It’s Week 11 of the One Small Change Challenge! This has been a great challenge – some of the changes have definitely been easier to stay on top of than others. Here’s what I’ve taken on so far:
Week 1 – Daily plank routine
Week 2 – Keep my often-cluttered coffee table clutter-free
Week 3 – Increase my daily water intake
Week 4 – On hold
Week 5 – Daily rolling of my very tight quads and hamstrings
Week 6 – Take time each morning to set my plan/intentions for the day
Week 7 – Plan my strength-training workouts
Week 8 – On hold to re-group
Week 9 – Meal planning
Week 10 – Eliminate late afternoon snacking
I was helped a lot with week 10 by grabbing a mug of green tea in the afternoon – it helped me to slow down and be more mindful and stop picking at my sons’ snacks while helping with homework.
So now for week 11 – Turn off the electronics at night. I’ve gotten into the habit of being on my laptop/iPad/phone way too late into the evening – that much screen time makes it tough to wind down. So the goal this week is to unplug earlier and get some much needed sleep!
Do you find you’re “plugged in” late into the night or are you good about turning your electronics off?
I do admit that I spend a lot of time on my laptop, but when it’s time for bed it’s time for bed! The last time I was up late checking out facebook, I was spoiled on a TV show I just started watching…so that gave me even more incentive to unplug!
Ooooh great change! Sometimes I’ll get back online after dinner then I feel bad. Unplugging is definitely something I need to be more conscious about. Thanks for linking!
I need to get back to some PAPER BOOKS.
when Im plugged in at night it’s to my kindle app.
I’ve taken to reading at night…on my kindle app on my tablet. So no unplugging for me. I have trouble seeing the print on regular books, the kindle app makes it so much easier on my aging eyes. 🙂
You have picked some great changes to make–way to go! I always try to shut down the electronics post-dinner but sometimes, I get sucked in to checking email. Good reminder to stay away from it!
We’re the same way. We both put our iPads and phones on our nightstands when we’re done with them, or we’ll be watching TV right until bed time. This would be a good one for us to take on!
Great job with all the changes!
