Challenge Day

challenge day is a commercialized movement made popular by oprah winfrey where groups of over 100 people fork over thousands of dollars to be led in large scale touchy- feely group exercises and group therapy. a one day event, challenge day uses manipulative tools such as sad music and imagining one’s death to get people to partic-p-te in the activities. many consider challenge day to be a cult, citing that partic-p-nts are not allowed to discuss challenge day activities with those tho did not partic-p-te, the use of hand symbols, cryptic messages, and people’s absolute faith in the so called cause. many also cite the idea that challenge day can be detrimental to a person’s health and well being in that it attacks a person’s emotions in the form of large scale group therapy, but does not offer any sort of follow-up with the partic-p-nts.

challenge day is a self-help workshop, typically spanning over a period of 3 days.. this is performed in large groups of people ranging from a student body, coworkers, and even strangers. this program encourages people to accept one another and to embrace the challenge of being a nicer, less judgemental human being. it’s a good program.. it kind of worked for me but i didn’t have enough positivity in my life to keep it up.. but for many people out there, challenge day was life changing….
after challenge day, i immediately noticed that almost every negative interaction/event i had posed as a challenge, and i sought out ways to overcome the challenge.. then one day, i was too lazy and gave up. so now i’m back to my evil ways.
