Just 15 Minutes

As a general rule I don't read featured or sponsored posts.  As in I don't, ever.  However last week I was bored & had already read all of the blogs that I follow for the day & I saw one that said "How Changing Just 1% Of Your Day Can Completely Transform Your Life"  I was intrigued.

In case you don't want to read it here are the cliff notes.

There are 1440 minutes in every day.

15 minutes is about 1% of your day.

If you dedicated 15 minutes to something (writing, praying, meditating, whatever) how would your life change...

The guy in the article started writing 15 minutes a day which led to him writing multiple books.

The article got me thinking.  I've been saying for YEARS that I want to learn to play guitar, & then I don't.  I got my first electric guitar at 15.  I bought my first acoustic guitar around 24/25.  A few years ago I won a signed acoustic guitar.  Guess how many of them I can play?  That's right.  Zero.

A few days before I read the article I actually downloaded an app to help me learn, I also found a real human who said they'd teach me too.  I already used the app to tune my guitar & did part of a lesson, Nash was not pleased with my lack of skills.  But what if I really did start practicing?

So because I don't give myself enough goals (insert sarcasm here) I plan on attempting this.  For just 15 minutes a day, I'm going to start playing guitar using the app I downloaded.

What would you choose to dedicate 15 minutes a day to to change your life?
