Continue this project by building a platform which enables everybody to challenge themselves to make the world a better place. An idea from Maarten

This project is almost finished and in a way that's good, since I'm ready to start deciding myself again what I do each month :-) But at the same time it's a pity since I don't only love doing these challenges, I also believe strongly that it's a great way of causing positive change within myself and my surroundings. And wouldn't it be great if anybody could experience that and join in, share, inspire, help etc...
So, I thought as a final challenge to build a platform which enables anybody to start their own challenge, which then everybody can join and makes it possible for you to share your experiences about, creating an inspiring and positive loop for everybody - as a result making the world a better place :-) In a sense, this project, but then for everybody and even better :-)
And then this platform will be launched on the same day that I finish iwantomaketheworldabetterplace.com. During www.abetterplace.io :-)
Of course building a platform (in a month) is a little bit of work, especially if you want it to be awesome :-) So I'm not doing it alone and if you want to join, that would make it even more awesome. How? Join in the conversation...
I think you might also write a book (eBook with multimedia contect) about your year. Could well be inspiring for other.
I kind of want to see another year of this project. It seems to grow a bit every months
More people told me to write a book, maybe I should find a ghostwriter though, because it takes so much time!! :-)
@Paul, well, like this the project will continue! And I will still do challenges myself as well, so in a way, you will see another year, just a little bit different :-)
I think you might talk with a tv-producer-company, they can make 12 episodes out of that and sell to the broadcasters.
Joining the book proposal!
Amazing idea! Thanks Maarten for being willing to do all that work
@Maarten Writing a book should take about 100 days :-) (or so a book with that title is lying on my desk... )
What do you guys actually think, should this new platform be in English or Dutch?
UK
UK and Nederlands, vergroot je bereik..;-) voor een betere wereld
Writing books is so 2012, let's make a cocreation-movie about your year and an educational project for children and students.
BTW in English would be better, so other countries can participate swell.
