It really wasn\u2019t doing anything for me but making me make a list of what I needed after my month was up. Oh well. I did learn that I\u2019m pretty good with money (at least for 11 days) \u2013 I didn\u2019t want to buy anything frivolous just stuff for my house, my dog and 2 cats.<br \/>\nJust because I quit doing my experiment it doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m a failure. I tried something, it didn\u2019t work, so I\u2019m moving on. If being afraid of failure makes you not try something new, GET OVER IT! Change can be fun and exciting and you can always quit if you don\u2019t like it.<br \/>\nI learn some interesting information last night \u2013 evidently, it\u2019s very difficult for adults to learn new things, not because the mind won\u2019t let us but just because we won\u2019t do it. How boring is that? If I didn\u2019t learn new stuff I would go crazy and life would be so boring.<br \/>\nThis is the best time of our lives, we should be learning a new skill, a new sport, a new craft, ANYTHING! Go out and learn something new this week! I\u2019m going to learn how to remove hardwood flooring from on top of hardwood flooring!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay, so after 11 days of not spending extraneous money I\u2019m giving up!
