    CHALLENGES
There is one sure way to keep yourself moving toward a life of health and fitness: setting small achievable goals. Let’s call these smaller goals challenges to your ultimate goal of reaching the level of health you desire. By calling them “CHALLENGES” it puts your attention on bringing out your potential, rather than making it a job.

Let’s say it brings out the playful qualities we once had as children. Remember a time when a childhood friend may have said something like: “I bet you can’t (__fill in the blank___):” maybe jump rope a 100 times in a row, or whatever you did as a kid. At that time, you were being challenged! And you wanted to prove to your friends, and more importantly yourself that yes you could do it! So let’s take the same approach to bring out that fun “child-like” emotion that we had toward accomplishing our goals today!

Over the years I have hosted a 3-month challenge that provided you a new or fresh perspective on the road of health. I have found these challenges to be helpful because we all need “challenges” in our lives to keep us motivated. While we desire to lose weight and be more fit, our breakdowns in our efforts seems to come from looking at the peak of the mountain and thinking about the time and difficulty to reach the peak. Every great accomplishment takes time and consistency.

You know when you’re moving toward the peak (your goals) by the actions you are taking. And really, that’s the only thing you can control today. So let’s breakdown your goals (weight-loss in particular) into smaller “challenges” on a daily and a weekly basis. These are suggested ones that you may have seen or done in some form in one of my programs.

As you view this, you will understand their importance in your daily life!
