  • 2015 in the hindsight

    2015 is my best year ever in almost all areas of my life. I learned a few good ideas, built a great momentum for my goals, and continued my habit streaks. In October I put everything I have been up to in my /now page. This is the one of the best things I did…

  • Weet-Bix October

    I ate Weet-Bix for breakfast everyday in October. Weet-Bix is a high-fiber, low-sugar, and low-cost breakfast cereal widely available in this part of the world.
