How I did it
How to floss daily
It took me
365 days
It made me

How I did it: I use to be one of those people who flosses every great once in a while before the dentist. But then one day at random I flossed and then smelled the floss afterwards. I'd already brushed my teeth. I thought my teeth were clean. But the funky smell on the floss changed me. I floss every day now. And I still smell the floss sometimes. I know it is really gross, but it isn't as gross as having that in you mouth. Read how I did it…

Be a great dad
steps

Obviously something vague like great dad is not really actionable.

I plan to tell him I love him every day. And i know the quote from Dr.Lou about kids needing love the most when they deserve it the least.

I want to teach him self-reliance and the satisfaction of real accomplishment too. but he’s too little just yet.
