a mess

CHALLENGE INFORMATION:

You are more than welcome to answer these questions whenever you find them! You can start early or later than when the collective challenge starts. but if you wanted to join the group and do it with (what I'm hoping will be) a whole bunch of other people, I'll be officially starting the challenge on November 13th, 2021.

This challenge has 30 questions or challenges for each day, and will therefore end on December 13th, 2021 (if my counting skills serve me right, which they didn't the last time but here's to hoping they've improved)! Again, you can answer these questions in bunches like I typically do if you've been watching my posts for a while or you can answer them once a day, whatever works best for you! I really do hope the questions connect with you, as they're a little bit all over the place but I was hoping to challenge some of us with some more unique questions :) as well as a ton of fun ones!

And, just like last time, I will be making a tag list to add to this main post so that people can see who else is planning on doing this challenge! I may try and make it into a separate post and just pin it to this blog, I'll see what works best for me and for you guys too. Regardless, there will be a tag list and if you want to be added to it, lease reblog this post! I'll then add your name! You can also send me an ask in my ask box (no DMS please, I find them too hard to keep up with and see) if you want to be added or removed from said list :)

Starting on November 13th I will also be tracking the tag #tranquilwinterbuddies so please use this tag when you're posting about this challenge! I would absolutely love to see and share your posts!

QUESTIONS:

So, in my last challenge I had people start each day by setting themselves an intention, or a goal, or just by stating their mindset for that day and a lot of people seemed to like that, so I'm bringing it back here! So, every day (or for every post you make for the challenge), an additional question is added where you can simply fill in one of the choices here:

1. Today, I am ________. (Stating your mindset or emotional state for the day. I find this can help me to accept emotional states or certain states of mind when I'm feeling confusion or doubt).

2. Today, I choose ______. (Inspired by Yoga with Adrienne, whom I still admire very much).

3. Today, my goals are _________. (what do you want to accomplish today?)

You can switch up your choices too, or you can fill out two or all three of them if you want to! Just pick one, two or three that you feel suits you best for that post. Or, you can make your own if you want!
