Jon Aquino's Mental Garden: New todo-list system: One-Minute Todo List
http://jonaquino.blogspot.com/2012/05/new-todo-list-system-one-minute-todo.html
Jon Aquino's Mental Garden. Saturday, May 19, 2012. New todo-list system: One-Minute Todo List. I was trying a todo-list system called SuperFocus, in which you keep your todos in a notebook, and you must do at least one item on each page before moving on to look at the items on the next page. That tells me that there is something wrong with this system. So I'm trying yet another todo-list system. This one is called the One-Minute Todo List. Here is a link.

Jon Aquino's Mental Garden. Monday, May 21, 2012. Make your own mini Moleskine notebook for (almost) free.

First grab a bunch of paper from your writing pad, and put it on top of the index card:. Thanks and sorry,.

Jon Aquino's Mental Garden: Growly Notes - like OneNote but for Mac
http://jonaquino.blogspot.com/2013/02/growly-notes-like-onenote-but-for-mac.html
Jon Aquino's Mental Garden. Wednesday, February 06, 2013. Growly Notes - like OneNote but for Mac. I'm trying out a free Mac app called Growly Notes. I need a kind of "space" in which to record ideas, and I need it to be organized so I can find it again quickly later. This app may fit the bill. It has a bit of a following. And it's colorful, which is nice. Also see the Lifehacker review. Posted by Jonathan at 2/06/2013 01:13:00 PM. Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. View my complete profile.

http://jonaquino.blogspot.com/2012/10/two-life-changing-questions-to-ask.html
Jon Aquino's Mental Garden. Saturday, October 06, 2012. Two life-changing questions to ask yourself each day. There is a traditional practice of asking oneself the following two questions at the end of each day. It also works great with other people my fiancée and I enjoy asking each other:. 1 What are you most grateful for today? 2 What are you least grateful for today? There are other ways to ask them as well: What increased/drained your energy today? What brought you consolation/desolation today?

Jon Aquino's Mental Garden. Wednesday, March 07, 2012. Jesus had a beard. If the Shroud of Turin. Actually shows the face of Jesus, then it is interesting to note that, yes, Jesus did have a beard, and quite a full one. His face is also stockier and more rectangular than the delicate face we are accustomed to seeing in paintings. The face on the shroud (left) and its photographic negative (right) ( source.

Jon Aquino's Mental Garden: Pine cones open up when you bring them inside
http://jonaquino.blogspot.com/2012/11/pine-cones-open-up-when-you-bring-them.html
Jon Aquino's Mental Garden. Friday, November 23, 2012. Pine cones open up when you bring them inside. My fiancee has been collecting pine cones for room decorations, and one cool thing we discovered is that they open up after you bring them inside. I'm not sure if it's caused by the warmth or the dryness or something else. A day or two after you bring them in, you'll see that they gradually splay open. Evidently they are doing this to expose the seeds inside. Posted by Jonathan at 11/23/2012 07:56:00 AM.

Jon Aquino's Mental Garden. Saturday, March 17, 2012. Tech news recommendation: Hacker News. I gave up on RSS feeds (after many years of tracking dozens of them) because they consumed too much precious time each day. At work I asked for someone to recommend one good news source for tech news. Recommended a great one: Hacker News. It's a great 1-page list of top tech news of the day. I find the items there relevant, to me anyway. Posted by Jonathan at 3/17/2012 11:20:00 AM. At 4/04/2012 8:54 PM.
