Work on that project every day for 30 days

Goal per member: 1800 minutes per day.

Work 60 minutes everyday on a project for 30 days..

Work on that project every day for 30 days - the 2nd run

This challenge was started by Dru2 because he needed to finish work on his professional music. The original challenge was entitled "Work on that project everyday for 30 days". And had 6 challengers. I hope it is ok with Dru2 and these challengers since I see that "Work on that project everyday for 30 days" is reaching the finish line to take off where he and they leave off. This challenge is therefore beginning - as the 2nd run.

Is your project stuck on the back burner?

  • Improve your writing 
  • Blog
  • Write a novel
  • Create art
  • Practice a musical instrument 
  • Get organized
  • Business planning and materials
  • Clean that room up
  • ...or anything else!

 "Life by the mile is a trial; life by the inch is a cinch!"

 

Whatever your goal, put the Law of Accumulation to work for you! 

 

I challenge you: work with me 60 minutes EVERY DAY for 30 days.

maria_tools.betamaria_tools.betaoops! Day 5
Sorry about that. We're on Day 5. The weekend threw me off. Good luck and good working on both your projects!
maria_tools.betamaria_tools.betaDay 4

Hi mylilshindiggy,

 

I know the feeling :)

 

And we're absolutely here for you the next 30 days.

 

I'll even start out today with a tip. 

 

I've found that the hardest part for me is just sitting down infront of the computer and doing the work. I feel there are so many other things that are more exciting and fun to do like listening to music or watching tv or surfing the net (if I've finally gotten myself to sit down infront of my computer). It's the starting (the opening of the project and beginning work on it) everyday that seems to be my biggest problem.

 

Once I'm actually doing it, I get into it, and the time whizzes by.

 

So a tip that I use is that I say to myself that everyday minute - now matter how big or small - is better than no minutes at all.

 

So to get myself to sit down infront of the computer to work I usually say to myself that I will work for 10-20 min. (cause a whole hour can sometimes seem too much and a bit daunting). So just 10-20 minutes I say to myself. And then it doesn't seem like such a big deal. And when I'm at it and into it, then the rest of the hour just seems to follow naturally.

 

And a tip #2.

 

Because I must also admit that there are times when I too look at the watch to see how much time is left. But I've found that setting an alarm really helps me out. 

 

The set deadline (1 hour) is really useful in that sense.

 

And seeing how much time is left also seems to motivate me to use the entire hour to work intensively - and not surf the net for example, even though I want to at times, I just say to myself that I can always do that afterwards.

 

So here are my 2 tips today- I hope they're useful if but just a little bit.

 

Thanks for the reply!

 

Now we just have to hear from zenda on what her project is this month.

 

Looking forward to talking with you two again soon! :)

 

bye for now,

Maria

Hi mylilshindiggy and zenda! :)

 

We're keeping this challenge. So you guys don't have to worry at all anymore. So now it's just up to us to do the things we gotta do the next 30 days. It's going to be a great group and a great motivation for us all I promise you that.

 

And I'm sorry for the confusion with the duplicates. I was reffering to the earliest challenge -the one at the bottom- just simply because I was so eager to get started. But then I could see that all of you had joined the one on the top, so that's the one we're keeping. It really doesn't matter which one to be honest. As long as you guys are there :)

 

And thanks Zenda for the tip. I've done like you said and reported the bug on each of the pages. So hopefully soon they'll be deleted.

 

Well, so let's get started. Do tell me what your 30-day projects are. And I'll be here for you guys the entire time. To nudge you, to support you, to cheer for you, to motivate you, whatever we need to get us all through to the finish line.

 

Looking forward to "seeing" you all here everyday. And to track our progress together. See you! :)

 

bye for now,

Maria :)
which challenge to keep?

my friend wordbird is so helpful but there is an easy way to do this.  Since we are signed into this version lets continue. All you need to do with the other two is click on the report a bug in the other two versions a dialog box opens up and tell them its a duplicate and to remove as soon as possible and the technical tools staff will do this when they get a chance.  I did that for another challenge it took a minute but it got done. We can continue here and not worry.

WordbirdWordbirdwhich challenge to keep?
once the challenge begins people cannot join it. They cannot go to your earlier challenge.  So either you keep THIS version with the people who joined; or you keep the earliest one. Please let me know which. 
maria_tools.betamaria_tools.betaHere's my project...

Let me get started by telling you about my own project.

 

I study film at the university, and for one of my exams I had to make a short film. I finished the film on time and went to my exam and all, so that's all over and done with.

 

However, now I have to burn the film to a number of dvds and send a copy to everyone who had helped me out on it. The version I gave to the school was good but not the best due to the tight deadline. There are therefore still some mistakes I have to sort out here and there. So that I can give everyone a good and solid copy.

 

And it's these last finishing touches that are so difficult to complete. Because they still take a good amount of hours...and it's summer vacation...well, you know the rest.

 

So my project is to finish this short film and send a copy to everyone who helped me on it by the end of these 30 days.

 

So that's it for me

 

Please do write a couple of words telling me about each of yours. Really looking forward to hearing them. :)

 

Thanks for joining again! I'll be talking to you again soon! :)

 

bye for now,

Maria :)
maria_tools.betamaria_tools.betaWelcome!

Welcome everyone!

 

Great to see that there are others who also need to get something done within the next 30 days.

 

I'm really happy to see that I'm not alone on this one.

 

It's really great to have other people along for the ride.

 

Looking forward to getting to know each of you. And looking forward to hearing what sorts of projects you will be up to during the next 30 days.

 

Take care!

 

By for now :)
