66-Day Challenge Details and Instructions

Posted on October 26, 2019January 13, 2023 by Kathryn Eyring

This 66-Day Challenge is designed so YOU can create a new long-term or permanent habit.

Create ONE goal

a NO-EXCUSES, NO-FAIL goal!

Gary Keller, who wrote the life-changing book, The One Thing, assures readers that it takes 66 days (not 30 days) to own and internalize a habit for good.

Therefore, pick ONE THING from the List of 66 Items or create your own personal goal that isn’t on the list.

Create your goal starting with “I am” and is stated in the present tense.

If you’re not sure about your goal or whether it fits well in this Challenge, just email me at Info@AgingGracefully.TV for a personal reply.

5 examples of 66-Day Challenge goals:

  1. I am writing in my journal DAILY for 66 days.
  2. I am going to the gym TWICE a week for 66 days.
  3. I am practicing French FOUR times per week for 66 days.
  4. I am texting something kind to someone DAILY for 66 days.
  5. I am going outside for fresh air 15 minutes THREE times per week for 66 days.

NEXT…

Write your goal in the comment box below or in the comment box of the 66-Day Challenge page.

ADDITIONAL NOTES…

  • You can hit Reply to any of the 66-Day Challenge emails for personal communication with me, your Health Coach. Feel free to email me your questions, suggestions, or comments at Info@AgingGracefully.TV.
  • The 66-Day Challenge emails are brief, with only 1 or two sentences of encouragement. They are meant to be uplifting reminders and take no more than 10 seconds to read.

This Challenge should be FUN, not difficult!

Ready to join me? Remember there are 2 ways to get started…

  1. Email Info@AgingGracefullly.TV; put 66 Days in the subject line.
  2. Declare your goal in the comment box (Be sure you have a valid email address. It’s only viewed by me!)

    I will only eat between the hours of 8.00am and 8.00pm for 66 days.

    Kathryn – my main aim hear is to stop evening eating. I didn’t want to write it as a negative – I will not eat after 8.00pm at night – but perhaps that would be ok? I don’t really mind what time I eat in the morning. What do you think?

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:

  10. Susan says:

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:
      October 26, 2019 at 8:33 pm

      EXCELLENT choice!

  11. June Sinclair says:

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:
      October 26, 2019 at 8:33 pm

      Love it!

  12. Ricky says:

    I will lose 20 pounds

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:
      October 26, 2019 at 9:02 pm

      Let me know how you might break that down into small chunks. Love the goal, but it’s a BIG one!

  13. Rick says:
    October 26, 2019 at 3:33 pm

    I challenge myself to walking 6 miles a week.

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:
      October 26, 2019 at 9:03 pm

      That would be great! How many times per week will you walk and how will you track it?

    I am doing my brief exercise routine 6 days per week, which includes 100 reps of the Callenetics abdominal exercise. I haven’t been doing this routine in full for a couple of years. I just sporadically do some of the exercises and only on rare occasions do I complete all the reps. I expect I will feel and look better if I commit to this routine 🙂

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:
      October 26, 2019 at 9:04 pm

      I love that you say “brief exercise routine.” That makes it doable even on a day that you don’t feel well.

  15. Cheri Abbott says:
    October 26, 2019 at 1:48 pm

    My goal is to take 5 mins a day for myself and meditate, Also I will give someone a compliment each day.

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:
      October 26, 2019 at 9:06 pm

      Let’s pick just ONE, Cheri. Since I know you pretty well, you probably could do BOTH but let’s focus on one at a time. My favorite of the two is the compliment. VERY doable. Meditation is GREAT but can be really hard to stick with DAILY when you get started!

  16. Sharon Meier says:
    October 26, 2019 at 1:29 pm

    I am spending quality time with my husband daily doing Bible study and marriage tips

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:
      October 26, 2019 at 9:21 pm

      I like this! Does he commit to it, also? How much minimum time will you commit to? I suggest 5 minutes. That’s doable under any condition. Of course, you can do more but you might want to make your “commitment” small and achievable under any conditions!

      1. Sharon Meier says:
        October 27, 2019 at 4:01 pm

        Thanks for the advise my husband is on board too he likes the idea of no matter what getting together for 5minutes And go from there.

  17. Mary says:
    October 26, 2019 at 1:17 pm

    I am writing in my journal daily for 66 days.

    1. Kathryn Eyring says:
      October 26, 2019 at 9:29 pm

      Oh, so doable! This is a daily habit for me. I have rarely missed a day for years!
