naima Ali 10/22/2019 3:23 PMI kept it real. I actually dont even think about doing a challenge anymore. It has become normal to me. welcome to the world. -
naima Ali 10/16/2019 10:28 AMso far so good. I even forgot that I was doing a challenge. After first week, It became part of my life to not use plastic bottles, no long showers, and definitely no wasting water. awesome how I transformed. I don't even keep track now, I do it naturally. -

naima Ali 10/09/2019 11:16 PMSo far so good! I wasted less water. and I didn't use any plastic bottle for at least two months, way before this challenge started. as for the papers, I had to print some for my communication class …...other than that I did all my works online and saved papers from going to waste. -
naima Ali 10/07/2019 12:17 AMthere are challenges sometimes, but I guess as long as I try it counts. I live in a house with 7 people, so I really can't control how much food gets wasted, but since I am the chief of the family, I try to cook just enough so it be enough for all of us, and not waste much. I will keep minimizing the food waste, and hopefully I can get this all under control. I went out of my way to eat an expired peanut butter bread the other day. it was expired 2 days ago, but I read an article about how much food gets wasted just because it will expire in hours. they assured that its save to eat unto a week after the expiration date. luckily for me though, it was expired only two days, and I didn't wanna throw it since I didn't look for the expiration before opening it. so I tried to eat it. talk about commitment. -
naima Ali 10/02/2019 9:14 PMI am not all the way to my goal just yet, but I am in progress and hopefully I see a change within this week. -
naima Ali 10/02/2019 9:13 PMSo far so good! I am not all the way to point I wanted to reach, but I am in progress and hopefully it will get better. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use a Reusable MugMaybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reusable one, but it's just hard to make the switch. What stands in your way of making this a habit? By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?
naima Ali 10/02/2019 9:09 PMForgetting the water bottle is 90% what causes me to use plastic water bottles. now I try to remember to carry it with me all the time, even tho I forget it at the car sometimes. Also, drinking from the water fountain helps me stay hydrated without using a plastic bottle. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity Less Screen TimeWhat did you notice in implementing this challenge? Was it hard to choose other activities over screen time? How did you decide to spend your time?
naima Ali 10/02/2019 9:06 PMI didn't watch netflex, or youTube. I felt a little bored, but I filled the time doing something else. I will get used to it soon -
REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity Limit Social MediaSocial media can keep us connected with loved ones, make us laugh, and help us to learn new things. It can also take more time than we realize or intend to give. After doing this action for a few days, how do you feel? What do you notice?
naima Ali 10/02/2019 8:59 PMI felt a bit bored, but I didn't cut down social media all, I just minimized it. instead, I cooked for my family a lot, I watched documentaries, I listened to music and danced. most importantly, I did my homework's.
