    my challenges for today went well. I could complete my actions timely as well.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Health Eliminate Toxic Plastics
    What single-use items (e.g. straws, coffee cups, vegetable bags, plastic bags) do you regularly use? What could be substituted instead?

    I was using plastic bags while going for market, but i was changed that habit earlier and i will be using only clothe bags while go for vegetables.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Health Exercise Daily
    How can you incorporate other personal values (like quality time with friends or spending time in nature) into your exercise routine?

    Most of the time, I do exercise along with my son in the room. He will be talking with me while i was doing workout, he will render some help in terms of  bringing me some things if i need suddenly (towel, water bottle etc). I think, in this way i incorporate personal value into my exercise regularly.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use Reusable Bags
    What do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you or aren't allowed to use the one you brought? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?

    I have a habit of bringing stainless steel utensils when i go for buying meat. In that way, I am sure i reduce the usage of plastic bags. (For a week i will go for 4days to chicken shop.. lol)
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Health Reduce Refined Sugar
    Before you started this challenge, did you think you were 'addicted' to sugar? How do you feel now?

    Generally i dont use white sugar. I use little bit of palm sugar. But after this challenge i completely stop using any kind of sugars in any drinks.
