The average person only keeps their New Year's Resolutions for 12 days... which can sound pretty discouraging.

keeping on task with projects and goals has always been difficult for me. thanks for the link to listen to.
The last time somebody fixed my computer they managed to disconnect one of the important sound drivers so I have no way to listen to audio anymore but I read your post and it's very interesting. This challenge definitely gets people started on some of these goals. Although we did lose some people along the way, alot of people who had doubts about whether they could stick with it actually did. Sometimes the biggest barrier to people setting a goal or committing to a goal is their concept of its size. Then once they actually try it they find it's not as monumental a task as they imagined.
