"Do the Thing" Challenge

Hey everyone, Ruben and Tova here!

We are inviting you to join us in our “Do the Thing” challenge. This will be a 7-day challenge where we encourage everyone to do a “thing” every day. The idea is to motivate each other by sharing our “things” with each other.

What counts as a “thing”?

A “thing” could be anything you have been putting off or that you would just like to do, but haven’t gotten around to do yet. 

  • Have you been staring at this book, but you haven’t picked it up to start reading it yet? This could be a good time! Do the thing! 📖

  • Do you have some cleaning chore that you’ve been meaning to do? Do the thing! 🧹

  • Do you want to write a nice journal entry today? Do the thing! 📕

  • It could also be something you decide in the moment. Do you feel like cooking something nice? Also a great time to do the thing! 🍲


A thing can also be something you’ve been nervous about trying, or doing, and have not done yet. 

  • Are you thinking about asking someone to have coffee with you? Do it! ☕ 

  • Maybe looking into taking a few classes? Get on it! 🎓 

Now is the perfect time to begin, and all you have to do is tell yourself you’re able to get out there and do the thing! 


What do I need to do to participate?
Simple! For the next 7 days, you post a little something about what “thing” you did today. You can also write a little about how you feel about it. If you would like some extra accountability, you are also welcome to post a thing you plan to do tomorrow as a challenge you set for yourself. You are free to challenge yourself as much as you like. What matters is that we get together and
👏Do. 👏The. 👏Thing!


We will also be participating in the challenge ourselves, so for inspiration, feel free to see our posts if you’d like an idea for a post format for your own things! If you would like to invite anyone else to join the challenge, feel free to tag them! 😉


Good luck on doing those things!
Ruben and Tova ❤️

My thing for tomorrow will be to go swimming again. I haven't gone for a few weeks now and I want to go again.

Good luck everyone on doing their things! 😊 You can do it!

I did half my thing. Kinda. I washed one load of laundry. It's still in the dryer. 

I'm sick. I tried. LOL

This inspired me today to do a clear out of my room, donating multiple bags to charity, I put it off for way too long 💙🤗

I did my thing today 😊 I had a good swim of about 4 km (a little under 2.5 miles) in just under 90 minutes. I hope I can get this back into my weekly routine again.

My thing for tomorrow will be to look at some academic tasks I have been ignoring for a while.

I am not well, so I am resting in bed today. BUT... I do have my planner cart next to me and it needs to be cleaned out and reorganized, but I've been putting it off. I can do the thing today. :)

It was a fairly busy day today, but I got around to do the thing I wanted to do today. It's nice to have this thing you have been putting off no longer lurking in the back of your head!

Tomorrow I have a fully planned day, but it will be quite a social day. My thing for tomorrow will be to meet new people.

Still sick, but I'm still planning on working in my planner, and doing a training for Cups. So my thing is to check in with my Cups roles and make sure I'm caught up on everything :)

I forgot to post yesterday, because I was quite tired. I had a good time at the thing I went to and met various new people. So I definitely did my thing. My thing for today was that I took a nice walk, which I also did 😊

For tomorrow, my thing will be to just get some stuff done for my studies.

I think my thing today is going to be rest. Because I really am behind on self-care and being ill you put that on the back burner. So I'm taking extra rest and self-care today.

Unfortunately, my thing for today didn't work out quite as well as I had hoped. I couldn't really focus well today. Luckily, I am not behind, so it is not really an issue.

Tomorrow I have a meeting. My thing will be to have a good meeting. As for a bonus thing, I want to make something nice for dinner.
