I am at the half way mark of my first goal. I'm a little amazed, considering last week I'd gained a pound. I'm only guessing that this is payoff for three weeks, not just one.
This past week I walked 5 out of six days. I made flash cards of Psalm 139 and memorized the chapter while I walked on my treadmill. (May I just say that was a GREAT idea! Oh, I feel your applause!) Yesterday morning was so pleasant I walked through the 'hood.
I was mostly consistent, but I have to admit that I am really fighting these weekends. It is an area of my life that I can't explain...yet. Freedom is coming.
I have joined Loretta's Just 1 Thing Consistency Challenge, and my goal was to just be consistent with what I'm trying to accomplish. I've certainly been consistent. Consistently messing up my weekends. I found an old Weight Watcher's booklet and it had a quiz in it that pin points where you might need extra help. My biggest scorer was "Monitor Yourself." Ya think? A high second was "Prepare Yourself." I wonder if I prepared a plan to monitor myself a little more on the weekends....
After reviewing my goal, I really think I missed the idea on what Loretta was trying to challenge in us. Maybe my goal should have been more specific like "Monitor Myself" or "Prepare Myself."
I need some of your determination. Been so lazy and down that I can not get my butt out of a chair to exercise. I get up for other things but not exercise.
ReplyDeleteWeeelllll.... if I did my Just 1 Thing the way you did yours, it might've been something like: be consistent on everything I'm already workin on.
ReplyDeleteSo, it's nothing new. And vague. A moving target. And I'd have to track a half dozen things to see if I was doing it.
I didn't WANT to focus on that many things. I was tired! LOL!!
But I figure everybody should do it the way that works for them. But if you need to adjust it, that's fine with me, too!
Maybe you'd like one such as: each night, jot down a quick plan for the next day. (prepare yourself). Or something like that??
In other words, what ACTIONS would you take to Prepare Yourself. Something simple and trackable... I did it, yes or no.
You'll think of what will work for YOU. :-)

I think you are just where you are supposed to be.
