Behind the 30 Day Challenge

While I was slacking a little from work looking for some motivation, I came across a very great site: Marc and Angel Hack Life.  There are tons of articles in the form of lists that are motivating, uplifting and inspirational.  The one article that stood out for me was: "30 Challenges for 30 Days of Growth".  I am constantly looking for ways to improve, expand, and grow so i was, without any doubt, up for the "challenge".  If you know me, you know that I sometimes like to bite off more than I can chew, so why just pick one!  I plan to take on the following:

  1. Read one chapter of a good book every day (Book still to be chosen).
  2. Every morning, watch or read something that inspires you. (Can leverage my daily quotes app for this)
  3. Spend 10 minutes every evening reflecting on what went well. (Can leverage this blog to reflect)
  4. Document every day with one photograph and one paragraph (Hence, this blog and it's chosen title)
Since the move (from NY to FL), I have found myself contemplating and appreciating the little things in life.  Like: having a roof over my head, being employed, being happily married (of course my marriage isn't perfect by any means, but appreciating the good and how very much it outweighs any of the so called "bad") being loved, having the sun in my face, even hugs and kisses, but most importantly, having a family!!!

The last one is what I am most grateful for today.  Just look at what I woke up to this morning, my beautiful FAMILY.  


So I would say my day was off to a great start despite the cloudiness outside.  I spent some nice quality time walking Luke today.  I sneaked in a few hugs and kisses with the hubster and did a couple of analytical favors for some colleagues today.  Yup it was a great day.  Let's see what tomorrow will bring.
