Day 164 of 365 new ways to a new you. Congratulations, you have made it this far. Today is the first day of the rest of your life. Are you ready for tomorrow? This is part of a series that is going to span 365 days. Some things will be subtle other activities will be more involved. At the end of the 365 days even if you do only 20 of these things you will be a new person, for better or for worse.

Before I begin with day 164, I must defer you to our Terms and Conditions .

It is one thing to feel alone it is another to actually be cut off and isolated. When one is truly alone, they may at first experience terror, but after terror comes something incredible.

Day 164: Spend the day alone
By now you have spent the day without tv, without radio, and even without the internet. Today spend the day in complete and total isolation. Do not talk to or listen to anyone. Keep yourself alone away from friends family and all interruptions. You may read books, draw, paint, or even cook. Pretend as if it is the end of time and you are the last person. Take action as if only you existed. Do this for an entire day.

It is only in solitude and isolation that we are truly able to begin to understand who we truly are. There is a reason why hermits existed.
