February Reflection

1. Reading books

This month I managed to finish five books -two in English and three in Japanese. It took a while to finish Attenborough (2020) because I looked up almost all vocabulary that I wasn't sure of. I haven't read a book in English this way for a while, but can confirm that it is not so good for me as I easily loose motivations to keep reading, while from time to time I felt good when I could confirm meanings of words. So here is a note for me.. intensive reading is only for a very short reading such as news articles and a chapter of a book, not for an entire book!

I also remembered that I have a Kindle with which I can download e-books from Amazon UK. With this device, it will be much easier to look up words.

Books I read:

本の著者・タイトル・出版社 値段
Meik Wiking (2016). The Little Book of HYGGE -The Danish way to Live Well. Penguin Life. Free (Libby)
中山芳一(2018). 『学力で測れない非認知能力が子どもを伸ばす』. 東京書籍. Free (Amazon Prime JP)
伊藤美佳(2020). 『マンガでよくわかるモンテッソ―リ教育×ハーバード式子どもの才能の伸ばし方』. かんき出版. Free (Amazon Prime JP)
David Attenborough (2020) A Life on Our Planet -My Witness Statement and a Vision for the Future. Witness Books. £13.60
アンデシュ・ハンセン(2020). 『スマホ脳』. 新潮社. 970 yen

2. Creating my personal website

I have written only three notes this month, mainly because 1) I took so long to finish Attenborough (2020) and 2) I was a little addicted to YouTube for the first half of February. In March, I aim to write at least one note per week to reflect my activities. It seems like Monday morning is the best time for me.

3. Start preparation for our brewing business

I haven't done much in this area, though I learnt about the Doughnut Economics of which framework might be good guidelines for our business planning. I aim to read about it in a book during March.

I assume there aren't many things I could do in this area at the moment, so perhaps I should more focus on managing and de-cluttering our house.

4. Own less

I have just missed the charity collection service this morning so there are still bags of clothes and shoes. They must go during March!

Now that the weather is much warmer, I shall clean my bike and see if it's sell-able.
