Please support me in my quest to become a more well-rounded person with a fulfilling and enriched way of living. This years 2010 resolution is designed to pursue just that cause. Many New Years resolutions die out as soon as the christmas tree gets tossed into the trash heap. This year, I propose to take on a series of 12 30 day challenges, all with the intention of creating a richer, healthier existence for myself. While some goals seem less ambitious than others, these are the pursuits I am interested in completing within this coming year. The ultimate goal being that I carry these challenges into my everyday life throughout 2010 and beyond. Follow along as I blog about my quest. Lets see how far I make it!!!

Proposed Challenges:

JANUARY: Dedicate self to finding full time work (portfolio work and networking)
FEBRUARY: No Soda
MARCH: Exercise
APRIL: Start a new blog I've been thinking about thanks to Peter Ross
MAY: Floss
JUNE: Love Life
JULY: No TV
AUGUST: Meditate
SEPTEMBER: Eat within 100 Miles
OCTOBER: Money Management/debt repayment/savings
NOVEMBER: Read
DECEMBER: Sing

Total failure

Okay, this is the one month I completely gave up on.  It is somehow the most daunting idea, this "exercise" thing.  I used to love to work out.  Running was my meditation, my therapy, but now it just seems painful.  I come up with a million reasons not to run the moment I decide to go out.  
And just now I am realizing that just because I am supposed to be exercising, this doesn't necessarily mean running.  I have to get that out of my head, because that is the thing I dread the most.
As I said before, I will continue this challenge into the next month.   And I think the only way to get out of my non-committal rut is to design some sort of a schedule with different kinds of work-outs, and maybe throw a day or two of running in for fun, as it will be easier to adhere to something more concrete.  So, tomorrow is DAY 1!  I will post my schedule for week 1 and fit in my first workout.... that seems too hard already....
