Funny how I confidently accepted IJ's blog challenge in a heartbeat then suddenly finding myself cowardly thinking twice about it right after. As much as I love tackling challenges like a boss, I have an innate aversion to change. The feeling somehow sprouts from the fact that I learn frustratingly slow and with that, breaking old habits and incorporating new ones are impossible pursuits. Yet almost every wise man (and woman just like IJ) I've met in my life has always reminded me that to become a better version of myself, changes must be made. I'm glad IJ just forced me into doing this by announcing it online. I don't have a choice but to comply, do I? (haha.)
and now that I have come to terms with the need of some changes, I would like to share to you my list. The items may not be considered as "habits". They are important and not-really-important tasks I've been putting off for a very long time. As to why I have chosen to do them, I will explain in my monthly posts. :)
March: Take Muay Thai classes at least twice a week.
April: No fastfood for a month (Oh no!!)
May: Be in the office 10 minutes before the time.
June: Declutter closet and reduce clothes by 15% per week.
July: Social Media Blackout for a month.
August: (fluently) speak 10 Spanish sentences/expressions.
September: Make an investment plan. Implement.
October: Finish a book or two.
November: Make someone happy each week.
December: Travel solo.
Let the challenge begin.
(PS. Yen, I've checked out zenhabits.net and now, I'm hooked! Thanks for sharing this.)
