February is almost here. Please don’t ask me where January went, because I have no idea. I did declutter 2,021 items, but other projects have progressed more slowly.
That is behind me now, and I’m looking forward. With only twenty-eight days, February is a great month to complete a daily challenge. You can pick one on-line by googling a topic or design it yourself.
Do you want to cut back on carbs, drink more water, exercise more consistently, or do more planks? This could be a good time to improve your health.
If you want to declutter, you could do the thirty-day challenge (or twenty-eight-day challenge this month.) On day one, you declutter one item. On day two, you declutter two. Each day you declutter the number for that day. By the time you are done, you will have removed over 400 items from your home.
Perhaps your challenge could be connected to a hobby or sport. Make a quilt, study a different chess master each day, or make a new recipe for dinner each night. Pick a project and work on it daily.
I’m doing a flash fiction challenge with Writer’s Digest. They’ll send me a prompt each morning, and I’ll create a story. I enjoy writing flash fiction, and prompts help me get past the resistance of a blank page. (Getting started is often the hardest part of any project.)
Pick a challenge and join me for a fulfilling February. It’s a short month with no high maintenance holidays (although, be careful with Valentine’s Day treats), so it’s a great time to focus on goals. Plus, it’s fun!
