Last summer, I challenged myself to do something difficult. I challenged myself to go out and do something every day during the summer season. It sounds simple. It's not. You get tired and don't feel like it. But I did some stuff that I normally wouldn't have done, and maybe learned some things on the way. I may do it again this year. We'll see.
