So the first week is done and (if I finish this post!), a 100% successful week of completing all my daily nudges. Doing the three things I know I should do regularly, they will make a difference, they are important – but somehow I never have enough time or something else crops up or I’m […]
Continue ReadingWeek 2 of my #nudge plan and other than a two-day dip (which I’m conveniently blaming on feeling the effects of Covid Jab#2), all still on track.
