Who doesn't love a good challenge? I like to think that I do, but when push comes to shove, I'm not sure I'm ever really up for completing them. To face a challenge, especially life changing ones, a person needs to arm themselves for a battle and believe they will succeed in the end.
Well, it seems that I have taken on a challenge today. I didn't wake up thinking I wanted to take the next six months to work on losing weight, but here we are. And yes I am.
If there was one area in my life that I have continually disappointed myself in, it's my health. I think I can count on one hand the amount of times I worked out in 2011, so this year with my spin obsession, I literally thought the weight would just fall off.
Well, it didn't.
And I realize that at my age and with my circumstances in life, I need a plan and a goal. A different plan other that winging it, I suppose.
So, I have my armor in tact, my plan in place (at least for this month), and a goal in mind that is SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Timely). Yes, my company's seminars have come in handy through the years.
And I'm putting it all out there for you to see.
If I can inspire just one person to take a six month challenge (okay, another person) I'll be happy.
Prepare for battle, my friends. It's a marathon, and we will finish it together.
