I’m learning. When I entered Eileen’s Challenge I was thinking it would be almost impossible for me to do well because I need to take a rest day from exercise at least every one day out of three. But, I’m so glad I did join.
First, immediately being in the challenge inspired me to quit taking my liberty with a dessert or such here or there (or, skipping meals). So, my food almost immediately straightened up.
And, yes, I still have to take at least one day out of every three as a rest day, but, the challenge has inspired me to do the harder workouts consistently, so I am usually getting two stars per workout.
And, I’m doing better than expected on the challenge, right up there with the top bloggers! WooHoo!
I’ve noticed that what is really helping me, more than anything, is my consistency. I’m not perfectly consistent, but with the help of this challenge I’ve really gotten better about consistency. It reminds me of a saying that I fully believe:
Consistency is the Key to Victory, or,
Consistency is the Key to success.
And I’m beginning to believe it. My weight loss had already slowed down before the first of this month so finding inspiration to get and stay more consistent has been priceless. Thanks, Eileen!
Finally, I’ve got my eyes more on what I’m doing right than what the scale says today. And, I’m learning that I *can* do consistency. Something I’ve had a big problem with all my life.
What’s your Key to Success?
