Two years ago, I invited friends and family to join me for an eight week
"Happy Holidays Challenge." We had a website, winners with prize money and such. I got mixed reviews from those who participated in the challenge with me so when I decided to do another one this year, I decided to go it alone. I started on Sunday and will finish on December 23. I decided to choose 8 things I want to improve or accomplish. I don't really have a way to track my success this time. I am just hoping that the extra focus will help me make good choices over the next two months. I tried to make the challenge filled with things I do instead of things I can't do. For example, while I know I should eliminate sugar from my diet, I am instead trying to increase my vegetable intake. If you would like to join me, I would love to have some company in the journey. Choose your own 8 challenge items and come along for the ride.

when i saw the title of this post i just thought to myself, "NOOOOOO!!!" but this year's format is much better, i think.
Great ideas, I'll have to think about it. Written goals are a good thing.
I'm all about that sort of things, but have to think whether I'd commit during this busy/crazy time of year. Perhaps that is a reason to commit.
