  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity
    Fresh air and movement are good for our entire being and can help us think more clearly and creatively. How does taking a walk each day affect yourself and/or your work?

    It felt like a good time to think and gave me time where I wasn't working or on technology

    On what I value and how much importance it really should hold, especially in comparison with other things and the effect this has on me.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity
    Social media can keep us connected with loved ones, make us laugh, and help us to learn new things. It can also take more time than we realize or intend to give. After doing this action for a few days, how do you feel? What do you notice?

    I feel more productive or at least like I've wasted less time. I usually don't feel negatively effected by social media but being on it makes me feel like I'm losing time to nothing.
