Ramadan Challenge

Starting off, I want to wish all of you a happy and blessed Ramadan. It is a holy month with lots of meaning, blessings, miracles and THE time to reconnect with Allah!
Saying that, one of the biggest things I've realized is that I don't really go out of my comfort zone during the month. Well.... to be honest I never step out of my comfort zone.....
BUT this year I want to! I want to make some alterations which will hopefully help me out even after Ramadan has gone by.
So to make sure that I actually go through with this, I'm posting this on the internet for the whole world to see 
What challenge do I have in mind exactly?
Well here are the goals for the month
      1) Finish the Quran  
                 I have tried this for the past 2-3 years but sadly I could never. I always end up having some left but this year I will finish it.
      2) Drink 8 glasses of water (minimum)
                 Have you ever realized how we don't drink enough water specially during Ramadan? 
      3)Study
                 I'm going to admit that I don't really study when I should. Since I want to have long term effects, I plan on studying at least 2 hours each day in the start and hopefully increasing it by the end of the month
      4) Good Deed each day
                Whether it is to compliment someone, express my appreciation, give charity, help someone etc. Do at least one intentional good deed. 
      5) Take care if Myself/ Put myself first
                Even though this is the month of giving, I really want to put myself first. I don't think many of us realize how much we put others before ourselves which isn't okay. I am in no means saying that one should lose empathy for others. All I'm saying is take care of yourself as well. Love yourself, work towards being happier, healthier and a better person. 


The challenge seems fairly easy but will I be able to do it? We shall see. 
If you guys want to, you can start the challenge as well!
