I wasn’t expecting it. In my 12 years of research on 11,000 pieces of data, I did not interview one person who had described themselves as joyful, who also did not actively practice gratitude. A key part of this statement is that gratitude is an active practice.https://www.johnbooze.com/post/best-x-is-the-one-you-use/Tue, 07 Sep 2021 08:09:27 -0700https://www.johnbooze.com/post/best-x-is-the-one-you-use/Bringing a Bike on a Trip One of my joys in life is riding a bicycle. Another joy is travel - especially road trips. Having a bike available when exploring a new place is fantastic. The two really go together like peanut butter and jelly. Drive the car to reach an exciting new place. Ride the bike to experience the details. I bought a bike rack for my car to enable this combination.https://www.johnbooze.com/post/the-importance-of-walking/Tue, 27 Jul 2021 07:27:14 -0700https://www.johnbooze.com/post/the-importance-of-walking/Pre-pandemic, I commuted via a bus. There was daily walking to and from the bus stop. A minimum of 1.5 miles a day. However, with work from home my “commute” is no more than 30 steps. And that difference holds true for all the little activities throughout the day. No longer the couple minutes to the cafeteria which included a flight of stairs. Getting to a meeting room? Now just a click of a button.
