Today's Diary Goal
Aug. 18th, 2004 09:34 amThe small things are what make life comfortable - too comfortable. Practice self discipline. Learn to live without those self-indulgent pleasures today.
For example:
Pillows aren't good for your neck
Don't call him/her
Skip that second helping *and* desert
Showers are more hygenic than baths
Raining? Leave your umbrella at home
Cancel your dinner with friends
THe ceapest toilet paper is quite sufficent
You don't need sugar in your coffee
You don't need coffee iehter
Sitting down too much is bad
No TV at all
This is going to take me a while to think about it.
What are you giving up today?
**EDIT**
This diary day comes at a good time, as many of us are thinking about that whole ecological footprint thing and what's really necessary and what's not. Maybe consider denying yourself pre-packaged food today? Or your car? Use public transportation instead? In theory, one needs to prepare for these kinds of things, doesn't one. Otherwise, I'd be using a tonne of gas just to go around and get the un-packaged stuff for breakfast: trip to the bakery, trip to the fruit/veggie stor, trip to the butcher...
I'm still thinking....
