Fifteen to one

🔗Intro

A few days ago I was feeling particularly tired but had a lot of things I wanted to get done that day, so I casually asked my wife "how long do you need to sit before you are rested and can get on with things again". She didn't have an answer, and that makes sense because the answer depends on way too many variables.

The next day I was on a call with a friend and I asked him the same question in the passing, and he blurted out "fifteen minutes". Thinking it was a rather funny (because of how he said it) and definitive answer it kind of stuck with me.

Fast forward a few days and it's Sunday morning and we are doing the No-Internet challenge again, which is a perfect time to sit down and write, and I asked the wife if she was up for another challenge.

The whole family has adopted the No-Internet one without too many complaints so she was game.

🔗The rules

• You can sit for at most 15 minutes at a time.
• After 15 minutes you have to stand up and perform a task before you sit down again.
• Repeat this for seven hours

What qualifies as a task is up to you but I'll share a few examples:

• Clear something away / put something back where it belongs
• Empty the dish washer
• Spend a minute or two petting the family pet, assuming it's alive and also not a tiger.
• Water the plants
• Go for walk

A task doesn't have to be big, but it doesn't have to be small either as long as you don't sit down while you perform it.

🔗Run time

This challenge runs for one day

Feel free to post your summary each day on our Discord!

The format of the post:

Challenge: 15-1
Did you manage: yes / no (only answer "no" if you gave up)

Good luck!
