I remember a little while ago this "75 Day Hard Challenge" really took the world in a wave. Everyone was doing these challenges, 75 day hard placement challenge, 75 day hard dsa challenge, 75 day hard proposing to your crush challenge.... and so on and so on....
I had never attempted to do it because I'm just not the kind of person who can do something for 75 days straight without ever doing it before. I am a seriously compounded person, and a little lazy as well. First for one day then I stop then 2 days streak then stop, then 4 days streak then stop.... And keeping up like this making small but consistent habits.
But I haven't invented this method. In reality, all strong things in the world which have depth and meaning are made like this. Nature works very very slowly, but it grows everyday. The human body, taking nutrients consistently everyday and a small baby grows into a full size human, without even us realising. Actually all growth happens under the hoods. I thinkn when we study everyday then the actually growth happens in our subconscious brain when we sleep. And if we keep doing it everyday everyday then it becomes a ridge in our brain and goes very very deep.
But don't listen to me, take it from James Clear, author of Atomic Habits who says that,
Small, daily 1% improvements (atomic habits) compound over time to create massive, transformative lifestyle changes, emphasizing that you do not rise to the level of your goals, but rather fall to the level of your systems.
So I wanted to do this 7 day soft dsa challenge, where I will solve easy problems but consistently, hoping to have this problem solving skill not just as an ornament but as an identity...
