Retrospective Activity; I do not settle with only one

21 Dec 2012 | FunRetro

I have been running retrospective activities for a long time. I really like retrospective activities.

Interesting enough, I have not married with one activity. I try new activities. I brag to my friends about the latest one. Many times I repeat old ones. But I do not settle with only one.

I look around. And I find people that also like many retrospective activities. I also find people that did  settle with one activity (´Well / Not so well´ seems to be the most married type).  They seem happy with the the same routine.

For the ones who like varying retrospective activities, check out FunRetrospectives.com.
