Ever noticed how we build walls around our dreams with "someday" and "when it's perfect"? I've seen this pattern repeat in our global community - brilliant ideas staying trapped behind the walls of perfectionism and procrastination.
That's why I created the 8*8 Challenge: 8 questions, 8 minutes each. And yes, it's 8 minutes because as dancers, we live with counting eights in our minds! 💃
Join Our Next Session!
Date: Monday, March 18th, 2024 Time: 7:55 PM SGT (Log in and send a 👍) Where: GEH Core Tribe WhatsApp Group Duration: 8 rounds of 8 minutes each
How It Works
Show up five minutes before we start at 8 PM SGT. For each challenge, you get exactly 8 minutes to create something you've been putting off. No editing. No overthinking. Just pure creation.
The 8 Breakthrough Challenges (try it at home)
1. Write Your Opening Chapter (8 Minutes)
That book you've been dreaming about? Write its first paragraph. Don't worry about perfection - just let your heart speak on the page.

2. Record Your Story (8 Minutes)
Create a 2-minute video sharing one turning point in your journey. Just hit record and speak authentically. This becomes your first piece of content.

3. Start Your Podcast/YouTube Journey (8 Minutes)
Record your show's introduction. Introduce yourself and your why. Raw, real, and ready to go.
4. Launch Your Teaching Journey (8 Minutes)
Create and share one specific tip about something you're good at. Could be cooking, tech, speaking - whatever you know well.
5. Craft Your Pitch (8 Minutes)
Write a 3-sentence pitch about your dream project. Short, clear, from the heart. This becomes your elevator pitch.

6. Begin Your Blog (8 Minutes)
Write your first blog post opening. Share what you'd tell a friend about your topic. No editing - just write.

7. Create Your Symbol (8 Minutes)
Draw a simple symbol representing your growth journey. Use anything - even your phone's drawing app. This becomes your personal brand starter.

8. Share Your Expertise (8 Minutes)
Create your first social media post about your expertise. One tip, one story, or one lesson. This launches your online presence.

The Results? Nothing Short of Amazing
In our last session, we witnessed:
A member writing their first blog post after 2 years of hesitation
Someone finally launching their newsletter
A participant recording their podcast intro
Multiple people crafting their personal stories
Several members creating their first pitch videos
Are these creations perfect?
No. But they're real, they're done, and they're out in the world.
Why This Works
Time Pressure: 8 minutes creates just enough urgency to bypass your inner critic
Community Support: Knowing others are creating alongside you provides courage
Permission to be Imperfect: We celebrate progress over perfection
Immediate Results: You leave with something tangible
Momentum Building: Each small win creates confidence for the next challenge

The Magic Ingredients
Sometimes all we need is:
A supportive community
A clear time limit
Permission to be imperfect
Remember: Your story matters. And it doesn't need to be perfect to be powerful.
Can't Wait Until March 18th?
Pick any of the 8 challenges above. Set your timer for 8 minutes. Create without judgment. Share with someone you trust.
Because here's the truth: It's not about the time - it's about the decision to start. Eight minutes might seem short, but it's long enough to break through the wall of procrastination and prove to yourself that you can create.
What will you create in your next 8 minutes?
Join us on Monday, March 18th at 7:55 PM SGT for our next session. Because sometimes, all it takes is 8 minutes to start something amazing.
