I am new to the blogging world and haven't even really read one before...
But I was on one of my favorite websites about a show that I love and the show is winding up for the season and someone asked - What are we all going to do with the free time we'll have after this ends? Another poster added that she would like to start a 100 day challenge to herself. And this is where this has started. She posted that she would like to exercise everyday, meet a new friend or acquaintance once a week or watch only 1 hour of TV / Internet a day - and the list went on. I started thinking to myself, what if I could do this. What would change in my life?
I am a naturally shy type of person, introvert. It is extremely hard for me to meet new people and to open the doors and let people in. I am my own worst critic. But, I think I would like to try this out and see what happens.
I thought it would be nice to say a 101 day challenge, because on the 101st day I would like to sit and reflect and see if anything has changed from the first. I don't know if I can accomplish everything I would list, but I'm willing to give it a go. No guts no glory!
So here is my list of challenges to myself:
- I would like to try and do some type of exercise everyday. Not meaning that it always means going to a gym. I believe exercise could mean anything like raking the leaves, continuous housework without a break every two minutes...
- Watching only 2 hours of TV everyday - this one will be hard on me. I like my TV. I like to even just have it on while I'm cleaning or with no sound while I'm Reading...
- Once a week - to do something only for me.
- To read the bible at least 20 minutes a day.
- To do something for others - like volunteering. This again - hard for me because that would mean I would have to leave the comfort and safety of my house. True introverts would understand...
