As you can see, I'm combining both July and August assessments into one blog, due to the fact I've been so busy these last few months, I didn't have time to write for July. I was busy getting things ready for the first TIGHT BODY 30 DAY CHALLENGE which began August 1st.
So, how are you? How are you doing with your goals for the year? Are you reaching that one goal that's kept you sidetracked for far too long? Perhaps, you've already reached it? Are you making baby steps? Or are you plain struggling?
If you haven't committed to a TIGHT BODY 30 DAY CHALLENGE yet, then NOW'S THE TIME! This CHALLENGE is set up to help you succeed, and discover much about yourself along the way. Do it!
HOW DO I FEEL ABOUT YOUR GOALS?
1. If you've reached your goal(s), I'm sure you're well on your way to mastering several others in your life. You see, as you overcome that one issue that's kept you from so much in your life (as it has kept you from progressing in every area of your life), doors begin to open, people come into your life, and opportunities arrive in bundles. Your eyes have been 'opened' to the many possibilities in your life. There's nothing to hold you back.
2. If you're making progress, well, progress is progress. You're on the right track. Stop expecting perfection of yourself and accept the fact you're human. Recognize your accomplishments and keep pressing forward. Eliminate doubt, eliminate the crutches in your life, and stand tall. Face yourself with every ounce of energy you have, it's well worth it. Keep plugging along. If you sense you're dragging your feet, procrastinating, or know you could be doing better, THEN DO IT! No excuses. You must live with yourself, so do so with peace of mind.
3. If you're still struggling, have you considered getting professional help? Someone who can perhaps help you understand your thoughts, feelings, and actions? Objective opinions and insights can prove valuable, because too many times, people get 'locked' into their own thoughts, own ideals, own perceptions, which are quite frequently false, hurtful, harmful, and keep you from seeing the truth.
Books can be helpful, as well, however, keep in mind these people and resources are there to guide you, they cannot do for you, what you must do for yourself.
I highly encourage you to keep pressing forward. Never settle for where you're at. Look ahead. Prepare. Plan. Execute. Sure, stop to smell the roses, enjoy the moments, and make a record of your progress, but then pick-up and head out. Look around you, opportunity abounds. Believe in yourself.
HELPFUL HINT
Get out. Get away. Go someplace you've never been before. Dress completely different. Act different if you want to. Sometimes, people get so 'ingrained' in their environments, the environment itself can become an obstacle.
For instance, say you always watch the same show, the same night, in the same chair, and eat the same junk, every night. After a while, this becomes autopilot! You automatically turn on the t.v., go to the fridge, etc., and repeat the same behavior over, and over, and over again. This type of situation must be stopped, as it's a very real, and dangerous place to be. You're no longer even thinking about your actions! Ditto if you feel you can't go a night without the episode, or sit in the same chair, watch the program, and NOT have the junk. Do you understand where I'm coming from.
YOUR HABITS WILL MAKE YOU
OR BREAK YOU!
What type of habits do you have? Write them all down, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Start with the good, give yourself a pat on the back! Go to the ugly and bad, and understand these habits are keeping you from reaching your full potential! Do something about them!
Hence, the TIGHT BODY 30 DAY CHALLENGE! Eliminate them one at a time, month by month, and replace them with something better, healthy, etc. Replace the t.v. show with a brisk walk, or run. Replace the junk with a refreshing glass of water, some fresh veggies, and a few nuts.
CHANGE YOUR ACTIONS =
CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
I always think,
"Damn, I don't want to be laying in a coffin someday, and not ever know what my life would have been like if I took action."
Don't take ANY day for granted. Get off your ass and do something about the things in your life you can't stand, as no one else is going to do it for you.
Onto month nine!
Health,
Jill
