90 Day Challenge Results

I failed.

(But I didn't.)

I succeeded, YOU succeeded, no matter what the scale says!

Just because you didn't meet your goal doesn't mean you failed this 90-day challenge. If you participated in this challenge then you succeeded, no matter what the "results" show!


But How? 



For 90 days YOU were accountable to yourself for the choices you made. You were conscious of every good decision that outweighed a bad alternative AND you were conscious of each bad choice you made over the good one. You knew that every decision you made effected YOUR 90-day outcome.



Guess what? 



Day 90 is not the end!!! You just spent 90 days developing new habits by making those decisions and knowing how they would effect your outcome. That doesn't magically stop on day 91. You will still be in the habit of thinking about the choices you are making. Keep going! This is your new path. Sometimes we choose the wrong direction, that's okay. The important part is that you get back to the right one eventually.

Day 60 Quick Update

I had a sudden realization, with some horror, that it was time to make my 60 day update. Why the horror? I realized I didn't really have much to report. I've had more downs than ups the last 30 days but I do plan to kick it into high gear for the next 30 days. 

Thankfully it's been nice enough out now to FINALLY go out walking. Luckily I know have two walking partners who motivate me and in return I hope I motivate them. There have been some chilly walks, but the weather for the next little while looks great.

Your results aren't always going to be what you want. Your results aren't always going to be what you expect. The important thing is that you don't give up. Keep on reaching for your goals.
