Challenge Yourself
On July 2, I attended an amazing mentoring session with my life coach and mentor, entitled:"Challenge Yourself". I was inspired to make some significant changes in my life, regarding my overall health and wellness. So, on July 4, I made the decision to challenge myself to achieve optimal health. I committed to getting up at 4:50AM every morning to workout and optimize my body. So, the journey began.
Since that time, I started a self-challenge called, Optimal Health Challenge, to help me maintain consistency in working out daily. Getting up early was a real challenge at first, because I just wanted to sleep. That's no longer an issue, and I am feeling fantastic! Please note, I am not on a fast sprint to just lose weight, but instead a journey of eating healthier, exercising consistently, achieving my ideal weight, and maintaining great health for the rest of my life.
The main point of this article, is that I had to personally find ways to stay motivated, consistent and dedicated to the challenge that I had set for myself. Every morning while working out, I take a moment to PAUSE and voice memo a message to myself about what I feeling at that moment. This has ended up evolving into my Optimal Health Challenge - Thought of the Day posts, which are shared on my Instagram, Facebook and Twitter sites every morning. I wanted to take a minute to share a few of those thoughts with you, in hopes of inspiring you to achieve your "Optimal Health".
