20 Reasons in 1 Blog Post


Yes sir and ma'am, you are looking at 20 (and a half) dollars in rolled pennies. (29-49) 

At first, I thought that it would be considered cheating to put 20 reasons all with this picture.  Considering that this is over 2000 pennies , I had lots of time to ponder over it.  I eventually decided that each dollar should count as a reason because of the time and labor put into rolling each and every one of them.  

At the end of the day, it took time.  Now it feels totally rewarding.  I feel like just about all things that take time and effort end up being rewarding.  

Time is not all.  Completely coincidentally, I just started reading The Happiness Project (50) by Gretchen Rubin. One of her first tasks that she took on to begin her happiness project was to "tackle a nagging task".  This was one of my many nagging tasks.  

So there you have it.  I really recommend the book and the advice of tackling a nagging task.  Both made me feel happy and accomplished. 

Tackled any nagging tasks lately?  Do you plan to?  Let me know!
