I took up 4 challenges for the month of Oct’17.
Here is how I progressed in week 3.
Challenge # 1 : I will call a friend every day
Done. I called 7 friends again in the last week. Good to know some old friend still have my numbers stored though we haven’t spoken for years. The warmth of old friendship is still there.
Challenge # 2 : I will write a blog every day
Done. Recovered from my struggle last week. Though I may not publish some of them but I think I wrote a few of them well enough.

My learning in the 3rd week
The challenges are settling in the routine. There is so much of lost connection which needs to be re-established. There is so much to learn. There is so much of time which could be utilized better.
Let’s see how the 4th week goes.
