Daily Learning: The gift of giving

In case you were wondering no I haven’t stopped my quest to learn something new every day in the month of July, I’ve just been so busy I haven’t taken the time to blog.

Let’s see what fun things have I learned in the past few days …

  • I learned what a hiccupping baby feels like inside my pregnant friend’s belly — that was fun
  • I finished reading The 4 Hour Work Week – great book. For me it wasn’t about working less it’s about getting more work done, and being more efficient with your time.
  • I’m moving in a few days so I’ve been really learning how great it feels to get rid of unnecessary “things”
  • and last but certainly not least I learned about the gift of giving. I went with some friends to a battered women’s shelter and played with the children there for a few hours and left feeling great knowing that we made a difference in their lives. A few days later I went back and donated a bunch of make-up and other things to the mothers there.

  1. I love this idea of spending a month attempting to learn something everyday. And I’m so with you on how god it feels to get rid of random things. After having a garage sale last week and cleaning my closets I felt relieved.

  2. I keep hearing about 4 Hour Work Week. I’m not out of school yet so I’m not sure how much it’ll help me but I’m thinking I should check it out.

    Also, I love the idea of learning one thing every day. I might try it! :D

  3. I love that moving gives me a chance to go through all my stuff and really decide WHAT is worth keeping. It’s so cleansing, I love it.

  4. It’s weird, I never THOUGHT about babies hiccuping before they’re born. That must have been an odd feeling.

  5. I didn’t really like 4-hour workweek so far. I thought the guy sounded somewhat lazy. Just sub this out and go on vaca, sorta vibe. But I need to finish it because I know there’s good stuff in there:)
