Challenge #7

LIST THREE (or more) THINGS YOU LIKE ABOUT YOURSELF. They don’t have to be your favorite things, just things that you think are good. Feel free to expand as much or as little as you want.

1. I'm pretty consistent with certain things, like fitness and staying on a meal plan. I have been doing weight training every weekday or everyday for three years.

2. I tend to put myself out there, despite not wanting to and preferring to stay home.

3. I'm able to go out and do things on my own, which on hindsight, I realized is not a common thing? I enjoy things in my own way, so it's good for me to skip making plans and just do my own thing.

I do wish I could be more consistent! I start off things with all good intentions but then the desire and enthusiasm fizzles out :(

It's not easy. If it were easy, everyone would be doing it. I have a why, which is I don't want to have clogged arteries (LOL!) and I want a strong back. NGL. A lot of people struggle with it, so just know you're not alone.

If anything just have like fitness blocks where you try new things and challenges. If it fizzles out, switch it up every month. Have some sort of diary, even a video log (online and offline) works well. I use an agenda. I have an agenda to I do 100 day challenges.

We spend our ENTIRE lives figuring ourselves out. Me too! I just learned something about myself last week. The age old advice is "do what works for you." My friends all go together and realized we all hate running so she chose a different cardio routine and I chose dancing.

I liked your list. Doing your own thing is awesome.

Thanks! Going out alone is super not common? I thought it was more normal but makes sense.

All three of those things are fantastic, especially in combination. Consistency helps you stick with things, putting yourself out there means you get to experience new things, and being able to do things on your own means that you don't miss all that many opportunities for new things, or to pick up things that will become neat and enjoyable habits for yourself.

I agree! All three do work well together. At first the judgement was tough at first but I got to experience things that I would not have if I chickened out so that was also good.
