I’ve never known much about Benjamin Franklin, and frankly (yes, another p\u00fcn) still don’t. boingboing.net<\/a> had an item about him today, and how he compiled a list of 13 virtues<\/a> which he tried to live by – each day ticking off what he’d done wrong.<\/p>\n

I thought the idea was cute, and it fits very well into my own obsessive list-making. So of course I had to make one myself.
\nHe lists chastity<\/i> as one of the virtues (as he puts it “rarely use venery but for health or offspring<\/i>“) and I really don’t agree on that, but am in fact abiding by that rule by default, which of course just goes to show how the remaining years of my no-i’m-not-thirty-yet!<\/i>-age are going to waste\u2026<\/p>\n

1<\/b> Pdf for 1 week (233kb)<\/a><\/p>\n

2<\/b> Same as above, but I’ve crammed three weeks onto one sheet<\/a> (300kb)<\/p>\n

3<\/b> And this one is slightly different, with four columns on one page, more intended to be pasted into a A5-sized notebook or somesuch<\/a> (237kb). Also, it doesn’t contain the definitions of the virtues.<\/p>\n

And you could of course grab all three of the above by downloading all three pdfs in one zip-file (616kb)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
