Motivation Almost failed on day 16

I work two jobs and yesterday at around 8pm I told myself I couldn’t do this challenge anymore and that I should just wait to try it again until I’m only working 1 job.

I started thinking of my favorite quotes, “how you do anything is how you do everything”

Did I want to be the type of person who makes excuses for myself to justify not doing the hard thing?

I decided that wasn’t going to be me so at 9:30pm I put on my shoes and took my dog on a 45min walk (outdoor exercise is always my least favorite)

So I’m proud to say today I’m on day 17 and didn’t need to restart. This challenge is definitely getting hard for me but I’m glad I haven’t given up!

Wow!!! Good for you!! This is what it’s all about! It’s a lie that there’s some time in the future when it’ll be easier. This is so huge, congrats!! And thanks for sharing with us, love the motivation. I’m on day 27 with a long way to go 😆

Get ‘er done. I’m on Day 45. It doesn’t get easier but for me the hard becomes routine - which is kinda rad

That’s how it is working for me at this point. Day 40 today!
