THINKS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY OR SMILE

Reflections:

I started with a completely different idea as I usually do, but ended up with a more minimalistic design. It was a mental excercise, I enjoyed doing it.

I decide to work with text because it is what strikes me the most

PERSONAL HABIT: doing things that made me happy, depending on how many times I did it a week, the work is bigger (one week tracked )

INSTRUCTIONS: Quick, simple, click the canvas and see what I do the most that makes me happy

WHY? I believe that we should SIMPLY do the things that make us happy, that is why I made it simple to see and understand

MY LIST

Music, goodies, healthies, coffee!, frendzz, fit, hoodie, froyo, journal, do not disturb, I AM, gym, sleeping beauty, vivid dream, movie, LOL, hot bath, Listen to music: @@@@@@@@@ @@@@@@ @@@@@@ @@@@@@@@@ @@ Eat food I crave: @@ @ @@ @@@@ Eat healthy food: @ @ @@ @ Drink coffee: @@ @ @ @ @ See a friend: @@ @ @@@ @@@@ @@ Wear a cool outfit: @ @ @ @ @@ Wear sweatpants: @ @@ @ Eat frozen yogurt: @ @ Write on my journal: @ @ @ Phone on do not disturb: @@ @ @@@ Think of a compliment for myself: @ @@ @@ Go to the gym: @ @ @ Sleep early: @ @ Remember my dream: @ @ Watch movies: @ @@ @ @ @ Laugh: @ @@@@ @@@@@@ Hot bath: @ @ @ @ @@ Listen or make a joke: @ @@@ @@@@@ @

The list was very disorganized, that this made me realize the importance of organizing data so I can use it easily. I will be tracking this for longer because it made me realize that sometimes I do not do thing that I want. And if life is so short, why do other things than that?

I feel like the complexity mental excersise is not seen in the data, it is very hard to keep track of so many things at once, that I believe some of them may even be slightly off that what they should be.
