Challenge and Change (Part Deux) Habits 2 Goals: The Habit Factor® Podcast with Martin Grunburg
-
- Self-Improvement
"Nobody improves the world without first improving themselves."
On this in-between-seasons Mind Bullet Monday, we discuss a topic that helped spur the Habit Factor itself: challenge and change.
If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you.
Today we're taking a look at CHALLENGE and CHANGE through the prism of a few examples. The goal is to inspire YOU to find/create a new, personal challenge!
First, we reviewed MG's personal "burpee" challenge in a prior episode. Feeling the need to challenge and improve himself physically, he set a goal back in January to do 15 burpees a day for 30 days — a goal that quickly changed to 30 burpees (done within five minutes) for for thirty days straight. 98 days later... his streak ended doing 45 a day on the "off" days and 120 on "target" days.
Following P.A.R.R. (Plan, Act, Record, Reassess) MG upped the challenge in each successive four week tracking period. By the time the streak ended on April 11, he was doing as many as 5 sets of 15 daily. Habitstrength kicked in!
If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you.
Secondly, MG is planning his next goal: The Rim-to-Rim hike of the Grand Canyon, leaving the south rim and hiking across up to the north rim, about 25 miles. The ante has been upped already to add another 25 miles the next day hiking back to the south rim again. We'll keep you posted!
If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you.
Listen in for more on jumping into new challenges with a "now or never" attitude, developing a sense of urgency for your self-improvement, and creating your own personal challenges to create YOUR change.
Enjoy the episode!
