1 Day Challenge

I was reading a book, "How to Think Like a CEO" and the author presented a "1 Day Challenge."  The idea is to manage and lead by ONLY asking questions.  No directives.  It is a great relational skills challenge.

That got me thinking about how I could challenge myself in other areas.  I thought of a couple:
  1. Speed read a book in a day.                                             Intellectual Challenge
  2. Only drink water.  That means no coffee.  ouch.               Physical Fitness Challenge
  3. Stay at or below the speed limit for a day.                         Self-discipline Challenge
  4. Only look people in the eyes.                                            Relational Challenge
  5. Fast and pray during meals                                               Spiritual Challenge
  6. No spontaneous purchases                                               Financial Challenge

To gain further benefit, I thought of challenges that would take a week to complete:

  1. Vegetarian diet                                                                  Physical Fitness Challenge
  2. Post and Reply in LinkedIn each day for a week               Relational Networking Challenge
  3. Clean and organize a specific room in the house/office     Emotional Well-being Challenge
  4. Experience homelessness for a week                                Relational and Financial Challenge
  5. Memorize a passage or poem                                           Intellectual Challenge
 Reply below with a challenge you would give yourself?
