What is 2Weeking?


2Weeking is a project dedicated to challenging yourself and exploring new ways of thinking and living. This site will feature a new challenge every two weeks that will ask you to make a simple change in your life. Although only one challenge will be featured every two weeks, we invite you to complete any of the 2Weeks on your own schedule. If you complete a 2Week you will get a 2Week Badge from our site! Sweet!

The Premise:
Each challenge lasts for only two weeks and will explore different lifestyles from diet to behavior, use of technology to environmental conservation.

Why 2 Weeks:
Two weeks gives an adequate amount of time to internalize these challenges, better understand other ways of life and begin to break harmful habits. After 2 weeks the choice is yours to make the challenge a full on "lifestyle change." But hey, at least you tried it out and got a sweet badge from this site!

2Weeking Philosophy:
As with all self improvement endeavors, it is important to have a supporting community. It is best to 2Week with a close friend or loved one- someone who will support you during the challenge. 2Weeking also provides a forum where you can share your experiences with other 2Weekers.

Start 2Weeking out!

2Week #8 April 5th - April 18th: Next to Godliness

"Cleanliness is next to godliness."

This 2week challenges us to keep our entire house clean for 2 weeks straight.

Look. We are 20 something year old bachelors. We know we live like slobs most of the time and our living space reflects our lack of cleanliness. A rare house cleaning happens once in a blue moon.

We also recognize that our house feels better when it's clean and we are happier when our surroundings are tidy. But, even with the knowledge of how to make ourselves feel better we usually let laziness overcome keeping a clean living space.

This 2week is about keeping it clean! On Monday we are going to do a massive full house clean. Dishes, floor, personal rooms, kitchen, bathroom the whole shebang. Then it is our personal charge to keep it that way for the next 2 weeks. When a mess is made we immediately clean it up. No more clothes strewn on the floors and couches. No more rotting dishes in the sink. We are cleaning up our act and keeping it that way!

And all of you shall bear witness to our solemn pledge. For those joining in, as with every 2week for some this may be easier than others.
