“You are not stuck where you are unless you decide to be.” <\/strong><\/p>\n

(Quote From Everyday Wisdom by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer)<\/p>\n

How true is this?\u00a0<\/p>\n

Many times, it’s easy to get stuck in routines, the day to day, the mundane, the easy.<\/p>\n

To keep things fresh and interesting, I try to add in something new or inspirational every week.<\/p>\n

Here are a few examples<\/a>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

-I’m left handed so sometimes I use my right hand for simple tasks. This challenges my brain and fine motor skills.<\/p>\n

-I drive a different road to work or I walk a different street home.<\/p>\n

-In each meal I put in something unexpected, such as a piece of chocolate in a salad or a sprinkle of coconut over my stir-fry. I have unique food tastes so this may not work for everyone!<\/p>\n

– Instead of my usual genre of music or type of book, I try something completely new. Sometimes I like the change other times I dislike it, either way I’ve broadened my knowledge.<\/p>\n

How do you mix up your days and challenge yourself?<\/strong><\/p>\n
