An Unexpected Discovery: Rethinking My Commute

Hi Friends!

I recently had an eye-opening experience that made me question a long-held assumption. It all started when I had to take the bus to work because my wife needed our car. Here's what surprised me:

1. Convenience: I realized there are two bus stops right outside my house that I pass on my daily walks with Sago.

2. Efficiency: Sometimes, it's even quicker than driving, thanks to bus lanes and HOV lanes during rush hour.

3. Cost-Effective: I found myself saving on gas and parking.

4. Productivity: The biggest surprise? I could use my 30minute commute for work, adding up to about 4 hours of productive time over a week.

This experience made me realize how easy it is to get stuck in habits without questioning them. I had always assumed driving was the best option for me as a professional, but this change in routine showed me otherwise.

Of course, I know my situation is unique. Many cities, especially in America, don't have efficient public transit. But it got me thinking: What other assumptions might I be making without realizing it?

I'm curious about your experiences. Have you ever had a moment where changing your routine led to an unexpected benefit? Or are there any habits you've been meaning to reconsider?

Until next time, here's to keeping an open mind!

P.S. Sometimes, a change in perspective can reveal opportunities we didn't see before. What might you see differently this week?
