REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity Less Screen TimeWhat did you notice in implementing this challenge? Was it hard to choose other activities over screen time? How did you decide to spend your time?
Destiny-Ciara Yano 12/01/2023 9:28 PMWhen I tried to implement change via removing screen time, my already set habits would creep up on me, which was the hardest part about diverting my attention towards other hobbies that I believed were less deserving at the moment. I think this challenge is a lot more meaningful to understand about myself than when I indulge in lack lustered goals people push onto me. Setting a boundary on myself is hard because I crush it almost immediately when I set it, so for the time I spent not being on my phone or computer I was partaking in hobbies I normally never had the time to. It felt different, but I welcomed the change. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity Needs Vs. WantsHow is creativity a necessary ingredient for practicing simplicity?
Destiny-Ciara Yano 12/01/2023 9:23 PMIf we are not creatively finding ways to practice simplicity, it can often lead to boredom and a dull life. Finding ways that can be expressed by yourself through your own ways can help make the practice all more meaningful.
