What it is

In this short talk from TED2011, Matt Cutts describes trying something new for 30 days at a time. He presents the 30-day period as an accessible, low-pressure way to overcome hesitation, try new habits and turn aspirations into action, and invites viewers to pick something they have always wanted to try.
