        Mostly novels in popular genres like fantasy and crime, but some factual literature as well

            Neat! Never heard of 😄 what is it about?
            I usually prefer novels since factual text are not as smooth a read but

              It was a self help cult that was disintegrated and it’s leaders went to prison. Alison Mack from smallville was in it… they used to brand people and the leader was having sex with a lot of his followers. What factual stuff do you read?

      That’s my winning combo as well!

      For exercise, sometimes it’s hard to keep the momentum going, but I try to remind myself that anything is better than nothing. Last month I was aiming really high (for my standards), following my Garmin’s recommendation. Almost never I manage to keep up with that rhythm and I feel a bit deflated about it. But, objectively, because I’m aiming so high, the twice a week I end up managing (one day weight training, one day swimming) is actually not bad at all and already helps immensely with my well being.

      For reading, definitely reducing social media time, especially in the evening and during my commute, is what made the biggest difference to boost my reading. I love not feeling like I’m scrolling my life away 😅
