2. Go to a major chain bookstore, and leave notes to future readers in copies of your favorite books

small things you can do to change your perspective

(an ongoing list)

1. Change the height at which you perform everyday tasks. (i.e. brush your teeth while on your knees.)

2. Look under every object you encounter for a week.

3. Wear sunglasses all day (inside and outside). Notice how it feels to take them off.

4. Alter your body somehow so as to impede your motor function slightly. i.e. tie two fingers together.

5. For one day greet everyone you encounter with “top o’ the morning to ya!”

6. Speak through a tube, (paper towel tube).

7. Move frequently used items (i.e. salt and pepper shakers) to places they are not normally found.

8. Place something small behind your ear for an entire day. See if you forget about it. (my husband does this)

9. Cut your food into new and interesting shapes. Arrange your dinner (or your table items) into a “grid” formation.

10. Exclude one vowel from all of your email.

11. For one month create all of your correspondence on an outdated form of technology. (i.e. typewriter, pen & paper, dictaphone).

12. Add something to your name. (“the 3rd”, “the great”, “the illustrious”) Alternate: Add some letters to your name but don’t tell anyone.

13. Sponsor a contest based on an everyday task. (i.e. “Contest for person whose socks stay up consistently”)

By Keri Smith

“‘You’re a rotten driver’, I protested. ‘Either you ought to be more careful, or you oughn’t to drive at all’.
‘I am careful’.
‘No, you’re not’.
‘Well, other people are’, she said lightly.
‘What’s that got to do with it?’
‘They’ll keep out of my way’, she insisted. ‘It takes two to make an accident’.
‘Suppose you met somebody just as careless as yourself’.
‘I hope I never will’, she answered. ‘I hate careless people. That’s why I like you’.” — The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald
