For this week, I am going to try this challenge because in a way it is very similar to what I had tried before. I love writing things down on my dry erase board because it is something I look at everyday. I can commit to this more than I can commit to writing a blog post because I pass my board on the way out everyday and that will ensure that I don't forget. I am going to pick something good that happened everyday of th...
