What is the Analytical Tortoise about?

The Analytical Tortoise is about thinking differently, challenging the conventional way of doing things and finding an alternative path that is based in science and observations.

"Discover alternative ways to accomplish the same goals".

It is important to understand the rules.  Why they work and why they don't and knowing which ones are not actually rules.  Once you understand that some beliefs can be bent, broken or ignored, you realize that there are other ways to get at the same goal.

I reference a lot of other peoples content, I have done the research and this is what makes sense to me.  You can see where I am coming from.

I love to hear different view, please leave me a comment.

Why the Analytical Tortoise?

Analytical embraces that I want to understand.  The Tortoise is a reference to the fable that teaches slow and steady wins the race.

The Gym The first time that I got into exercising, I was 21 and I was going to the gym to tone and build muscle.  It was interesting in the way that I went to the gym with a friend and the support of going to the gym together was enough to keep us going.  This lasted for about a year and a half and we definitely built muscle and shaped our bodies.  During that time, I gained predominantly muscle weight and shaped my body in a very stereotypical way.  The problem was that when I stopped going to the gym, the body shaping was undone.  This was a lifestyle change that was unsustainable! Over the next 5 years, I would describe my lifestyl...

1.1 Disposal: Landfill what happens to our trash

1.1 Disposal:  Landfill, what happens to our trash Disposal is the lowest form of waste management, it is what you do with items that cannot be recovered, recycled, reused or avoided entirely.  When you throw anything into the garbage your municipality collects the waste and takes it to the landfill.  It does not get sorted, only piled into the dump and buried. It is important not to throw away any toxic material as it has the potential to get into the water supply.
