Seems like a cliché, but seriously....What are you waiting for? There is NEVER going to be an ideal time to workout, change your eating practices, read that self-help book, play in the floor with the kiddos without thinking of your to-do list, clean out the cabinets....whatever it is that you feel is necessary but too overwhelming to fit into your daily routine. STOP POSTPONING YOUR LIFE....because you are not guaranteed anything in life...especially the next day! Hug your loved ones, tell them you love them, spend time with them! AND TAKE CARE OF YOU for you and your loved ones!!!!
We are two weeks into this 12 week challenge and whether you are currently participating or putting it off until the "time is right", know that neither this 12 week challenge or anything in your life ever going to be PERFECT....It's not about perfection (timing or doing), but about doing your perfect best in each moment. By just trying to make the necessary changes in your life to be healthier and less stressed, you are making perfect strides towards a better life!
Think of it this way: We are talking about 12 weeks here....If you were ever pregnant, you are looking at having to take care of yourself for 40 weeks to nurture your emerging baby along to a healthy start. 40 weeks of eating better and more balanced, getting adequate sleep, taking daily vitamins, etc. So, why not take that same dedication for 12 weeks for you? Whether you take those 12 weeks 2 weeks at a time working on one habit at a time or whether you jump all in to 12 weeks of devoted dedication....you will see results! You will be stronger; you will feel better; you will be less stressed; you will have developed habits that no longer take effort to do.....You will actually have more time and energy for all the things you are currently 'putting off until (fill in the blank)!
Started the 12 weeks when I did but got sick or fell off the deep end already....reboot and start over! Didn't start the 12 weeks yet....start now! The 12 weeks do not have to be exact to my 12 weeks or a buddies 12 weeks....nor do they have to end at 12 weeks......If 12 weeks is overwhelming, then start with a habits exchange plan or go it 2 weeks at a time....For ideas check out the 2 and 4 week plans at Current Fitness Challenge along with all past and current options....Start Today!!!!!
If you would like some help with your Challenge goals, motivation, or accountability, I am available to help you. Just send me an e-mail at cagib1@charter.net.
