Who Should Do the Challenge?
Anyone can do the Challenge, but it is geared toward moms who have children older than 1. I write it as a mom for moms.

But if you are looking for ways to better your life, change your lifestyle, be more productive, or live each day present then this is the Challenge for you. 

This Challenge isn't for those who are going through a big life transition such as a new marriage, new baby, new job, or a new house. The Challenge takes commitment, preparation, time, and energy. It is hard, but the end results are worth it.

What is the Add One-A-Day 30 Day Challenge?
The Add One-A-Day 30 Day Challenge is a lifestyle challenge. Every item added each day is researched-based and intended to improve your life in some way. Not all of the challenges will work for you, but in the end, you will leave the Challenge with new ways to better your life. 

It works like this: On Day 1, you will complete one task. On Day 2, you will complete two tasks - what you did on Day 1 and something new. On Day 3, you will complete three tasks - what you did on Day 1, Day 2, and something new. So on and so on until you reach Day 30. By Day 30, you will have done what you completed on Day 1 30 times.

The first 15 days are the most important to changing your lifestyle. They focus on sleep, eating, and exercise. That's why they are in the beginning because they are intended to be done more, so you build a habit. The second half are helpful changes to sprinkle into your life occasionally.

Where and When Should You Start the Challenge? 
Anywhere or anytime! 

If you are not going through a huge life transition than anytime is the right time to start. Stop waiting for that perfect moment. You'll never find it. There's always an excuse to not start it.

​Start today! But I suggest giving yourself 5 days to prep for the Challenge.

With this Challenge, you are guaranteed to get long term results if you put in the work. No more gimmicks, no more fad diets, no more quick fixes. The Add-One-A-Day 30 Day Challenge gives you long lasting benefits.
