I have been told it takes 21 days to develop a habit. So in the spirit of examining my life I realize there are many good habits I need to form. I have decided to give myself a 30 day challenge. I know 30 days is a cliché time period, but truly it will continue for a longer time. What will I be doing for 30 days straight? Four things actually.
1. Study for the GMAT everyday for 2 hours
2. Go to the gym everyday and workout no less than 30 mins.
3. Write on this blog
4. No alcohol
I have been told this is possible too extreme, and I might be in for a big let down or i am not allowing myself any leeway. My response is these are habits I use to have in the past that I no longer connect with. I might go to the gym for 5 straight days but if I take one day off I won’t return to the gym for 2 weeks. I may study on Tuesday but I won’t open a GMAT book until the following Friday. I chose alcohol just because I find it slows me down the rest of the night or the next day. The discipline is gone and I need to get it back. So for my 1st month I am going a little extreme. Next month I will develop 1 more habit while hopefully keeping these 4 habits.
When will my thirty days begin? On July 8, 2008, and it ends on August 7, 2008.
GlamourGirls I want to hear from you. What habits do you want to develop or change? Maybe we can form a support group to help each other. Send me an email or a comment letting me know what you will be doing for the next thirty days.
