Have you ever felt frustrated with the results you are trying to get in your life? Have you ever felt like giving up? Have you ever felt like you aren’t good enough?
If so, keep reading…
I know I have had my fair share of those experiences, however I know how to pick myself up and keep moving forward. Watch this video to see how I handle failure. Also check out how I empowered my daughter as well when she felt like giving up.
I like sharing things that I have felt insecure about because it reminds us that we all experience this from time to time and to remember it is not a permanent state.
I remember feeling like a failure in blogging when I stopped making videos back in 2010 & I hardly posted anything. However, I picked myself up and started back at it. Even cooler, now I am serving people whom I would have never bumped into in my local community thanks for the internet.
I remember feeling like a failure when it came to broken romantic relationships, but I have learned how to keep loving anyway. I am thankful I keep an open heart and see the beauty in the experiences of love itself.
I remember feeling like a failure when I was hardly eating any raw food and eating mostly junk, but I just start again with my green smoothies for breakfast.
When I feel like I am just not getting it, I ask myself, ” Have I done this a thousand times?” If not, I give myself a break and keep on going! 😉
I’d love to hear in the comments below what you kept practicing at and are glad you didn’t give up!
I did it ! I did it!!! Woo hoo I FREAKING DID IT!!!
Original Intention
Establish the healthy habit of daily exercise
Goal
30 min a day X 30 days= 15 hours
Actual Hours Completed
52 1/2 hours
Commitments
Make Your Workouts Fun- DONE!
Incorporate Variety- DONE!
Incorporate Your Relationships (kids, lovers, friends, family, co-workers, etc..)- WANT TO DO MORE OF THIS!
Work up a Sweat- DONE!
Honor Your Intuition and Your Limitations (know the perfect balance of too much and not enough)- DONE! I feel stronger and am pain/injury free
Get Good Rest (this will really help your workouts)- DONE! My typical sleep pattern is to rest between 10-6
Breathe while working out. (try to keep it in a nice rhythm, even if it’s faster)- DONE!
Hydrate (how else do you expect all the junk in your body to get washed out?)- NEEDS IMPROVEMENT, somedays I was inconsistent
Exercise 30 mins Daily & post it as a comment on my blog- DONE!
Leave Your Workout Spot in Better Condition than When You Showed Up- DONE! My house is spiffy too! 🙂
I have some areas I would like to improve, but overall I FAR surpassed my original goal! As far as my weight, measurements, and body fat go I did not measure those things for this challenge. I feel strongly that being fit and performing daily physical activities are just a natural part of a healthy lifestyle. I focused on enjoying my able body and watching myself grow. I have great momentum on a life long healthy habit and I am sure more physical results will continue to emerge!
