The story of my night

22:00 Because of a hard week I had I decided that I want to do something for the community and also to find a way how to reach my goals NOW. That is how one night challenge came to mind. I gave myself a goal that over this night I will do all I can to spread my message viral and find people that will motivate me to reach my goal and I will do the same for them.

22:10 I tried calling a couple of friends to find someone that would join me in this journey but everybody was doing something (It’s Friday night) but everybody was supportive as they could be and they gave me a lot of advice how I should proceed.

23:00 I went for a walk with my dog and listened to this (it always helps me think and motivates me more). And I came back with a plan.

23:15 I understood that I have to do everything by myself and started doing research whether there is anything like this. I was surprised that there is none (.com domain was taken by some religious people so I bought onenightchallenge.net).

I had to document everything in some kind of a way and made a little research how to stream. Decided to go with Twitch. Downloaded some recording app.

Decided not to go with Twitch. Let’s go Youtube!

24:00 I start creating a webpage.

01:00 Facebook page and Youtube channel are created. I post on my FB and LinkedIn “One Night Challenge has begun..”.

02:00 Made a video about One Night Challenge (I had to take a few takes). I will market this video via Adwords video marketing. The webpage is online.

03:00 Teach myself how to edit a video and I started doing Marketing phase.

04:00 Adwords account, campaign creating. Have to wait for the video to be approved.

05:00 Go to sleep for a few hours.

08:00 Wake up with a thought that such a shitty low quality video will not be approved by Google but happy to see that it is approved. Game on. I give myself a deadline for the stream to start. Finnish video marketing campaign and it’s ready to roll whenever I put money in it.

10:00 Coffee and planning on what to do next. Decide that there has to be some kind of blog post that would also document what I am doing so I start creating THIS post. I feel happy about on looking back on what I have accomplished this night already. Think whether I should have feel bad about going to sleep for a few hours and One Night Challenge looses it’s meaning if I didn’t do it over night. But decide that is a stupid thought to stop and I have to do what I started.

11:00 I’m trying to post this article and put it somewhere on the page.

11:42 I start marketing and telling everyone I know what I am doing. Right now after i press update. And I will do it all the time till the stream is Live. I hope there will be at least some people at the stream.. 🙂

13:00 Stream is live! YAY!

16:00 I made contact from people around the world. There were not a load of people, but I reached somebody 🙂

16:30 I end my One Night Challenge.

I will not stop here! Let’s motivate each other! I had a lot of great words from the people I contacted and I hope we can help each other to do what we crave!

NOW I CHALLENGE YOU TO SHARE WHAT YOU ARE PLANNING TO DO AND DO IT! LET’S MOTIVATE EACH OTHER!

Please Share this to your friend and show that there are more crazy people like you and me and we all are capable of huge things. It only takes one night to do something.
