Many people enjoy the everyday same old routine of shaving, not myself. I get bored very quickly with the same routine over and over. The other day while bored shaving my thoughts went to why rinse the lather off the blade and use new. So I decided to reapply the lather from the blade to my face using it like a spatula. It amazed me how much more satisfying mentally that this made may shave. I had to activate my brain cells and actually think about what I was doing. The resulting shave was not any better or worse than my normal routine and I had a brush full of soap at the ready so saving lather doesn't gain anything. But rather than being half asleep, having to wake up and pay attention to what I was doing is a great start to my day. I am going to start doing this every few days to break up my routine. I suppose in a while this will become routine and then I will have to try and change it again.
