Traffic Lights

Time to start changing my behaviour. I am going to experiment with a traffic light system and shortlist of behavioural changes for forthcoming fortnight are:

• RED: Not to work past 5pm (unless imperative to do so)


• GREEN: Blog at least 3 x week (makes me feel better - exercising creative muscle!)


• GREEN: Swim at least once during week - Thursday? Need to sort membership of pool.


• AMBER: Sell Endowment? Look into


• GREEN: Keep track of money spent/ log all expenditure AND make expense claims


• AMBER: Research costs etc for Norseman (to conclude by 27/10)


• RED: Coffee + cake during the week


• RED: Stop personal emails to work address etc


• AMBER: Friendships, start by returning emails, reading Blogs etc (Monday nights?)


• GREEN: Out with Simon M for bike ride on Saturday morning

Two week experiment: prompted by running through red lights earlier in week. Was feeling a bit low after work on Tuesday and drove past line of what I assumed was parked traffic; only to see traffic light on red was cause of queue as I drove past last vehicle...

Maybe should add: GREEN: be more alert to whether stationary cars are parked!
