#365FirstsChallenge Movement
The #365FirstsChallenge makes it easy, fun, and convenient to discover, do, and learn new things to maximize what you get out of life!
Project Description
The #365FirstsChallenge makes it easy, fun, and convenient to discover, do, and learn new things to maximize who you are what you get out of life.
Neuroscientists, psychologists, successful entrepreneurs, and other experts all agree and give the advice that for success, happiness, and to maintain brain health we must continually be doing and learning new things.
The advice is heavily backed by science and research BUT like most great advice, implementing it in our lives is easier said than done.
The problem is that while the desire is there, the follow through becomes difficult for a number of reasons, and well, excuses.
The first and immediate problem is knowing where and how to even start.
- What new thing should I be learning or doing?
- How do I make sure it's beneficial to me?
- What's available and accessible to me?
Next problems is with our mindsets and beliefs about our abilities to do and learn new things
- Do I believe I can learn new things?
- What about my comfort zones, fears, and self-limiting beliefs?
- How do I work through the "I can't," "It's not for me," "It's too hard," "It's too scary"?
- In the past I failed and/or embarrassed myself when I tried to do and learn new things. How do I prevent that from happening again?
Finally there's the problem of needing help, support, and companionship
- How can I connect with others?
- Who can help and support me?
- Is there someone to hold me accountable?
The Solution is the #365FirstsChallenge Movement
1. Connect with a community of like-minded people who can give you the advice, inspiration, support, companionship, and accountability you need.
- Connect via social media using #365FirstsChallenge and through the #365FirstsChallenge Facebook Group
- Connect in-person where #365FirstsChalleng Meetup Groups are established
- Connect on the App in the next version released
2. Access training and interviews with experts to help you overcome your fears, comfort zones, self-limiting beliefs and also better understand the benefits of first times and new experiences
- Watch content on the #365Firsts YouTube Channel
- Tune-in to the #365Firsts Podcast
- Download the Start Your Journey of First Times and New Experiences Journal
- Link to training on the App in the next version released
- Attend virtual events and training
- Attend in-person events and training coming to a city near you
3. Easily make your #365FirstsChallenge list and follow through by having access to vendors, service providers, and special deals on the new things you want to do and learn in the next version of the App.
SEVEN CITIES TOUR
The funds will be used in the most efficient way to IGNITE the movement through creating (7) new #365FirstsChallenge meetup groups and doing a seven city tour to those cities in the next six months. Ann will visit each city to host meetups, an all day event/training, and a First Time Story Slam. The funds will also be used to get started on development of the next version of the #365FirstsChallenge App.
