Each challenge is a cold turkey endeavor with a hard and fast start date. The end date, however, is negotiable. You see, every challenge is one that makes me a better person or does something good for others and when the clock countdown hits zero, that doesn’t necessarily mean I’ve hit ground zero on betterment. These challenges linger because they usually change my life – sometimes in small ways and sometimes in bigger ways.

If you’ve challenged yourself and you’ve hit your deadline, but you like what you see, then keep going or take bits and pieces of your experience and have them be your new normal. The journey will teach you things you’ve never known before. What you do with that knowledge is up to you.
