HOPE AND THE MAGNOLIA

Yesterday, I rushed out and had to get the ingredients to make home-made Shwarma Kebab inspired by the works of The Wicked Kitchen, plus the smoked seasoned tofu with melted cheese was pretty damn good.

No animals were harmed in making this food.🙂

Hello and HAPPY MONDAY! I hope you are well.

UPDATE ON THE APP!

It is undergoing a redesign to make it as SIMPLE and as EASY TO USE as possible. Check out the new Habit Tracker.

I am facing some speed issues, which I've got some ideas about plus
.. the app is still only available on Google Play.

If you get a chance, please feel free to download, I'd love to know what you think.

Take care, Mulk.

Synchronicity is the coincidence of events that appear meaningful and intertwined.

Whether I am reading too much into events or not, I will take it.

As I sit here, redesigning the habit tracker screen on my app, a video in the background tells me that perfection is the enermy of good.

Can you relate to this statement?

We can somtimes put pressure on ourselves to be perfect when really, we should just be looking to improve over time.

"Improving over time" is what go my attention.

Can you find the answer to this question right now? Am I getting better at this? Am I going in the right direction? What is the trend?

For me, I was tracking habits on paper and saw that I wasn't as good as I thought I was at many things, but it was a start. A step in the direction to greater self-awareness and a subject for another post.

Today, this means adding a simple number to the app's design and I have it.

Thanks for reading, have a great day.

App store images for the app. Fingers crossed, it will be available next week!

How often do you ask yourself the question, how do I feel today? This one technique helps me to stay present.

One week to go before I launch my health new app.

Great things can happen from small habits.

If you didn't catch it, here's the Habit Tracker screen from my new health coaching app. (Updated with a button to Setup Habits rather than text).

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

In yesterday's demo video, I skipped over an issue with the progress bar.

It's now fixed.

I shall be giving a demo of my new health app...this afternoon!

I am looking for beta testers for my health app.

If you are interested in checking it out and providing feedback, please send me a message. Available for both iOS and Android.

I had this idea for an app about 15 years ago.

And it's coming out very soon for both iOs and Android, so watch this space for more details.

Happy Monday! I hope you're well. Join me in conversation with Joanie Veage at 2pm today about her amazing book!

WHEN DID YOU LAST EAT GREEN VEG?

I now understand, when growing up, why we ate lots of vegetable curries including okra and spinach (saag).

Research conducted by Organic UK in 2018 revealed that three-quarters of Britons go without green vegetables on their plate for longer than a week and 20% had not eaten a single green vegetable for longer than a month.
