don’t buy “extra” stuff for a month 💸 - that means no shopping for clothes, no starbucks, no restaurant dates, no random pretty stationery. buy only what you truly need.
learn a language every day for a month 🌍
- there are tons of apps and recources out there meant to help you learn a new language. don’t give up after a week long streak, make it a month!
read (x) pages every day for a month 📖
- looking at my not-even-half-done goodreads challene makes me sad, so working on reducing my tbr list is one of my top priorities this upcoming year
watch a (short) documentary every day for a month 📽
- make a new folder on youtube and add all educational videos you think you’d find interesting to it. there are countless channels out there - crashcourse, it’s okay to be smart, kurzgesagt, ted-ed (…) with variety of amazing videos
study for (x) hours every day for a month
🧠
- it’s easy not to do anything school related when you have an exam-free week, but when the time comes, you might find yourself overwhelmed with work. try to study every day, but be mindful of your mental health.
meditate every day for a month
🧘
- find a good youtube meditation coach or install an app and use it. even if it’s only three minutes a day, it could make a big difference.
work out every day for a month
🏃
- other than working on your mental health, you need to take care of your physical health as well. a workout can be anything from a simple 5-minute stretch, to a 2-hour long gym session!
reach 10k steps every day for a month
🚶
- a lot of phones have pedometers pre-installed, but if your phone doesn’t, i truly recommend getting a step counting app. go out and get some fresh air! if it’s too cold outside, you can walk around in circles in your house
drink (x) liters of water every day for a month
💧
- pure water might not be everybody’s cup of tea (hah), but an actual cup of tea might be! if you don’t like drinking plain water, make sure to get enough of it via tea, coffee, soups…
eat vegeterian/vegan every day for a month
🥗
- if you decide to do this, make sure to get informed beforehand and see if this could cause you any health problems. if it’s safe for you, prepare to be met with a lot of advantages of this lifestyle!
no chocolate/added sugar for a month
🍫
- i had a bad habit of over-snacking on sweets, but cutting just chocolate or just added sugar led me to far healthier eating habits! you don’t have to give up both at the same time!
go to sleep early & wake up early every day for a month
⏰
- or at least get no more and no less than eight hours of sleep every night! but, for example, going to sleep at 10pm and waking up at 6am is what this challenge is aiming for.
