75 Soft - Medium - Hard: What is the difference?

Published on 9 July 2023 at 15:42

Intro 

The 75-Day Challenge is a self-improvement program designed to instill discipline, develop healthy habits, and promote personal growth over a period of 75 days. While specific variations of the challenge may exist, the core concept typically involves committing to a set of daily activities and behaviors that contribute to physical, mental, and emotional well-being. These activities often include regular exercise, adherence to a specific diet or nutrition plan, reading or learning, practicing gratitude or mindfulness, and avoiding certain negative habits.

The challenge aims to create a transformative experience, pushing participants outside their comfort zones, building resilience, and fostering a sense of accomplishment. By completing the 75-Day Challenge, individuals often report increased self-discipline, improved health and fitness, enhanced mental clarity, and a greater overall sense of personal achievement. It is important to note that the specific guidelines and requirements of the challenge can vary depending on the source or individual preferences.
