Friday Thoughts: Goals & Trying Something New

Lately, I have been hooked on TED Talks! This talk is so perfect for the TWLC3 Challenge and a great Friday Thought…

As Matt Cutts says,

The next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot for the next 30 days?

What have you always wanted to try?

As I posted about earlier this week, I want to try a part-time vegan diet.

I love this!! I was thinking earlier about how the problems I had staying committed to TWLC and TWLC2 were in part because it’s such a long time. Maybe if I think about it in terms of shorter 30 day periods it will help! Even if I just did a few 30 day challenges it might keep me focused.

And a note about the Novel in 30 days thing – I did it once but didn’t manage to do it the second time I tried. I already knew I could do it, but I still didn’t accomplish it. Funny how things like that happen!

  I love simple ideas like this. The ones that make you go…”Yeah, that’s so easy” and “Duh! Why didn’t I think of that” at the same time. I feel these are the ideas that can really be life changing. Anyone can do anything for 30 days, if you work at it.
  
  That 30-day Novel thing seems so crazy! Some day maybe when my little Girly is bigger…
  
  Happy Friday Kate!

  Kate, I like the way you think. How would you guys feel about doing a 30 day challenge related to TWLC?
  
  Each month we can each pick something new (they could all be different), check-in with each other and stay accountable. I think you’re right Kate, it’s kind of like what you said in your blog today about starting off great and then “oooh something shiny!”. At least this way we can concentrate on ONE thing all month (drinking a certain amt of water, walking, daily vitamins, etc).
  
  What do you think?

    I’m in on a 30-day challenge! I’ve had an rough last few days in terms of nutrition and exercise. What challenge would you like to do first?
