gg-to-slowing-down-cover We at ReadyMade are proud to announce that we've teamed up with our friends at GOOD to coauthor a special section of GOOD's Winter 2010 issue. The theme of the issue is "Slow Down: Perspectives on a smarter, better, and slower future." Now, we ReadyMakers may be industrious, we also love nothing more than a good relax, so we were more than happy to pitch in with instructions and encouragement on ten techniques designed to help you take it easy. You can read the entire "GOOD (and ReadyMade) Guide To Slowing Down" online at GOOD's site. Some of the projects in the package had their beginnings right here on this blog If you care to dig a little deeper, here are links to the original musings that led to some of the slowing-down projects in GOOD. 1. Eliminate Something ("A Week Without Plastic") 2. Build an Indoor Stoop ("Still Dreaming of an Interior Stoop") 3. Take Time to Still Your Mind ("Get High Now Officially Available") 4. Build a Backyard Dumpster Pool ("Dumpster Diving") 8. Watch Your Garden Grow ("Crowdsourcing the Cottage Garden") 9. Make Yourself a Place to Escape ("Weekend Warriors: Mexican Swinging Bed Thing") Read happily, and not too fast. Remember: it's quality over quantity.
