I started this Challenge because I wanted to
improve my time management skills and help whoever I could do the same.
But it was when I received this comment on my
blog that I understood that this could REALLY help people in many different
ways:
"I made my list on Saturday night and yesterday I managed to eat the biggest of all the frogs I had… For about ONE YEAR I wasn’t able to go to church on Sundays but yesterday I was able to wake up when my alarm went off and I went to church. I am soooooooo HAPPY! Let’s go all out… 2013 is going to be a good year! This challenge is a blessing!" Phaty
I remember one time in my life when I too was
overwhelmed with too many things to do and didn’t know what to do or where to
start. Until a friend of mine showed me a light at the end of the tunnel…
And that was when this whole frog idea started :)
We started a new round of Challenge this week and
those who persevere in following the tasks will also see the results in their
life.
So for those starting with me, welcome to the
Time Challenge. Expect to be challenged indeed.
And for those who would like to join us next
time, here’s the link.
I accept the Challenge!! This will help me change! I am ready for this blessing.
ReplyDeleteI have a question do we post our to do list?
God Bless
Hi Denise, no need. Just the picture of you doing the list :)
DeleteI'm ready to start this challenge. There is absolutely no more time to waste!I'm in.(:
ReplyDeleteBtw, our first task was to write out the list, but do we complete all the things on the list by this Sunday too??
No Mary, you should have received the next task with more instructions. Just follow them ;)
DeleteHi Mrs. Raphaela,I am ready for the challenge it is really going to help me a lot in managing my time :)

DeleteWell this time challenge changed me a lot! I wrote every single thing I need to do and is helping me a lot!! I'm so happy!! :) I did the important things first through the list I wrote! I know is just the start of it and I will fight until the end!!
ReplyDeleteOh my my whole week was busy and hard to eat my frogs.I only ate about three frogs but it took time, especially when there was a vigil on Friday all the way to 4a.m. and woke up until 7 than go back to sleep and woke again around 11am But at least i did some and I'm gonna finish eat my frog.
ReplyDeleteToday I ate 2 big frogs in the morning, but it helped me get fed spiritually all day long.
ReplyDeleteIm already seeing the difference
Hi Mrs. Raphaela :)
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know how my day went... today i manage to eat 4 frogs :)) out of those 4 frogs 2 of them were the biggest, the first one i should've done it a long time i mean a LONG TIME! But i always would put excuses, or i felt lazy. So i told myself "whether i feel like it or not" i will do it. So i went ahead and had call to take on-line driving course test and i'm doing it...:D
And the 2nd big frog is everymorning i will always do excercise but stopped a couple of months ago, and for that reason i will wake up with a backache, cranky, no strength at all but today i started to excercise again and it feels great. Honestly eating these frogs are challenging, but overall it's great when you see the results more frogs to eat tomorrow yuck lol.
Hi Mrs.Raphaela
ReplyDeleteThroughout last week i manage to eat 2 frogs :) One of my frogs to look for a job and i was like no i don't want to but i was thinking well then how I'm going to buy things i like I'm still going to depend on my parents.So that day i was leaving application in different places.On Tuesday night a manager from a restaurant that i applied called me for any interview on Wednesday @1pm ad its close by where i live:) My Second frog was to find time to organize my clothes because usually i would leave my clothes on my bed or just not folding soi told me myself I'm going to fix my clothes which i did and little that i know i was fixing my sister clothes to :)
On monday i had 2 frogs to eat one of them i had been putting on hold for months but i managed to eat my two frogs

Hi Mrs Rachel
ReplyDeleteBeen so long to view your web, can see so much i was behind.
Nice updates
Kisses.
Hi Mrs Raphaela. :-)
ReplyDeleteSaturday, was the day when I managed to fully eat a frog. FINALLY! I exclaimed as I finished work I was doing, work that should have been done a very long time ago. I had three frogs, one eaten. This week was not easy, as it didn't help with me completing it with a snail speed and the amount I had to do became even more overwhelming. Nonetheless, I've learnt from it, and will not eat frogs, with such snail speed this week, otherwise I'll never get very far (no pun intended). :-)
Hi everyone !
ReplyDeleteThis week was waaaw, just busy ! New job, new habits. I needed to reorganize myself and it wasn't easy at all for my time challenge. This week, I'm determined to change this situation !!
On monday all the way to wednesday i didnt mange to eat any of my frogs
ReplyDeleteBut on thursday i ate one frog out of five which isnt bad but i could of do e better
Hi Mrs. Rafaela,
ReplyDeleteThis week was hectic for me but thanks to making a to do list I was able to organize my time better in order to accomplish what I had to do and I did manage to eat most of my frogs. On Friday morning I received the news that I had to leave to another state and I had to pack and all to leave the next day. Now that I arrived at a new state and have a new job the time challenge is very helpful to me to get organized and to have time to do it. I know I will accomplish much more this week.

hi
DeleteI have been on annual leave this past two weeks. So I had an opportunity to eat huge frogs that I never had the ability to eat till now, 3 of them I carried around for about 6 months.
But none the less I'm glad to say I have pushed them down my throat. All in all In this past two weeks I managed to eat 9 out of 10 huge frogs.
I'm all smiles, now the real challenge starts when I go back to work on Monday, keeping this great skill.

Wow, time is passing by so fast.
ReplyDelete5/14/13 I had 5 frogs, I ate 3.

5/17/13 4 frogs, I ate 2.
Today the 18th I had 7 frogs, I ate 5 frogs.
Something that takes me time to complete, and is very unpredictable is my homework from school. It gets kind of overwhelming, because when I'm making my list I think man should I write that down or not. If I do I won't have time to do other things I want.So now, I'm having to find a balance between completing my responsibilities and prioritizing what is most important. Which is hard, because it requires lots of discipline and lots of saying no to yourself.
Hello All(:
ReplyDeleteSo are we not posting our frogs here anymore??
I will continue until further notice..
5/19/13 I had 3 frogs I ate 2.
5/20/13 I had 5 frogs I ate 3 and 1/2.

5/22/13 I had 4 frogs I ate 1.
5/23/13 I had 4 frogs, I ate 3.
This week has been loaded for me, due to school projects and school coming to an end. But this time challenge has helped me run these last couple of days more smoothly. I'm not perfect, but slowly I am progressing! ("
Hi everyone well one of the annoying frogs I had this week was waking up early to go to work it was like my bed was pulling me down to lay down but I said to myself weather I like it or not I have to wake up and put on my work clothes :) that was one but there's more.
ReplyDeleteP.S This Time Challenge has been helping in organizing my time well and even in my job been keeping track on the how I do things I'm excited for more :)
Hi Sandra, your annoying frog has to be something that you have to constantly do and that takes you a long time to do it.
DeleteThe goal is to decrease the time it takes you to finish it, so choose another one and let me know ok?
Hi time challengers
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to say I have changed a lot since taking part of the time challenge, the frogs I ate....its amazing.
I used to leave my house unorganised in the morning this to me was a big ugly daily frog. Most of the reason was that I never had enough time, in the morning (so I thoaght).
But now I can leave for work, and be at ease that even I my mom can come for a Surprice visit, I wouldn't be bitting my nails. Now I'm working on cutting the time it takes me to organise it in the morning by at least 10 min.
Its hard but I can do it, am most definatly pressing forward.
Hi Sindiswa :) Well done!
DeleteI will post your comment on my Facebook :)
Hi Mrs. Raphaela,I would have to say that one of my annoying frogs is cooking after a long day at work, coming home at night to cook for the next day's lunch. I usually do take a long tome to cook and clean after I cook, that I end up sleeping really late. My Goal is to find an easier way to take less time to cook and clean. What I have done is to look for easy, delicious, and fast recepies to shorten the amount of time. It has helped me but I want to improve even more :)
ReplyDeleteGod Bless!
