    I am now on my second week of my challenge and so far I have found it decently interesting. The first couple days I found myself forgetting to turn off the water right away when I start brushing since before this challenge I would just have the water running during the duration of brushing my teeth. Yet, after the first couple days mistakes of not turning off the water right away I found that it became almost natural to turn it off right away. I feel as if this challenge has helped me see that having the water running the whole time is not only selfish to those without clean and running water but also very wasteful. All in all this challenge has gave me a life long habit and a better perspective on how the little things really make a difference.

      How awesome if trying something for a short challenge can lead to a lifelong habit change!
