30-day challenges.
Life-style gurus are increasingly promoting the idea of taking a 30-day challenge. Challenge yourself to achieve something in 30 days.

Make the list detailed, so, for example, when you say you love your garden, single out a particular plant or tree that you especially appreciate.
