The 30 Day Premise...

To help you get an idea of what this "30 Day Challenge" thing is about, let me tell you a little bit about myself, my philosphy, and where this idea came from:

• I am all about self-improvement. Life is a journey and there's always room to grow. Why not continually push ourselves?
• As much as I like challenges, I'm not very good at the whole self-discipline thing. I rely heavily on the support of others.
• I like to describe myself as "curious" and "passionate"--those are nice ways of saying that I have a lot of interests that change frequently.

So, that's basically it. My plan is to take on various thirty-day challenges over the next few months (only my first one is decided at this point--I'll be looking for suggestions for future challenges) and share my journey with you.
Hopefully you'll join me on this adventure:

• Take on the challenges with me! ("The more the merrier" and "there's power in numbers" are more cliches that I believe in...)
• Encourage me (yup, I'm straight up asking for it)--give me ideas, recipes, words of encouragement, your experience, information sources, etc. Please, please, please!
• Just follow me and laugh at me (or argue). I'm okay with that.
• Be inspired...? Make your own challenges--let my successes (and/or failures) inspire you to find your own success. I realize that's pretty egotistical of me (especially since I haven't even started my first 30 day challenge--maybe you should wait on this one until I actually complete a few challenges, now that I think about it).

I'll be taking on my first challenge 1 December--exactly two weeks from today. (Yeah, I'm also a bit impatient--no waiting until 1 January for me!) Until then, I'll be sharing a bit more info about me, my plan, and my preparation for my first challenge.


Let's get this party started!
