For my January daily habit, I did push ups because I thought I was okay at them. In the middle of January, I changed my daily habits a few times, because at first it was too easy and then it was too hard. But eventually, I got to a good tempo, and it was a good experience. And at the end of January, I thought I could always improve, so why not continue push ups in February?

     I realized halfway through that I was doing the push ups wrong, and so that made it harder, and I had to make the daily habit progress slower, and I made the number of push ups I was doing go up every two days.

     Of course there were challenges when I did the daily habit, and one of them was, of course, doing the push ups wrong. This was a big inconvenience because I had to re do the whole way I was doing the challenge, and it made it harder. I did find a way to do the push ups that was good for me, though, and eventually, I overcame the challenge.

     I really liked doing my daily habit, because not only am I a lot better at push ups now, I’m also better at pushing MYSELF. Daily push ups helped me do push ups better, and it gave me the experience of doing a daily habit, and I really liked that. The sense of gratification that came over me when I finished the daily habit was part of the reason that I continued the same daily habit into February.
