Holy Smokes — We are at the final countdown! There are only 3 days left in the Challenge! Can you remember back to day 1? The thought of the end of the four weeks was daunting… For me – I have gone through different stages — excited, invigorated, fun, easy, hard, frustrating, boring, challenging. And now that we are days away form completing it, I am thinking about what a huge achievement this has for all of us!
I only know about the changes that I’ve heard about and can see when our paths cross at the gym, and just hearing about those are enough for me to be amazed. I can’t imagine what has happened that I will never even know about. Pounds and inches lost, habits changed, friendships created, people’s health forever altered, and lives transformed.
Each and every one of you, no matter how you tell yourself this went, is a different person for having put yourself in this game. You have gotten yourself trained, like it or not, in being control of every aspect of your life.
This doesn’t mean that you’ll always make choices easily, but you are on the track now to be present and in command of the choices you make! You now have proof that it absolutely can go the way you say it should go. You have tasted victory in the choices you have made and knowing you have the freedom to steer it in whatever direction you choose.
Remember,this awareness and training is a SKILL that needs to be put to use each and every day or it gets atrophy, just like your muscles. Slack off too much — you will have to work hard to get back on track but you do have the “muscle memory” when it comes to these skills too!
What’s next for you? How has your life changed in ways you expected and ways you could never have imagined?
“It’s a lifestyle – train like there’s no finish line.”
