This post was written for Blog Action Day 2011. Many of us make a big effort to be ‘green’ by doing things like recycling, using the car less and saving energy in the home but did you know that you could do even more for the environment by not eating meat? Being vegetarian may predominantly be a lifestyle choice but there are also some strong eco benefits too that many people are not even aware of.

We seem to be living in the midst of a ‘ME’ generation where all thoughts are for what is in it for oneself. Children are constantly being bombarded by advertising for the newest and latest ‘thing’ and are being swept along by the aggressive consumerism of our times. Children are naturally competitive and this lends itself even more to the idea that they are the only important person around.

Outliers : The Story of Success is a non-fiction book written by Malcolm Gladwell. Throughout the book, Gladwell repeatedly mentions the “10,000-Hour Rule”, claiming that the key to success in any field is, to a large extent, a matter of practicing a specific task for a total of around 10,000 hours. That’s why it’s so important to be clear about what you want.

I know that my last post was all about how I started losing weight again, but I did end up taking a week off. The week of the Financial Blogger Conference was extremely hectic, so I did set Weight Watchers aside for 7 days. That led to me weighing in at 153 on Sunday, October 2nd – that is a gain of about 4 pounds. But that is okay to me. Making a Deal, Hitting the Mark, and Splurging on my Calorie Intake.
