I have the pleasure of knowing a great young man by the name of Zach Swee. He started doing something he calls 7 in 7. He does 7 things every day for 7 days. Actually, he's so disciplined and good at it that he now does 60 in 60! So impressive!
Anyway, I'm going to start out with 7 in 7. I'm going to start this Sunday, 5 December 2010. Here are my 7 things in no particular order of importance:
1. Floss
2. Read for one hour before bed
3. Knit a cup cozy
4. 30-45 minutes of yoga
5. Eat one serving of fruit and one serving of vegetable
6. Journal
7. Sew for one hour
Are you going to try it? What are your 7?

PS - my good Australian friend, Tamara, told me about Sebastian Terry. He is doing 100 Big Things before he hits 30. Check out his blog here to see what he's accomplished. His list includes sky diving naked, buying a stranger's lunch, delivering a baby - he's making waves for those with stale bucket lists!

PS - my original 7 things were entirely too ambitious on the whole! Here are my revised 7 things:
1. Floss
2. Read for one hour before bed
3. Knit
4. 30-45 minutes of yoga OR 4+ mile run
5. Eat one serving of fruit and one serving of vegetable
6. Journal and/or post on Emovolution
7. Blog and/or post for Reverb10

Amanda, you've made a great list! I think you're going to find this to be difficult yet rewarding. At the end of the 7 days, you'll be able to look back and see actual results of what a disciplined life looks like. 7 hours worth of reading, 7 hours of sewing...you're body will get the yoga, fruit, and vegetables that maybe it wouldn't have before.
You're next week has a purpose, and I'm excited to hear has it goes.
What a brilliant idea! Good luck!
