New month = New challenge

🧘‍♂️ Meditation Day 3 – No Calm, No Relaxation... Yet? It’s Day 3 of my meditation journey, and if I’m being brutally honest… I still feel nothing . Not the peace people talk about, not the calm found in all those articles and YouTube videos. There’s no instant serenity after sitting for 30 minutes in silence. No magical feeling of lightness, no “aha” moment. But I’ve realized something important: it’s too early to judge . I’m only three days in. And real change— deep, lasting transformation —probably takes time, discipline, and consistency. 🧠 Let’s Break It Down: Why Am I Not Feeling Calm? After today’s session, I spent some time questioning what’s missing . If meditation is supposed to bring calm and clarity, why do I walk away feeling nothing… or sometimes worse? Here’s what I discovered as I dug deeper: 🧠 Mood – Every day brings a different emotional state. If I start a session already stressed, anxious, or irritable, it’s hard to shift that energy with just breathing. ⚡ E...

🧘‍♂️ Day 2 – The Journey Goes On… 🌅 As usual, today was another step in this unfolding journey. This was Day 2 , and it came with its own set of experiences, challenges, and small improvements. One change I made during today’s meditation was elevating my sitting position 🪑. It might sound small, but it made a big difference. This adjustment helped me avoid the numbness and pain in my legs 🦵, which usually becomes a distraction. Sitting a bit higher allowed better blood flow and posture, and that really supported me in staying present. Aside from that, I noticed something like yesterday: there was redness in my eyes 👁️ for a short period after the meditation. At first, it felt strange, but over time it gradually returned to normal. Maybe it’s a sign of inner strain or detox, I don’t know yet. Also, compared to yesterday, the headache today was lighter 🤕. It was still there, but not as intense—a minor weight instead of a pounding sensation. Maybe my body is adjusting to this de...

🧘‍♂️ Day 1 of My Meditation Challenge: Way Harder Than I Thought 😮‍💨 So today marks the first official day of my self-improvement challenge—and more specifically, my 30-minute daily meditation commitment . To be honest, I thought meditation would be the "easy" part of my journey. You sit down, you breathe, you focus… simple, right? Wrong. Today was a serious eye-opener. So before I dive into the actual experience, let me give you some background to help you understand exactly what I’m doing, how I’m doing it, and why this was such a challenge for me. 🌅 My Early Morning Routine First things first, I’ve got one habit I’ve already built that I’m proud of—I wake up around 4:00 AM every day. That early start gives me some extra peace and quiet, and I figured it would be the perfect time to knock out my meditation session. But instead of jumping into meditation immediately after waking up, I give myself about 30 minutes to ease into the day . I do a few small things—stretch ...

The Idea – A Small Step Forward As far as today is concerned, I honestly don’t have much to write. I feel behind on content, disconnected from my routine, and unsure what to share. But somehow, I still show up. Writing has become a part of my daily habit now—it’s something I promised myself I’d stick with. Even when it’s difficult, I remind myself that this is good for me. So instead of forcing something new, I want to share a thought that’s stuck with me for a long time—the idea of the 1% rule . You may have heard of it from Atomic Habits , or even from the Japanese philosophy of Kaizen . It’s simple but powerful: improve just 1% each day. Learn something new, take a small step forward, and over time, those tiny gains compound into something big. I’ve tried applying this before, but I often failed because of inconsistency. Once I break the streak, it becomes harder and heavier to start again. And that’s when guilt creeps in. The truth is, the moment progress gets interrupted, the rest...

🌱 Day of Reflection: Feeling It, Not Just Reading It So where should I start? Lately, so much has been happening. Uncertainty, emotions, ups and downs. But moving on and continuing—that’s life. First things first, I did some research on 30-minute meditation . Almost every site and article says the same things: reduced stress, inner calm, improved focus, better emotional regulation, and more. While all of this sounds good, it honestly feels too theoretical . We understand it on a surface level, but we don’t feel it. That creates a gap between what we think we know... and what we actually experience. Right now, I don’t want more information. I want transformation. I don’t want to just read about calm and focus—I want to feel it.✨ Today, I felt a bit low. But I kept writing anyway. There’s something about the idea that someone out there is waiting for an update . That thought pushes me forward. So, here I am. Even if it seems small, I still did something. Truth be told, I’m getting a...

🧘‍♂️ A New Challenge Begins: 30 Minutes of Meditation for 30 Days There are so many challenges we can try out... but the hardest part is figuring out where to start . So, I asked ChatGPT for some ideas — and to be honest, it gave me three interesting ones: Wake up at 6:00 AM daily ⏰ Quit social media for 30 days 🚫📱 Learn a new skill like graphic design or video editing 🎨🎥 All of these are great — but they didn’t feel like me . Why? Because I can already wake up at 4 AM with ease. I’m not even that active on social media — I just use YouTube and Instagram occasionally for entertainment. What I need is something more rare , powerful , and mentally tough . Something that pushes my limits and builds me up — from within. That’s when an idea hit me… 💡 🧠 Let’s Talk About Meditation We’ve all heard people say, “Meditate for 5 minutes a day — it helps.” And maybe it does. But let’s be real — 5 minutes might bring some calm, but the quality and depth of that experience? I...

🌟 The Plan (Read This Before the Journey Begins) So here's the plan — what I'm thinking right now is to perform as many experiments as possible and try to grasp what things work best for me and what don’t. For that, there needs to be a time limit . And according to research, 30 days is enough to get an overview of any habit or skill. 🧠⏳ At the end of 30 days , I’ll share a detailed overview of what I did, what I learned, and how I felt. But during those 30 days, I’ll be blogging daily about the performance and my feelings while doing it. 📖✨ This is kind of inspired by Matt D'Avella’s concept , but I want to take it a bit deeper — maybe more detailed and personal. And who knows? In the future, I might shift the perspective or try something totally new. Nobody knows what the future holds. 🤷‍♂️🚀 🎯 The Real Goal: Consistency > Everything Another thing — around the end of those 30 days (or near it), I’ll start preparing for my next challenge . Or maybe you gu...

First of all, I want to thank all the viewers who watched my first blog. 🙏 Honestly, I didn’t expect anyone to watch it — but just knowing that someone did, made me feel really good. It felt like a small yet meaningful milestone in my journey. 🎉 I remember one thing clearly: your first step is always the hardest . It’s scary and uncertain… but when you take it without expecting anything in return, it feels freeing — like roaming the world without worrying about what you left behind. 🌍✨ I have a small request for those who are reading this: If you feel that this kind of content is rare, unique, or if it resonates with you in any way — I’d love to know you. Just drop your name and city in the comments. This isn’t just for fun — who knows, maybe we’ll end up building a beautiful community together. 💬❤️ So, getting back to the topic — What is this all about? 🤔 Well, as the title suggests — this is an experiment . Each month, I’ll take on a new challenge , and instead of doing ...

🌍 Hello to the World – Day 1 This is my first blog post. I was thinking about what I should write, but then I remembered a quote: "Your first try will always be your worst." So I stopped letting negative thoughts and perfection hold me back. I focused on just one thing — creating this blog without hesitation . 🤔 Why Do I Want to Write a Blog? This question popped into my mind. And honestly, I had a pretty good answer. As human beings, we have the urge to make life an adventure — to live stories worth telling. And maybe, somewhere out there, a stranger will read our story and feel inspired. I want to experience that feeling — even just once. The best way to do that is to write it down and share it with the world . It’s like sailing on a journey for hidden treasure , writing about the challenges we face and letting others learn from them. From now on, I’ll be sharing my real journey with you — the experiments, the struggles, the new ideas — so maybe you can become bett...
