So it's five days until the New Year
and I realized something about myself.
I'm terrible at planning.
See, I've been working on the Mad
Stoic's Stoic Year of Living for a few months now and I've come up
with very little. Oh, I've got things we can do, but I couldn't
figure out how to structure it. Was there a logical way to do things?
And what gave me the right ideas about how to structure?
And what was the best way to get people
involved with the project? I wanted people to give feedback so we
could make sure the project helped out as many people as possible.
I racked my brain and I think I've come
up with something.
You guys are going to choose the first
challenge.
Here's how it's going to work: I'm
going to present two tasks. One will be Mental
tasks and one will be Physical
tasks. Mental tasks will concern themselves with things that don't
require much of your body, visualizations and journaling. Physical
tasks will challenge your body, like cold showers.
The
task you guys pick will be your first task that week. The other
option will become next week's.
And
while I have many ideas, I want you guys to give me input. I'd rather
do what you guys would rather focus on than just my thoughts.
Enough
yammering out of me, though. Here are your options:
Negative visualizations.
Everyone starts the New Year thinking of all the good things that
will come to them. Not us. We'll spend the first week tackling all
the things all that could go wrong. (Mental)
Cold showers.
It's been a warm winter this year. Let's cool things off. (Physical)
The poll is located on the side and closes 12/31/15 at noon.
Looking forward to spending the New Year will all of you.
