Starting tomorrow, I will be embarking on a journey to challenge myself in the next four months leading up to my 30th birthday. I have created a list of 30 different thirties I will accomplish by December 1st, 2013. The goals run the gamut of topics and should make for a busy, but fulfilling next four months. Some will be easy, some not so much. Some will be fun, others not so much. Some are deeply personal, others completely frivolous. All will help me learn more about myself and contribute to the development of the person I aim to be. I invite you to share in my journey, or perhaps to create your own.
