and it took a long time for me to understand the toll that’s had on my relationships with them.
Out of the 31 meals i eat per week, i usually cook at least 27…most of those from scratch.
You’re eating 4-5 meals a day? Bodybuilder?
Sounds like your kids are gonna be alright!
Heh. Yeah I guess I did my math wrong there hahaha. Let’s quietly subtract 10 and forget it ever happened…
Always finish a shower with cold water!
I we ar my PPE. Most commonly eye and ear protection but I’ll wear a dust mask when routing or sanding, etc. Allowing onesself to be injured in the shop is unethical.
Assuming that I’ll forget something and setting a reminder of some type to make sure that I don’t forget.
I do this often
I always put stuff in the same spot so I don’t have to look for it or think about where it is. Everything in my wallet has a place, everything in my pockets always goes in the same pockets, my work ID goes in the same place when not in use, my sunglasses have a spot on the counter at home, and on and on. Greatly simplifies things and reduces stress not having to think about where stuff is or might be.
I have bowls. One near the front door for all the change in my pockets, another for keys and wallet.
Taking off my shoes at the entrance of my home and get out of street clothes.
Never drinking too much. I have self control when it comes to that, but not food lol.
