#inspiration #consistency #100daychallenge
I've been always pretty excited about doing something regular and create a productive habit. 100 Days is a format that seems very good. Could also be a "Drawing each day" or something. Could start as a "The First 20 Hours" format and then do a touch-point on Day 20.
Inspired by Alex Proba's "Poster a Day" project.
[[Consistency beats intensity every time]]
## Process / Setup
> "Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray." – Rumi
1. **Select one irresistible activity** I will do every day for 100 days
1. **What am I passionate about?** What would I like to explore because it intrigues me?
2. **Use what I have.** Utilize what I already have to make this project happen: Camera, computer, iPad, friends, network, existing skills
3. **Prepare for success.** Can I make it work every day even when I'm travelling, I'm outside, or on weekends?
4. **Select my verb.** What is the process, the action that I will take every day for 100 days?
1. Examples: listen, ask, investigate, find, look, dig, discover, help, support, draw, record, publish, connect, visualize, paint, meditate, stabilize
2. Use social media to share your daily progress with a hashtag [[The ONE Thing]]
3. Commit and re-commit to the process when [[doubt and discomfort]] starts to creep in.
