30 day challenge ideas 甲斐(ikigai)

總之緣起於看了以下這篇談到日本人活得很起勁的文章，連結查詢了DOIY的這個有趣公司，再找看看有沒有30天挑戰的那種文章。然後今天下午在ooh cha cha 自然食編織還想到點子就寫下來自己打算製作的某些30天挑戰或者每天的生活指南之類的。很開心放鬆的一個下午。

什麼是生?甲斐(ikigai)？這個來自日本的單詞可以解釋為找到生活的目標、熱情或意義。在《Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life》

30天的挑戰

之前完成好幾本沒有出版的書

You don’t always need to partake in massive life altering experiences, around the world adventures or make drastic lifestyle changes to your routine to make a significant difference to your life. Although I’ll never say no to an adventure, I’d like to think that long term change comes from your outlook on life. It’s not necessarily where you are, but what you do with your time there. Change yourself from the inside first.

What I like about the whole 30 day challenge project is that you can make a massive difference to your life without having to spend loads of money, relocate or wait until the time is right. The majority of the 30 day challenge ideas I’ve listed here can be done anywhere — some of them for as little as five minutes a day. I first heard about 30 day challenges from Matt Cutts in his inspiring TED talk
