How I did it
How to give up caffeine
It took me
3 days
It made me
awake

How I did it: This year, I had cut myself down to one cup of coffee a day. I made it a special cup like cappucino or latte from a nice cafe. Finally, I went to a meditation retreat where they didn't allow coffee, and after a few days I knew I was free. Read how I did it…

How to build a house with habitat for humanity
It took me
2 days
It made me
Happy

How I did it: Actually, I did this with a different organization that's probably a copy-cat group. Regardless, I've actively built 4 houses in Mexico over the last few years. It's amazing what a handful of unskilled volunteers can create out of a pile of materials in one weekend.It's absolutely fulfilling to hand over the door keys to the family who's been eagerly awaiting shelter. Read how I did it…

Be a better blogger
the first step - will it lead to some journey? 11 months ago

I’ve gotten the first blog going, and it’s passed 5,000 visitors! Yippee!
It’s http://www.viewpacific.wordpress.com

Now, I’m working on other blogs?

Why, you ask? Well, the first one has been a playground to try things out without being too official or formal.

eat less sugar
it's possible, but can be tougher than you realize 2 years ago

It’s great to eat less sugar. Several years ago I did it for 2 years, and it was amazing how my taste buds came to life. Simple vegetables came to life and the flavors became delightfully intense.

There’s a lot of sugar, though, hiding in packaged foods. Sometimes it’s called by different names (sucrose, fructose + glucose, etc.) and in different forms (cane juice). There’s a lot more corn syrup in prepared foods these days.

It’s gotten easier, though, over time, because sugared foods become so intense that they’re just not tasty.

have better posture
Yoga helps posture - a lot 2 years ago

It’s not just that you get more flexibility and strength so your posture improves, it’s that with yoga you simply get more aware of your whole body. That straightens everyone out!
