Welcome to Citizen Humble.
Every super-hero has an origin story. I have never found myself a hero, but I know what they are. I will be no Kick Ass, no Batman. I will be unsung. What kind of hero is that? Doing the rotten jobs anyway; taking responsibility and power; leading Destiny. This will be my chronicle of becoming a citizen. Like it or not, I must accept the world as it is before I can remake it as it should be. Join me in this experiment for the next thirty days of simple journey in an attempt to meet my own standards so I can practice what I preach.
I have picked thirty days to echo Supersize Me, and "Thirty Days", and because anything I do thirty times becomes a habit. My first priority is to establish these habits. To others, they seem mundane, but for me they represent a baseline of behavior I can respect and support. Aside from addressing health, livelihood, chores and personal obligations, I intend to write three to five hundred words here each day, journaling my journeying.
I intend to master these behaviors through systematic repetition and checklisting. I am determined to reduce spending to near zero, to develop web skills, and to pursue writing, painting, creating as an avocation. I don't know what you will think, but I have to begin, so here it is. Come back every few days and see how I have progressed. Maybe I can be a bit of inspiration, as others are to me.
