Will you try something new, for 30 days?

As soon as we move to Oregon (next week!) I plan on commuting to work by bicycle, which was impossible in San Diego.

@crisw, let us know how it goes!

I’d try to do something different for my wife, something out of the ordinary, to delight and surprise her——maybe a spur-of-the-moment trip somewhere or a new shiny ring.

This sounds like something I used to do and would like to do again. Trying new things, even things you once thought you hated, are a great mind work out. You can learn a lot.

I’d like to start walking every day.

Ballroom dancing.

I’m doing it now. Day 14 of fostering a demanding stray cat that meows all night in her room and wakes me up at 4:30am. terrorizes my other cat if they are not kept completely with no contact whatsoever and escapes every chance she gets inspite of frequent visits.

My patience is wearing thin and she is scheduled to go to a new home again next Thurs.

That will be day 18…can I skip the rest of the 30 days, pleeease!

I think what I will do differently next is to take a 30 day vacation. lol

I’d love to get in the habit of daily exercise, or even remembering to take a multivitamin every day for a month. But I know me. About day three I’ll find a reason to say “eh, fuck it” then never convince myself to start again.

I suck at promises to myself.

I like this idea very much and I have a few things in mind that I will try :)

This question is great timing for me. I need to go back to better eating habits. I am going to think of a few rules to follow, write them down, and commit to 30 days.

I think I will try doing yoga every day for thirty days. I’ve been wanting to do something about my posture, and I’ve heard yoga can help. (Does it not count if I’ve done yoga often in the past but not for a while?)

@athenasgriffin You get my vote for doing yoga again! I have been doing the same as of late and the effects are amazing!

Isn’t that the point of Lent? (grin)

Uhh, I’d like to try to get my entire house decluttered and exactly the way i want it in 30 days.

In about 30 days, I get my first paycheck in 3 months—yay!

I’ve been pretty adamant about getting my classwork done lately. It doesn’t sound like doing something different, but in comparison to my normal habits (doing work late the night before), it’s really something! I’ve been spending hours every day just sitting and getting things done.
Once my workload eases up though (if), I’d like to try doing something crafty every day. I think if I draw or work on my sewing every single day for a few weeks, whether I want to or not, it will eventually become habit and I’ll just have to improve.

@linguaphile, YEAH!!! I know paychecks are great, I used to get paychecks. ;0)

I once tried to login to Fluther for 30 days…

I’ve been a user for three years, and STILL haven’t gotten the 30 day award. There’s always one day that screws me up.
