Here we are on day one of our 21 day Habit forming challenge. Basically what we are doing is picking something we want to change, add, or get rid of in our lives to make ourselves better! We can’t really change others in our lives, but we can definitely change ourselves. So today is a new day!! Embrace it.
the rules are:
* pick a habit you want to have.
* practice that habit for 21 days.
* journal, create a LO, blog, do an art journal page, write a post it note quickie, something written that says what you did each day.
* post a comment here each day that you did what you wanted to (or you didn’t! It’s okay to fail…that’s where we learn the most!!)
* IF YOU POST EVERYDAY for a week, you will be entered into a drawing for one of two prizes! If you are a digi-scrapper, you will be entered into the drawing for a 5$ GC at OScraps.com. If you are a paper scrapper, you will be entered into the drawing for a FREE STAMP SET from Stampin’ Up!!! yay!!! This is weekly, folks!
* So, don’t forget to post your comments here!! There will be two drawings for three weeks! That is 6 FREEBIES!!! YAY!!!
Okay, so my habit is quiet time! Did you figure that out from yesterday’s clue. I am in desperate need of my quiet time in the afternoon, but I always let the time get away from me. My goal is to step away from my computer, my home responsibilities for 30 mins each afternoon (which we fondly refer to as the “bewitching hour!!”) and read, pray, worship with the guitar…something quiet and refreshing. Sounds heavenly, doesn’t it? See? habits can be great!!! LOL!!
and for your inspiration, a picture! this inspires me!! What inspires you to keep on?
Hi, I signed in to typepad as slacker c because I’m so lazy and use the computer to avoid doing other things! So I’m going to try to break my habit of spending so much time in the am on my computer playing games. email is ok, cause I don’t get that much.
Sally, you are really inspiring me. I think I’d like to join – my habit is going to be exercise. We have a stupid elliptical machine, I could hop on that sucker. Or go for a walk with the kids. I’m gonna do this, girl!!!
I’m in!!! I am going to take the challenge!!! My goal is to set aside some me non-computer time every night. Even if it is for only 10 minutes. Just so I can rejuvenate myself π Take a walk, a bubble bath or even read a book! I tend to put everyone else first so this will be good for me.
Sally,
I so need this!!! My habit is to exercise everyday! I need to get back in shape and now IS the time!
Sally!!!
I’m going to start a journal on a new blog…just for me…just for my family…no scrapbook business allowed. I was going to do a daily pic a day…

I already picked out my habit— and I “practiced” last night.
I am gonna do sit ups every night- b/c I want a toned tummy for vacation *winks*
Ok – I did day 1! I did 20 minutes on the elliptical – I had set a goal of 15 minutes so I exceeded my goal! YAY!

Oh, Sally! You so motivate me! I would like to try to read every night. I used to be a big reader, but I haven’t been doing it on a consistent basis except for fun. I have a stack of books waiting for me!
day 2- today I exercised by walking around shopping!
