Announcing: Weekly Challenges on Go Mighty

Last week marked the launch of our weekly challenge series, where each week brings us closer to completing a goal. Most of us have a class we've been meaning to take or a skill we'd like to acquire on our Life Lists. To get things started, we challenged the Go Mighty community to schedule an hour to: 

Research a goal,

Sign up for a class,

Gather the materials you need,

Or enlist a friend for support,

And share your progress using the tag #hourone.

Bonnie got started on the Artist's Way. Megan did a little meditating. Sarah made something that looks pretty square to us. Lorien, yours is looking good too, girl. Liz got to stepping. Irish style. Rebecca learned a skill she missed in childhood. Amy tried a new writing technique. Karisa is going to be a fly girl in no time. Libby is giving Open Yale a go. Harmony made her union frame official. Daffodil is learning how to design her own book cover. We like Retta's approach to business. And Sharon, have you been working out? Yes.

This week's challenge is #gosummer. 

September 22 is the last official day of Summer. Did you miss anything? This week why not:

Plan something you hoped to fit in,

Consider what made this summer good, and make a reminder list for next year.

Think big for next summer by making a plan for how you can shift a cause you care about,

Check off some Summer Resolutions if you made a list.

When you do, let us know by writing a story on Go Mighty, tag it #gosummer, and we'll enter you for a chance to win a ticket to Camp Mighty. By searching for #gosummer on Go Mighty you can see all the people who have already joined the challenge.
