So I have decided to break my challenges up into smaller periods. Last month, I decided to challenge myself to run a mile every day for the month of June. Needless to say I didn't exactly meet that challenge because I missed a few days, however, I still feel like I accomplished something because on many of the days that I didn't run, I got out of the house and walked A LOT- like at least 3 miles, and sometimes more than that. And really the whole point of a challenge is to push yourself beyond where you started at. However, what I did learn is that 30 day challenges are hard. I mean, I know they are supposed to be hard, or it wouldn't be called a challenge, but I learned one thing about myself. I learned that, right now, my goals need to more attainable. 30 days is a long amount of time. I need much shorter time frame so that I meet goals. In addition, I have learned that I need to find one focus and stick with that. When I try to add all kinds of other things like running and the bubble butt challenge and so forth, it becomes harder to keep up with it all and I am more likely to give up. So, with that said, I am now challenging myself to something new. And it's something I need to do because my health is starting to deteriorate again. So starting today here are my goals for 21 days:
1) Eat gluten free
2) Practicing Reiki
3) journaling the 21 day journey to have proof as to whether it at all works or not (because really, if for some odd reason gluten doesnt change the way I feel, then I sure as heck don't want to give it up forever! I mean I do love me some bread and pasta!)
So there it is. It is important for me to throw my thoughts out into the universe instead of keeping them bottled in. I find that when I say things aloud, then they are more likely to actually happen. The universe works in mysterious ways.
