As I began my journey in completing my 20% project for my learning and technology project, my goal was to learn to "live a healthier lifestyle." I began slowly working out on a regular basis and thus decided to change some of my eating habits. Being the "foody" I am, it was difficult to figure out what food substitutions I could make especially when it came to any types of bread and rice! Also, I am at times very reluctant to trying new things so that was also a difficulty I found myself having to overcome. As this semester is coming to an end, I found that yes, slowly but surely making small changes and working towards developing a habit actually works! I can happily say that my eating habits have changed for the better and I find myself wanting to workout even if it’s just for a short 1 mile run. For my digital pedagogy project, I decided to continue on with my 20% project and showcase some of my “cooking skills” and share some of the new recipes/substitutions I have been making.

One part I will share because it is also relevant to my 20% project is the tips Pink gives to "getting (and staying) motivated to exercise.
