Dauntless December Challenge

December arrives upon our doorsteps with a swishing of coattails, jingling twinkle lights, and a snappy pace in its step. The last month of our calendar year can often enter in a hurry and exit in a dash. This December, let’s be dauntless. Let’s make lists, accomplish those tasks, dwell richly within the precious moments, and delight in this wintry season’s wrapping. Maybe you’re too busy. Maybe you’re bored. Maybe you’re facing an emptier holiday season. Maybe you’re frustrated with the hustle and bustle. For those of us on every level of the playing field, let’s do December purposefully.

I’ve created an Instagram/Facebook challenge, where each day has a certain theme. What you do:

1) Save this picture!!! Use it all month.

2) The number on the challenge corresponds to the date on which you post. (December 1st, use #1, etc)

3) On that number/day, create a photo (ideally a square photo, for Instagram) related to that day’s theme.

4) Post the photo, along with a fun caption that goes with it, and be sure to include #dauntlessdecember with it! If you like, include the hashtag for the day’s theme. (#dauntlessdecember #starlight)

5) You will need to ensure your photo is public so that everyone can see your post.

6) Scroll through FB and Insta to see the other posts! "Like" and comment on the ones you enjoy!

Many people like to use books for their challenge pics. Pick a book on your shelf that has something to do with the theme, and have fun! Get some great ideas for how to set up fabulous pics by searching the #bookstagram hashtag on Instagram.
