Christmas Greetings!
I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Today has been quite busy and I didn’t have a chance to write a normal entry. I did, however, get rid of a broken motherboard that was taking up space. I’m counting that towards my goal of selling an item a day.
Goal #1 – Sell one item a day
I will start my list of goals with a simple one. I will sell at least one item a day, mostly on eBay. We have so much excess in our lives, including belongings we never use. It is best to shed ourselves of these items as they are meaningless. Spend the money on something you can use!
First item: 14 DVDs. I have a huge collection of DVDs … that I don’t watch. It seems I always watch the same 20 or so movies over and over. The rest have been viewed once or never! I sold off a large portion of my collection months ago, a few box sets last week, and now some more individual movies.
Fact or fiction?
For the next few days I’ll be posting entries relating to this site, my thought processes, and my philosophy. That way future posts will make much more sense.
A major issue I have with blogs and society in general is the lack of real scientific sources. Someone will make a statement, such as “3% of adults have served time in prision.” The problem is that they can’t backup their fact or statistic with a valid source. They say something like “I heard it on the news” or “a friend told me.” Both of these sources are not valid! In order to be a responsible person you must state the true source.
