Celebrating a Goal Achieved!
In March, I was knee deep in the slice of life challenge, when I saw a post on Instagram about #the100dayproject. It was shared by a favorite author of mine, Elle Luna.

I was teaching two different classes, writing blog posts every day, reading and commenting on student blog posts too, and something inside of me nudged me to take on this project.

Now, I had to decide what I should do…I wish I’d documented my thought process somewhere, but for some reason, I thought of writing a poem a day using my pink typewriter. You can read about my first day here.
I started the challenge on April 1st. I completed the challenge and shared my 100th poem yesterday. What did I learn?
- Doing something for 100 days truly built a habit.
- Showing up on days I didn’t feel like it, was hard.
- Sharing on days when I knew my poem was bad, humbled me.
- I enjoyed the quiet every day when I wrote.
- I love tap of my typewriter.
- I found confidence every day I showed up to the page.
- Many people enjoyed my poems.
I’d do it again…in a minute. The process was powerful. I learned a lot. I’m grateful that I was able to complete this. On to another challenge…
