I am going to start my day with positive thoughts!
I can combine walk a dog and go outside for fresh air for 15 minutes. What a great beginning to a new year.
Kathryn
Love it! You’re right on!
I will do at least one if the 1 minute exercises every day.
AWESOME!!!
I’m going with #22. My areas are going to be my closet, my garage, and my office
I will spend one hour a day committed solely to my coaching business.
Love it, Coach! An hour a day is doable under any conditions!
This is a great idea. Simple, yet interesting and challenging.
My one goal will be:
“I am going outside for fresh air 15 minutes THREE times per week for 66 days.”
That’s GREAT! It’s so good for mental and physical wellbeing!
Give a compliment to someone.
Karen, this is great. You’ll be the happier one at the end of 66 days!
Goal is to organize as I continue to sort through household items I no longer need.
This is a great list that promotes creativity, wellness, and positivity – especially beneficial for helping to keep us inspired and active during the colder, darker months ahead. And hey, I instantly accomplished #23 by looking up “Zentangle” (#25), which also sounds like a fun new activity to try! Now I’m doing #46. ✓✓✓ This is fun!
It’s so FUN having you join in! Thank you, Lori!
A fun way to build more good habits! Loving it!
Thank you for joining, Claire!
Looking forward to a couple of great, new habits.
I love the wide variety of things to try. All very positive! Hope to do them all.
I am going to start at the top of this list and try one every day.
