Public posting of my 30 day trials
Contemplation
Although I don’t do the standard “New Years Resolution” each year, I have been doing something similar but much more limited in scope and more often. It’s called the “30 day trial.” I’ve been doing this “30 day trial” for a couple of years now off and on.
This has included tons of various improvements in an attempt to either start a new good habit, or break an old bad one. Examples of ones I’ve already tried are vegetarianism for 2 months, writing daily in a journal, recording my dreams, morning exercise, getting up early, flossing, no alcohol, and more.
I’ve had some success and some were not so successful. Most of the unsuccessful ones were because I didn’t stick to the full thirty days and gave up. To help alleviate that, I am going to take the next step forward and publicly post my progress on my trials to hold myself accountable and keep a log of how well I did.
My list of published trials: (To be expanded as I do them)
- January 2008 – 20 minutes of deep meditation, 20 minutes of drawing, 40 minutes of workout
- Days 1 to 5
- Days 6 to 10
- Days 11 to 15
- Days 16 to 20
- Days 21 to 25
- Days 26 to 30
- February 2008
Possible future trials:
- Talk to a new person every day

It would be nice if you posted a good URL on how to meditate.
I’ve been looking for one lately.

I’m the only one in this world. Can please someone join me in this life? Or maybe death…
