This September here at JarkkoLaine.com we’re celebrating the interestingness of our every day lives and dedicating the month to insanely interested people. If you missed the start, don’t worry: just check out these posts and you’ll be up to speed with the rest of us in no time:
- Insanely Interesting September: Think about what makes this September the most interesting for you so far, write about it, and share it with the rest of us!
- 14 habits to turn your September into the most interesting so far: If you’re not sure how to make most out of this September, check out my 14 well tested tips. Put them into action, and you’re ready to rock.
- Kim, Jason and what children can teach us about living an insanely interesting life: Kim and Jason Kotecki are prime examples of insanely interested people so it was great to have them start this month’s round of interviews. Check out what they have to say about maintaining a childlike world view and enjoying the small things in life.
And then off to the web. A bunch of insanely interesting and fresh links I have found this week:
- Beyond the Elementary, Lesson 3 from Escape Adulthood. Kim Kotecki hands out the “greatest party animal” prize to Kindergarten kids. Check out the post to see how kids always have a reason for celebration and what we can learn from them.
- 10 Big Lessons from Little Kids from Ririan Project. Ririan shares 10 simple but efficient ideas about life that little children understand but we grown ups often forget about. Related to last week’s topic here is one of my favorite tips: “There’s a reason they don’t give credit cards to 8-year-olds. You’re supposed to save up money before you buy a new toy.”
- Series: Ideas From Start to Finish from LifeDev. “I’m a serial dreamer. I love the novelty of new ideas. I love coming up with them, implementing them, and sharing them.” In this series Glen will give serial dreamers advice on actually taking the ideas to completed products, which is often the hardest thing to do for people insanely interested in everything.
- Live Like There’s No Tomorrow from Wise Bread. Related to last week’s personal finances theme, Linsey Knerl tells a true story about the importance of not spending everything you earn. Although today might seem bright, you never know if you’ll still have your job tomorrow.
- Grocery Bike from EcoGeek. This is cool. Something that would be easy for a child to come up with but not that easy for a grown up.
Stay tuned as the Insanely Interesting September continues: Next week we have two more interviews coming up: on Monday I’ll be chatting with Kevin D. Weeks about food and his Personal Chef business, and later next week we’ll meet Audrey, the coffee Sage to hear what makes her insanely interested in coffee.
And of course my regular postings continue every day.
Have a great weekend, and don’t forget to submit your links to the Insanely Interesting September blog carnival!
