7 Day Challenge- This time I am determined to finish this challenge!

[machoman]

Hello everyone,

Its been 1 year as a member of this forum and I have to admit that I haven't applied what I have learned fully in to my life yet(I think I have become one of those self help junkies that steve described). I even tried a 30 day challenge before, but failed miserably in it by not taking the required actions everyday. So I decided to do start out a 7 day challenge first and see if I can make any improvements. The reason I do this 7 day challenge is that my semester(theory) exams have finished and my college has announced 7 days holiday.So I am completely free from any college related work.

So here's my 7 day challenge tasks:

1. Finish reading two books fully. (You know, I just spend my reading time reading one chapter from one book and losing interest it and taking another book and doing the same).(2 chapters in one day) [And the books are Beyond Positive thinking & Shell Programming]
2.I read somewhere that reading one sentence and applying it to your life is 100 times much better than reading a whole book and not applying it.So I will try to do at least one action each day that will help me in getting the results I want.
3.Since I don't talk with people too much, my voice is not supple.So I will practice those Voice exercises from vocal power program to improve my voice.(1 hour)
4.Learn any useful things regarding study skills each day(and yes, practicing it)(1 hour)

And I will definitely post my updates everyday.
Also please give your suggestions(if any) that you like to give me

So okay, Its time to go to bed now and start with these tasks tomorrow...

Not sure why you don't talk with people too much? How about adding that to the challenge too?
