Hey Mark, I think one of the reasons I don’t have many friends is that I like to have a friend like me. I tend to be a bit judgmental especially when it comes to close friends because I only open up to the people I feel close and safe with.
Hi Steph, omg that’s so true! I’ve gotten so used to being at home and working from home. As we’re slowly getting back to normal, I’m already feeling like some of my old friends are too loud to hang out and I feel a bit awkward when I hang out with them lol.. I come off as shy and quiet as I don’t like to be too loud in social settings. Hopefully, I’ll feel more comfortable as we slowly get back to normal.
Hi Liaa, your superpowers are SUPER COOL! I wish I could start meaningful conversations with people I just met. That’d be super awesome! To be honest, I’m a little bit socially awkward.How do you create meaningful conversations with strangers? Is it just natural to you?
For me, I’m good at telling story though numbers, which directly relates to what I do for a living. I can also be very caring and loving to the people I deeply care about :).
Hi Jeffrey,
That’s a great realization! I also sometimes feel like I push myself too much and end up feeling burned out when I should’ve taken some time to relax and take care of myself or taken it easier.
But how do you differentiate between wimping out/being lazy before reaching the goal vs actually needing the slower pace/taking a break to recharge?
Hi Mark,
I got distracted with life and haven’t posted for a while. The problem with books is that I don’t want to throw them away or donate them. At the same time, I don’t know how to sell them. I don’t want to sell them for a buck a book..
Hi everyone,
How fun to see new members! I’m happy that you guys joined.
I participated in the last 21 days challenge. I’m anxious for you guys to participate in the community 🙂
I’ve made some good progress so far. I finished reading up until the encyclopedia pages which show how to fold clothes from tops to dresses in pictures and store them nicely. It doesn’t make sense to finish reading the whole book first.
Another good news is that I finished all of my clothes. I folded them how I should fold using Marie Kondo’s method and kept only the clothes and shoes that spark joy in me. I got a bag of clothes to donate and another suitcase of clothes that I’d like to sell. Those clothes I want to sell are good quality and from known brands so I want to sell them if I could.
The next category is books which might be a bit hard for me because I love holding onto paper-based books. We’ll see 😎
Happy to hear that you’re making good progress 🙂
Thank you Mark! This is helpful! I am gonna go with the second one, which means I got a week to finish the book.
To be honest, I’ve been swamped with work and feel a bit depressed with COVID and winter in Seattle. Sometimes I got no energy to do anything after work and all I want to do is to have a nice dinner and watch TV with hubby 🙂
Maybe your underlying health conditions cause poor quality of sleep and you gotta go see a doctor?
Hmm perhaps you go to bed at a certain time regardless of what you haven’t done for the day. Sleep is important for health so getting good amount of sleep should be the main goal above anything else.
Hey Mark,
To be honest, I haven’t made any progress today.. hmm maybe if you count watching Marie Kondo’s series on Netflix haha
Anyway, I thought about reading the book in the morning since the first step is actually to read her book. But, I wanted to enjoy and take it easy as today is the first day of 2022.
My goals are:
-Finish reading the book
-Have maybe 2 bags of clothes and a box/2 boxes of book to be donated
-Go through my belongings and de-clutter the closet space
-Decide on 30 book I want to read for the year and put it in a box.
By the way, I bought 2 storage cases today from IKEA. I guess I have made some progress today 🙂
Facebook, TikTok, and Youtube Shorts are waste of time!! lol
I deleted Facebook and TikTok from my phone, and it helps 🙂
Sleep is definitely important for health, so I’m happy you’re working on improving your sleep.
I think striving for 2AM as your bedtime is ideal. Maybe you staying up late after 5AM contributes to your migraines?
One of the things that help me sleep is to try not to work on my laptop too much before going to bed and stop scrolling Facebook or reading all different kind of articles on my phone trying to fall asleep. Have you thought about/tried limiting your screen time?
Hey Mark, I personally don’t have any stream of passive income.
I am not sure where to start.. I might write a book
