Ooo, I'm excited about this Nudge! I feel like I've been gifted a "Get out of jail free" card or the Golden Brick from LEGO Masters! (If you aren't already addicted to that show, check it out -- fun and creative inspiration for all ages!) Let's see what the week presents. Be brave! What Happened: I felt such a sense of FREEDOM as this week set off. I could pass on anything! What wo[...]

Back in October 2022, we Nudged ourselves to "FaceTime with a faraway friend." Similar goal here: make an effort to keep in touch. Do have some topics of conversation in mind, especially if you're talking to a young person who answers in monosyllables. ("How are you?" "Fine." "What did you do today?" "Stuff.") If you're seeing a really young youngster, maybe plan to read them a story[...]

I'm feeling a little pressure with "good." How will I know?! I don't want to pick a book that sucks and be stuck with it! I need to let that stress go and focus on the point of this week's Nudge, which is to do something that breaks up my routine and gives me a break. My notes read "Sit, sip, read. That's it." What Happened: This was 100% treating myself to something nice. I got so[...]
Stumbled across this article, and it felt like an extension of our Nudges: "Meet the people who took an evening class...and changed their life" by Michael Segalov Is there something you're curious about?

This week's Nudge could be as simple as "Take down and put away the Christmas decorations." Check! But when I looked back at my notes for why I included this as Nudge, there's a deeper meaning for me. Our living room is where we--Thor, the dogs, and I--spend most of our time together. It's the heart of our home. I want this special place to feel loved and appreciated, so I'll be thinki[...]
