I started giving myself monthly challenges to spice up my time a little. Seeming as the new year is just around the corner, I thought it would be as good as time as any to introduce this concept to my kindred of the, motherfucking, metaboard of digital floors.
A monthly challenge is a list or-sometimes- a singular goal that you wish to achieve by the end of the month. The point of months instead of weeks or days is so that the challenges don't become schedule fillers or end up haunting your mind as looming threats to finish. In my living leisure, brothers and sisters, I noticed that most goals you set up over a long period will be worked towards or finished just by being presented offhandedly as a goal. Where with weeks, if you get distracted/tired/in RL shit you end up procrastinating then feel like crap and not want to do any challenges.
So, shit, the theme of the thread is that we post challenge we want to tackle each month. Challenges should be reasonable and small EG: I want to finish a chapter of my book
but I won't shovel peoples sewer line up for making bigger challenges. You can also request I-or someone else- give you challenges instead. If that person knows your interests/work/whatever.
Here are mine this month(note: this continues over to next month, since we're starting near the end of december anyway):
(!) : Write 3 short stories, with marked quality improvement.
(2) DM my first DnD game
(3) last 20 minutes in killing floor vr holdout mode.
We can do a thing where we give points out to completed challenges or something, if folks are into that. But we got no way of verifying if someone actually did their challenge.
