    Transportation Car Share
    Take a moment to think of places you frequent often (work, grocery store, natural areas). Could you choose one or two days a week to schedule driving with a friend, neighbor or co-worker to these places?

    I can easily schedule driving to the grocery store as a carpool and actually do that right now for friends.

    One could always workout with a partner or go jogging together and enjoy that time being active and social.

    I sleep about 7-8 hours a night but 8 is where I want to be consistent. It's a matter of obeying your body patterns and when you get tired - which for me is around 10:30 or 11:00. For me, its a matter of discipline and being in bed at that time or starting to get my rest.

    I hang out with the students at school regularly and sometimes meet people at the gym and have interactions about the activities.
