    Last day of the challenge! Keep up the good habits, shed the bad ones...

    Luckily, many meetings that once had to take place face-to-face can now be made over the internet with virtual meeting software.

    It's about managing your stuff. Getting rid of things that clutter and do not add value to your life. It's about maintaining those that do. You have to make difficult decisions (Will I need this in the future or can I get rid of it?) and may have to live with a little regret (I wish I had kept that!) but living simpler has so many benefits.

    I think I need to set some more ambitious goals.

    One huge barrier to this is the overabundance of them. People are often willing if not eager to spend a little extra for convenience. Prior to the saturation of bottled water, people would have to bring their own bottle if they wanted to bring water with them somewhere, or get it at their destination. Now it's so easy to throw a little bottle...

    The hardest part about the own-cup thing is having to carry it around "in case" you might get coffee and then carrying the empty cup when you're done. An inconvenience at best, but still an obstacle. Having a good leak-proof lid is key as you don't want to have to worry about leaking over your other stuff in a bag.

    Most often, I'll skip the bag entirely. If for some reason I actually need a bag, I'll take one and reuse it later. I always keep bags in my car (with an "emergency" backup tiny one in the glove compartment, and I even keep a compact bag in my backpack at all times so I have no excuses.

    I was happy to see this and print-holds as the default settings. Easy impacts are the best!

    Avoiding disposables takes bit bit of extra effort, but it's never asking too much for me to bring a reusable bag to the grocery store.

    I forgot to sign in the last few days, but I found lots of ways to avoid single use items this weekend. Using my coffee thermos, for one!
