Life Experiments

Life can get a stagnant so try one of these life experiments this week:

• Attempt to begin a conversation with a stranger
• Take only cold showers for a week
• Sit in a public place and stare straight ahead for ten minutes
• Make a rule that you’ll reach for your gym clothes as soon as the alarm goes off (no snooze button!)
• Go to work a different way or by a different form of transportation
• Completely rearrange the furniture in your living room or bedroom
• Vary a workout routine by choosing exercises based on dice rolls
• Join a free foreign language meetup (visit meetup.com and search for your choice of language)
• Offer a room of your house for rent on Airbnb.com
• Offer your couch to a traveler on couchsurfing.com
• In a recurring meeting, deliberately choose a different seat
• If you’re usually active in meetings, determine to speak less. If you’re usually silent, speak up!
• Post “Anything I can help you with?” on Facebook, Twitter, or wherever you gather with friends online. Respond to as many answers as you can.
• Laugh out loud in public at something that isn’t funny. See what happens.
• Bring dog treats to the park and give them to strangers (primarily the ones who have dogs)
• Stop carrying an umbrella when it rains. You might get wet, but chances are you won’t melt
